This is correct - I was there and video tapped Joe's first run over 100 and then Andy's subsequent 100mph runs. I still the old VCR tape somewhere. Now trying to watch a VCR tape these days another thing :D
Dear Mike,
So sorry to hear of your loss! My deepest condolences to you and your family! I have found memories of the races your family and the TVMBC hosted at the London pond. She was definitely a big part of them...
Stay strong my friend....
Wishing you a speedy recovery Brad....we haven't seen each other since the 2000 Internats in Moline,.... Happy to see you are still very active in the hobby.

It might work well to cover the main hull and maybe even the sponons....
So sorry hear this news... We had the pleasure of racing and getting to know Stan and his Dad at some of the internats in the late 90's. Great people! My sincerest condolenses Stan to you and your Family....
