Online they're showing a rate of $159.99 per night. Are they offering something better by phone? The Econolodge in Easton is $109, same question for them.

Ray,

I am trying to round up the gang again for this weekend, so try to pit with us again. You will get to see me wear the Steve Speas SPECIAL HAT AWARD for my screw up at the last race. As of now I know Steve, Jim, Scott and myself are going. I am pretty sure Don Ferrette is coming also. I am trying to work a deal to get John F to come back up for this race and I hope it works out. Had a good time seeing ya again at the last race.

Steve, It was great seeing you again. Better then that was seeing Scott trying to kick the old mans butt. Ray

Ray,

Scott will most likely kick da old mans butt at this up coming race as he threw down the challange on our ride home from the race. If his carb and throttle linkage hadn't come loose on the new stock engine he probaly would have beat me in stock gas and in F mono. He used to kick my butt in 40 mono when he was only 11 years old!! He had a great time with us old farts at the race and is really looking forward to the next race.

 

[John Finch]

Better check for orange paint on the right side of his boat. He scraped buoy two every lap trying to catch Dad.

You can't screw up with him following you around the course or he will stick it in there and take it away! I'm sure his strategy to start last until he gets back into the swing of things will change at the next race. Look out!!!!! The man has a wild animal inside just busting to come out!!

Yea Steve he has to maintaine da boat but dad pays for the parts. Hopefully he will be a little more careful so he does not have to work on it so much, but he likes to work on them once he figures out the problems. He needs to figure out how not to rub the paint off the bouys and look for better options as to when he can pass!!. See ya all tomorrow at the race site, and look forward to another great weekend of racing and being with my racing buddies.

Hmmm, I guess everyone was overwhelmed by the heat! I'll be the first to say thanks to everyone for the hospitality. I had a great time.

Don managed to keep the shiny side up and avoided the DNFs on his riggers. Unfortunately, Joe's stayed on the stand after some fuel flow diagnosis on Friday. Don will have to give the details on that.

RTR got more interesting after we changed the format. Instead of the full course for the entire race, we did the full course for the mill and first lap only. Then we went to a short course by going around bouys 4, 5, 6 and the start and back entrance bouys. To make up for the lost distance, we increased to 8 laps. As one of the drivers, I'll say that the shorter straights and extra turns made the race much more fun.

I got some really interesting pics that I'll post when I get a chance. They show the "other" side of racing and racers.

Ray, Scott kicked me to the curb in stock gas as we were tied for 2nd place going into the final round. He told me the heat was on and he did beat me and kick me to the curb. Earl Eber won Stock gas and Gas Mono. Earl and Scott had a run off for first place in Gas Mono and Scott cut bouy #3 on the first turn trying to keep his stock boat ahead of Earl. Earl was on fire this weekend and won or placed in most all of his gas class events. Steve Speas won Gas Cat as he finally got the boat working. Don won F Hydro and Gas Rigger. I snook off with 3rd place in stock gas. Look forward to seeing ya all down at da Chesapeake Race. Nice job again done by the Delmarva Model Boat Club picking up the race and running the race for the Capitol RC Boat Club. There was some pretty good racing going on at this event. Good luck to all of the District 12 members heading off to the Gas Nationals, Go Getter Done!!!!!
