Any word on the driver??? Looked really bad from the launch ramp at Crown Point. No speakers down at the launch ramp.

Fortunately it landed right side up. But I'm pretty sure it was a mess. I didn't see them tow it back, but then again, I was on the other side of the bay.

Well I received these photos yesterday and they were awesome. I could have sold them to the Union Tribune LOL. They would have made the cover of the local paper :).

Great timing and shots.

I did not make it to the booth this year to get some swag or at a minimum a coozie.

Oh well great weekend but really we need the drag boats back. I miss the smell of race fuel in the A.M. and Oh the sound like Mozart for gear heads.

Stay at the amateur level then. The minute you go pro and start getting paid, the luck will go away.

Not sure if making the paper is good or bad? Maybe more ammo for the haters :D

Yeah I was being selfish...the circulation of the Tribune is 375,000 people with photo credit to HOTBOAT.COM.

Yup I was being selfish site driven and such laughing.

Now seriously in racing it is expected i.e...crash and burn... a whole other story if you have a fatality versus a blowover and everyone is OK!

Great photos!
