Chris did get some seat time in today, and loved the boat.. He was just getting the feel for it and lost the motor. We will find out how bad the damage is tomorrow, but we should still make Parker.

It does, but we are glad it happened in testing and that we even had the chance to test. Better out there rather than next weekend at the race.. He got a little bit of a feel for it and we know a few things that need to be tweaked. So, we are looking at it as a positive thing.

Glad to hear about more seat time. Sucks about the motor.

A wise man once told me "that's racing", can't let it get you down.. This stuff happens. And that's the way I try to look at it. We doit because we love it and have fun doing it.. If we start stressing about it, then it won't be fun anymore. 😃

I would like to thank Dave Noyes and also the great rescue crew that came in for the Irvine test session. We learned a few things and Chris got some valuable seat time. Joe Irick has got the engine apart and seams to be not to bad. We had a water delivery problem and all is being delt with. Good news is we will be ready for Parker and get Chris more seat time. It's great to be with merged with this hard working dedicated crew.
Thank you to our sponsors and the local NRKA help.

Rough day on the lake. But the good news is it's only metal and fiberglass. Glad everyone's ok to race another day.

Your dedication is inspiring. Thank you for sharing with us. We certainly appreciate it.
