I'm a huge fan of the ESPN 30/30 series of films. I'm not sure if they are doing a whole film or if this is just a short.

I have read some of the stories about Don Aronow but honestly didn't know how involved he was with some of todays biggest names in performance boating.

I enjoyed the show, but was disappointed that they tried so hard at the end to leave you with the impression that Kramer wasn't behind the hit. Although Kramer idolized Don in the beginning, once he realized that he was played for a chump in the business deal and that Don really thought he was a punk, he was livid. I don't know where they got some of the people they interviewed who were suppose to be 'close' to Don, they weren't the inner circle that I knew at the races. The show also barely touched the surface of the drug smuggler culture that permeated the sport of offshore in the late 1970s and early '80s -- there were a lot more racers involved than the brief clip of headshots that they used, although Morales was definitely the big fish. Kramer still owes me some money, but I don't think I'm going to press the issue -- he's just fine where he is right now.

This an intriguing post, very cool to hear from someone in the know.
