I've seen post from you but never gathered that you were a boat racer. Fast shit is so cool but I'm sure really expensive and time consuming. Beautiful pics you posted up there.
yes I'm Eddie..and with time I'll post more pic..thanks..

Hannes Wernherdt drove this boat, (he wrecked the other SHOWTIME in Chowchilla) So then we built this one..In the end, Hannes went on to run his own boat(State Of Shock) I helped him with that one...then I ended up going to NHRA helping on Kurt Schendels A-fuel Dragster..Mind you I'm a Blown Alcohol guy but when I first saw the potential of 100% nitro in A-fuel..I was sold..when they changed the rules on us (dropped percentage of nitro) the blown cars seem to have an edge...But now I sit back and relax..I'll be in Pomona hangng with Rizzoli or Meirsch, but these days I rather BBQ and drink beer at the races..I remember years ago when some of the ole timers showed me how to wrench these things..man we got things turned around in 90 minutes...and we got quicker in between rounds..thats when the weekend was over and I needed days off to relax..I spent my last season with Rizzoli before he took the car out for a full tour with Aarron Oliverez driving.. I have a full time job..so I opted out..It was fun..In boat racing, there's alot more spectator involvement..(the woman love the boats and they seem to want to take more pics on the boats)..
