  • Banks Lake Wa May 14th,15th and 16th

    I did not think I would ever get done but we are loaded and ready for our first race. It could be a cold one. The weather has not been good and we could be chipping ice.

    This will be so much nicer working out of a trailer for the first time. Just have to pay double the fuel since we are now taking two tow rigs

        Daren called and he wants his trailer back........................just kidding, looks like you might need a bigger one in a few years!!! I will have it ready by then.......

        Jeff stated the #1 rule.........NEVER tally up the racing costs!!!!

        PS: 2 more boats on top and you WILL be loaded down.

          Daren, it has been raining like Seattle over here this year and I tried everything to get the roof rack to stop leaking. It was like a waterfall in the back. No luck so I removed it and plugged the holes. No more leakage so if we need to I will use the two boat rack for the truck that we had been using.

          Maybe in a couple years when you get a CDL and really big trailer we can sell this one and trade up

              If anyone is interested this course is our biggest one of the year and is a tri-oval shape with a long front strait away and a slight turn in the back stretch just to make it interesting. You can really get going on this one.

                  Not sure of the size all I can say is it is bigger than Eatonville.

                      Holy crap... your loaded and ready?!?! Team-SS-Racing is still trying to get 2 SEH's put together... and we've been working on stuff all through the winter which is an absolute first. So much for trying to be "ready".

                      I'm probably still out for at least these first two, so I'm hoping Teresa can take pictures for me. Good luck all!!

                          At this point it's looking like probably not. Plan is 2 boats with Dad and George. Mike and I will be trying to help out when we can. The house is done, but it still has enough left over "bites" that it's gonna keep him on the beach for the most part.

                          We'll see for sure as the plans for SS seem to be full of fluidity. ;-)
