Holy Cow

Dam Brian. I think we have something in common with Hinton now. I remember getting about that high in FEH there. I took a trip to the hospital as well. he DR there told me boat racing was to dangerous and I should stop. I had a few choice words for him too about Dr's.

Glad you are healing up.

Thanks for asking Tom,i'm getting around pretty good,just limping a little...and waiting to get back in the rocket....i mean runabout

[Dave M]

You Sure

Brian,

You sure you need a runabout ? I mean we grew up racing hydros ya know. I blew over my FER the first weekend I raced it at Huntington IN. I don't run FER anymore. Ma said she would take a hammer to the boat if I ever tried it again. I believed her for once.

I'm glad you're OK.
Like others, I know how traumatic a high speed blowover can be.
Brian, at what speed would you estimate this blowover occurred? Thanks.

[DMH21SS]

DaveM-we have plenty of 750 and 850 hydros.I want to help the big runabout classes.

Thanks Jeff, i'm guessing around 85-90mph

I was at Huntington in the pits about 150 yards away when you blew over. The most violent sight and sound I have ever seen, and you never left the boat. Lyle was cool but your mom was a wreck. I believe you were a half lap ahead and that was the last lap. That was a fast boat.

Better Pictures

Brian,

I know how it feels to slowly mend. Hope all is well and if you're so inclined we love to see you at Akron.

Jeff

PS - Doesn't the landing suck? Mend well and rapidly, friend. I was looking at a photo today of you and I racing B runabouts at Zanesville on the river. Time does fly.
