  • DePue Saturday Racing

    Long day of racing due to lots of spills and hit bouys in the second set of racing. Pete Voss was hurt in 500cc runabout, I believe a bruised or broken hip, as 3 boats came together at the start. No other injuries.

    Brandon Thirlby wan 700cc hydro. I believe that Rich Krier beat out a very, very tough 250cc runabout field (great racing!!). Zach Mahiot won a duel in 350cc hydro over Jeff Kugler. Mike Thrilby prevailed in 500cc runabout. IO apologize that I did get the antique results. Lots of gun jumpers and a few spills with old iron. Buddy Tennell won the 175cc world championships.

    It appears that the racers reunion is a success and it is great to see some old racing equipment on display.

    Sunday's racing includes 23 125cc hydro's, 20 250cc hydro's, 12 1100cc hydro's, 8 1100cc runabouts and 13 350cc runabouts. It should be an outstanding day of racing. Big money for the winner of the 1100 class.

      David,

      700 runabout has not been run in over 20 years.

      Too fast and scarey.

        I know that it hasn't run in a long time - just wondering why?

          Got going too fast for the boats and participation dropped off, so the class was terminated.
