Thanks to the race committee for a great job at Dayton this year. Many of us that host races know how much work is involved.....most do not stop to think how hard it that would be without the support network a traditional racing club brings. DRRA is an organization, but it isn't a racing club so it doesn't have the resources or luxury of hosting a race with the help of 30-50 member volunteers. Instead the race committee is made up of racers, other clubs, and supporters from all over the midwest who love the sport. Ed, you and the committee choreographed a great weekend of racing. Weather is a factor at all races but sometimes it becomes such a big factor that racing cannot be safely continued. You all made the right decision at the right time. Moving the course to the quiet end of the lake isn't an option at most races. Too bad the wind continued to increase.
To all who pitched-in to help....THANKS! Remember, even when there are only 3 boats on the race course, it takes about 20 others (scorers, timers, judges, towing, referee, race director, pit boss, announcer, inspectors, rescue, flaggers, etc to make it happen. Great racing in Dayton. Thanks to all who helped. Congratulations to the new record holders. Mike Marshall, Raceboat 61-S
