Alright guys and gals, the 4th of July weekend is coming up faster than a TOP HYDRO, and you need to make sure you are pre-registered for the race, and take care of your hotel reservations in the next few days. The Comfort Inn & Suites at 3675 South 6th Street Springfield, IL 62703 217-529-8898 is hour host hotel and you have to make your reservation by the 19th of June to take advantage of this great rate.
Our sponsor is pulling out all the stops with a great weekend of racing and other family activities, including fireworks to be had that weekend.
We are looking forward to the beginning of Speed Month as I stated a few weeks ago, as following Springfield, we go a few hundred miles to Constantine, Mi on the 24th to the 26th of July and then trek about 4 hours to the racing capital of America, Depue, Illinois with our great sponsor, The Depue Men's Club, ready for a wonderful National's weekend. Whew, tired just writing that, let alone living it, but what a fun month of boat racing will be had.
Class races for the coveted USTS Hi Point Championship has many close contests.
K-Pro has Parker Thirlby with a third place point lead over Mackenzie Hellsten
125H David Tenny has a 119 point lead on Pete Kelly
125R David Jones has just a 100 point lead over Brandon Mills
175H Jon Wiendant holds a 100 point lead over Ray Hammond
250H Amy Nydahl is just 100 points ahead of Brian Palmquist
250R has Brian Payn leading Paule Bosnich by a scant 100 points
350H Amy is leading Ike Yoder by 350 points in her 2nd class up
350R Tim Small holds a 100 point lead over Paulie Bosnich
500H Jim Wright has a 100 point lead over Ike Yoder
500R Kurtis Nydahl holds a 300 point lead over Pete Voss
700R Andrew Thirlby carries a 100 point lead on Derek Gesler.
So as you see, very close points chase that is going to be really fun to watch as we complete the Speed Month, culminating in the USTS Nationals at Depue, beginning on the 29th-30th of July for testing, and racing beginning on Friday the 31st, and Aug.1st and 2nd.
We look forward to seeing one and all at some great upcoming events with lots of sweet corn lurking out there as well.
