  • US-A Team to race in Viljandi, Estonia

    To all of our valued supporters,

    The U.S. A-Team would like to take this time to thank you all for your generous donations and for your overall continued support for our program. The goal of this team, as you know, is to place American drivers on the podium at UIM World Championship races in Europe.

    In respect for your staunch and lasting support, we wanted to keep you abreast of our most current preparations and progress as we close in on the 2011 OSY-400 World Championship on July 16 in Viljandi Estonia. This year the team plans to have two American entries in the race. Driving for the U.S. A-Team in 2011 will be UIM racing veterans Tony Lombardo from Concord, California and Team Captain Billy Allen from Quincy, Massachusetts. Accompanying them to Estonia will be Executive Administrator Rachel Warnock from Pewaukee, Wisconsin, Chief Technical Officer Bob Cronin from Candia New Hampshire, Team Leader Racer Allen from Bailey Island Maine, Photographer/Advisor Dave Recht from Los Altos, California, Journalist Unity Flagstaff from Stratton Maine, and making his debut on the European UIM racing scene will be Crew Chief Johnny Wlodarski from Newton, New Jersey.

    The team has recently taken delivery of two new boats. A composite hydro built by Dave Bennett of Bennett Boats in St. Augustine, Florida and a Kamp Kurz hull by Mark Kurz of Indian River, Michigan. Both of these boat building experts have donated countless hours preparing these hulls and we are very much indebted to them. Let me state at this time that the U.S. A-Team is committed to winning in Europe with an American built hull.

    We would also like to send a special thank you to our largest financial donors; Peters and May Racing, The APBA Historical Society, Team Tate Racing, The Trailer Place of New England, Team Keegan, Bob Harrity, and Captain Kurt of M/V Atlantic Surveyors. As you can easily see, this team is compromised of individuals and supported by companies from all corners of The United States. We truly are, and are proud to be, America’s Boat Racing Team.

    In closing let me say thank you again for all of the support that you have shown to this program. We are proud to have you behind us as we move forward to take on the world. Don’t ever forget that without people like you, the United States would not even be represented at these International Competitions.

    Respectfully,
    Billy Allen

    Captain, U.S. A-Team

                      From Canada: Go US-'Eh' Team!

                      Good luck to Billy and the Gang.
                      Was a pleasure to have met you all(Billy, Racer, Rachel, Johnny,...) in February to support the cause,....seems so long/cold ago.
                      With only days remaining, hoping personnel/equipment logistics are as expected, allowing y'all to focus on business.
                      Wish I could be there to guide you through the language and Vodka(only drink it from the freezer!...smoooooth).

                      CDN/Estonian Racing,...with a USA OC boat....that's multi-culturalism.
                      Stock Outboard Racing!....because other sports,....golf, football, baseball, etc....only require one Ball!

                            I am just loving that the team is assembling at Parke Ave and raring to go! The excitement is building, all the hard work now has momentum, to race hard and get to the podium. Woohoo!

                            As we used to say when playing boat races, "C'mon Bil-ly, C'mon Ton-ny!" US-A TEAM, baby!

                            The idea that all of the history of the Allen family is actually coming together for the shipping, the racing, and there have been so many generous donations of time, money and support of people behind the scenes, means so much. The way that the racers and fans and corporate sponsors have helped is immeasurable! Many thanks to all.

                            I just love that the new Transportation Secretary, Mr Jack Glasses Neeley, has been designated ( since he can practically drive blindfolded to the airport)....

                            Remember that old yellow van? Could have used that today when transporting all that luggage and the team.

                            So, Godspeed Billy and Tony, go fast and hard and win!
