    Congrats Sean

    Sunday ran nine hours after the ten hours of fun yesterday. No accidents, just more speed. And, yes the Aaron Peterson AXSR was wrong, as that was an ASR run that got thrown out. Wartinger was running 175 this weekend, not 125. Anyway...

    These are OFFICIAL results:

    National records:

    JR - Carter Olson 40.015
    JH - Colin Smith 43.702
    AXSR - Aaron "Fish" Salmon 51.798
    175cc Hydro - Bob Wartinger 74.354
    700cc Hydro - Sean McKean 130.563
    1100cc Hydro - Sean McKean 126.382
    Comp Jet - Mark Moyle 94.971
    Super Stock - Dave Villwock 129.110

    Note the bold - top record of the weekend to Sean McKean in 700cc; that run included a pass at 132.9. Sean blasted the existing record by nine mph. The 1100cc record was upped - that's no 95% mark, that run broke the open cockpit mark.

    All day battle between the two Aarons in AXSR. Smith and Olson kept pushing at the Saturday speeds in J, while Jared Martin was a third boat that ran over the previous JR record. In the oh-so-close category, Chas Dodge missed the 1 Litre Mod mark by .4 mph.

    We also do region records. It can be a fun thing, or a testing thing. Tom Smith joined CORA and was adopted by Region 10 for the weekend. It's been 10 years or more since we saw a DSH at kilos - looks like the local boys need to show up and get the record back

    Region Records:

    AXSR - Sheri Hathaway 49.269
    KPRO - Ashley Rucker 53.519
    20ss - Anne Thurman 61.427
    OSY - John Peeters 70.439
    DSH - Tom Smith 79.384
    45ss - John Peeters 80.475

    Scanner 2 - out.
    Congrats Sean

          Yeah, but it will be a few days. 1,200 to go through. We keep them all because the boat crews use them for data in boat setup. We have a few CDs to burn in addition to the webshots album.

              Marc,

              Tried to many "new" things on your boat and had no testing. All record runs were with 2006 Pugh. It was a time issue, each run was a test, each run was faster.

                  None the less, awesome job Sean. Congrats to you, your family, and crew (Billy). 130 mph average in a capsuled 700/1100 outboard hydro was quite the site to watch, especially considering the broken gearcase Saturday and returning with no prop nut on Sundays record run. Glad I was there.

                  Well deserved

                    Congrats anyway, glad you reached the 130 mph mark.

                      Great job Sean and Billy. The speed you posted in 700 CCH put the pro catagory in a new league. I am shure the 140 MPH speed is in the near furure with the boat designs and very high HP engines. I know you guys worked so hard and traveled a great distance for this record. Proud, you, Billy, Jim and Lorraine should be...Bob N-96

                        Almost everyone in Capsules have been in competition seeing speeds over 115 for several years. I predicted Jim and Sean would hit 130 as Sean is always one of the fastest on the course if not the fastest. Jim also told me that water conditions for Kilo runs were not perfect and I think there are very few people who would argue this with him. Look for the Mckeans to push this speed over 140 in the not to distant future.

                          PRO Boats Rock at the Kilos!

                          Wow! It was really great to watch Cory and Sean run those high speeds at the Kilos. Mike Pavlick and racing friends/family were there after racing with us at Lawrence Lake. Cory's 700cc Karelsen hydro prep team included both J Michael Kelly and JW Meyers of unlimited driving and outboard racing fame. Jones (JR) watched as they prepared the PRO hydro setups on Sunday. I thought the same thing as I watched these PRO drivers and hydro teams set major new speed records on the kilo course -- These speed record achievements give the PRO Class a definite place in history with a lot of limited inboard speed records! It is too bad we can't get more interest in PRO classes and USTS races on the West Coast. Congratulations to all of the new record holders. I will share a picture or two here after I download them from my camera (and revise their pixel size so I can post them.)

                                Hi Wendy,

                                I should have my D-Lake stuff up some time next week. I'll post the link as soon as it's available.
