'87

Here are some old ones. I want to figure out how to create a chronological galley.

 

[MOBILEMERCMAN]

Maybe this will work. When you select "go advanced" you get the option of adding a title.

So when everybody adds pictures if they include the year in the title section I should be able to arrange them as we go.

03

Key West 03. I went down for the usual activities and ran into Chris Reindl, he asked me if i'd jump in a throttle for a new lease-ee (hell yea!). The boat ended up with a streering issue that made it a big hand full, we dropped out running in first coming into the last lap. Had a great time though.


Jim i think we may have actually met briefly down there on the docks. The person i was throttling for was Dina Paolella(?) and if i'm not mistaken had something to do with Todd Welling. Maybe went out with him or something, dont remember that part of it. At any rate i think we were pulling the boat when you guys came in and Dina gave me a quick intro but that was about it.

This was taken as we were getting ready to pass you guys (ok so my memory may not be that good ) actually it was taken as we were both under a caution area where the Agitator cat went over. I think you guys came around us 2 or 3 times, those batboats are a great place to watch a race from.

In '03 I Ran the F2-55 Flag covered 38 Fever. Lance rode with Todd. My first ride in Spiderman was '03 in a test with Lance that week. I drove it full season in '04.

My memory is pretty good, I can't say. We will know for sure in 2 weeks if we have met.

Lance Henrichsen? He throttled my boat in my first race in 1999. Holy chit I thought about quitting right then.

Why?

Why?

Lance never lifted , it was win or die. What a dude!

He and I went to the same school then. Lilly, Sanborn, Welling, are the same way. Every time you lift you lose a boat length. Trim the boat so you can let it eat.

More like 100 yards - haha. Yep Lance was a crazed man on the sticks.

Lilly used to say " the devil's on my shoulder, he's yelling in my ear....."

 

[AugiePensa]

I'm gonna HATE not being there this year. Everyone have fun and be safe.

Gee, he still says the same thing, but the Devil is kicking him in the back too :ack2:

Actually his surgery went well, he should be up and around in no time. :26:
