RACE BOATS
Deep regrets

Unfortunately the loss of a good friend and fellow racer happened on Friday during testing. With a great throttleman like Charlie Haynes behind the sticks it proves that offshore racing can be dangerous. The mood at the race site is somber but racing is what we do. If we could change what happend we would do it in a heartbeat. Please don't take our "the show must go on" attitude as if we don't care what happened.

Randy,

I am not taking it that way at all.
I know everyone cares. It is a sad time.
I am sure OSS will have some sort of moment of silence at the Drivers meeting or something.
It is a horrible way to start out with the organization's 1st race or any race for that matter.
I wish all of you luck and a safe race.

The Angels will handle the rest....

All racers said farewell to a friend, a husband, a son, and a brother last night at a memorial service conducted by Pastor Jim Black.
