He has some great stories about racing against some of the old legends like Fever. Love our old Mirage WHOZ YOUR DADDY 5-31 check out the web site www.WHOZYOURDADDYRACING.com

After Rob and Pat, I recall the boat being campaigned as ‘Hauling Glass’, in the mid 90s. I also remember it being a twin engine “A” boat, when it was called “Kamakizi”, and then a “A” and the “B” boat as ‘Hauling Glass’ due to the rules changing to toss twin engine boats out of “A” class. I do remember it being a completive “A” boat.

Ran as A-33 “Kamakizi” 90,91 & 92
I think it was A-32 Hauling Glass by 93

I do not recall them running against Fever, who was in “B” class. But the time we all got moved to “B” class (1995 season), Joe S. was driving for Peter Meyer in Instigator (the activator, then the fountain).

"Lil Rhino" was bought by Gilly and I ran it for him under the name "Holiday Isle's Rum Runner" until "Footy" from Y-100 took the boat for a season or two.,

Hulls #1 & 2 were the S-254 Rhino and the M-793 Wolverine, hull number 3 was the P-111 LaSalle. All 3 boats were to race in each APBA prodution class back in 1976. The LaSalle pictured here, is as it raced, and today. It is still here on Lake St Clair. Ironhead when can I shot some pictures of your restoration of the P-14 Anaconda Magnum that raced the LaSalle ??? I need pic's, my attic is still to cold .
