Actually the only checkered flag shot I got was Nichols because they came in towards the beach at an angle to the sun. Everyone else was right in the sun so no photo's.

They said the OL was running 110 down the straight, that's hauling the azz for some 525 on #6's!
Not for nothing but that boat looked like the most stable, smooth running boat in it's class. While eveyone walking chine to chine and flying the boat, he was motoring along smoothly. It looked like a Cat!

Re: OSS Race Pics Today
Panther, yes Brian Hollis (Joker) and I were watching that race together and we both commented on how stable and fast the OL looked in the water. The lines/looks of that boat are awesome! On the start though it looked like from our vantage point that the OL tried to change lanes from behind the Muscel boat and ran over the Muscle boat at the transom. To me it is just like driving a car if you hit the back of someone no matter what it's your fault for not allowing enough distance. That's racin' though and I've not read anything about what the Muscle guys had to say about this accident. I did hear that Joe Scro said the Muscle boat spun out in front of him and he got a little short with some fans in the dry pits when they asked about this. That's too bad for the fans. The Muslce boat did not spin out!
