Congrats Dee!!!!
But what most dont know is the fact that she raced a 29' Fountain with a single 500 EFI. Ok so those boats are on the course all the time, heres the kicker, against a 382 Formula with twin 525's, 34 Phantom w/ twin 500's, 33 Scarab w/ twin 650's(at least) and a Super Vee Lite.... Then you add to the whole thing that the boat wasnt even ready until 10 am race morning..
She held her own got up there in the start with us and then paced herself throughout the race and raced smart. I must say she was as cool as the flip side of a cucumber. All of us on the team are so proud of her and yes, I am looking over my shoulder as I firmly believe that you have to have the best people in the boats, my job might be in jeopardy pretty quick
Thank you Dee for everything you do for our team and I hope you know, TnT would not be where we are today without you!!

Thank you all! It was a great experience. Now not to say this is gonna make me a full time racer but I most definitely want to be out there and do it again. I think I got 2-3 races in me per season.
Thank you so much Trent for giving me the oportunity in Port Huron and Thank you to Tyler for a little seat time in St Clair and the helmet on race day. I also need to Thank Roxy for donning my camera and getting. And a big thanks too to Rob, from the Whoz Your Daddy team for throttling for me
I placed fifth Class 400. Here's a pic Roxy took, look for the little person with the green mohawk, that's me.
I think I did damn good running with not having power steering
