ANyone have any info on old race boats, mid 80's-90's...looking for some web pages that speak about old races, specifically a boat named Miss Maxon (sutphen).

thanks...

Miss Maxon was a 33' Sutphan raced by Tim Ciasulli in Modified class. He raced it in the early 1980's.
The boat originally had staggered de-stroked big blocks (modified were allowed a maximum of 734 cubic inches) I've got pictures of it but can't post them due to computer illiteracy.

Dtile,

Use this link: www.SharkeyMarine.com and scroll down to Ray Patnuade's Offshore Racing Library

Rob, im thinking about buying it for pleasure, its sitting in lbi..
jsut thought reading about its history and seeing old pics would be [email protected] if ya can email them...
this is what it looks like now....
needs power....

That's the boat that lead the fleet to the Verrazzano bridge and then ran out of gas on the way back.

I worked for Timmy at Maxon Pontiac back then. We used to drool over it sitting in the back warehouse.

This is the only shot I have of it back in the day.

Thanks guys...and ron for the pic...looks like a classic. I keep searching the net, not much on the sport these days like nascar picked up over the years. shame...I love the sport..
