The Algonac Pictorial
 

The Dogpound, somewhere East of Algonac, MI

Algonac is a great racesite. This Sunday was the season's opener for the Silver Cup Series. And it was a weekend outing for some of the OSS guys who decided to drop in on Tom Abrams's summer cottage.

The OSS contingent was strong. And the OSS board members present seized the opportunity to have one of their famous telephone conferences with Billy Mauff, who celebrated his birthday back on Long Island

All three Nutz teams were present. Orange Nutz was the trailer queen of the weekend due to a blown water pump. Blue Nutz of Wild Card found their boat adorned with stickers intended to question their manhood.

The Nutz raced in P3, but the real race was between the Nutz. Blue Nutz took the early lead, with Black Nutz right behind them. Then Randy & BJ passed Willie & Larry.

In the last lap, Blue caught Black in the turn and finished ahead by two boatlengths.

In a controversial decision, the judges saw Black ahead of Blue, and the trophy was awarded to Team Typhoon. By that time, the Black Nutz were already somewhere in Ohio. In a quick telephone conference, it was decided that the Girls from Kuba had won fair and square, and that they will get their Kuban asses kicked in St. Pete.

Both boats are evenly matched, and it should be an exciting race for the Nutz, and likewise for any challengers with balls.

In the "1 Motor v.v. 1 Motor" grudge match, KLaatu teamed up with Jerry Gilbreath in the Reliable Cat against Tom Abrams and Peconic in Black Nutz. Klaatu saw speeds up to 120 mph.
