Try this again - Vee Lite - Who Wins?
I know Pete usually does these online contests but since he's away,,,someone has to fill in.
With two races in the books and the new 2x2 starting grid making things tighter and more interesting, all sights are set on Sunny Isles Beach for the first Ocean Race in a long, long time.
Jenni and Mark, have the rest of the teams worried but these Missouri natives might be in for a suprize when they get into uncharted ocean swells. Typhoon is in second place and (of course) claims to be the ones to beat, especially in the ocean. Something about Typhoon Ruling the Seas, if I recall. Wild Ride is just pacing themselves, waiting for the right moment to strike, as long as they don't get run over again. Worthy Risk showed great speed on Saturday in Havasu but didn't have enough on Sunday to take down Jenni "the Hammer" Seeser. The Crazy Cubans are holding onto third place and have plenty of open water experience (just ask them how they got to the USA!). Laveycraft is looking forward to the Ocean Race with a super deep vee hull that won in Peurto Rico last time it got rough. Hard Rock is behind a hard rock as George breaks in a new driver and gets him in sync with the boat. After traveling cross country just to fix a gas tank, Adrenaline Rush primed and ready. This could be the perfect water for that narrow beam hull. And newcommer, Simply Awesome is the wildcard, does Bruce and Jay even remember how to start the motor? An unconfirmed entry is Pirates Racing (formerly Screamin Eagle) with a new team that's still getting accustomed to running the boat.
WHO'S GONNA WIN? It should be a wild one for sure.
