After racing all year in my 28 Pantera and winning several races, I was planning in sitting out in the Deerfield race because of issue with my driver.
I posted this in the racers milling area and Frank aka TheDonz caught it and sent me a private message asking me if I was available to race in Deerfield, I didn't even hesitate to answer with a simple yes. I will give up my chance to win the worlds in my class to enter in another class with the TOP GUN. We will qualify for the worlds having not race one time this year because I`m in the boat with two or more races this year which qualifies us to race in the worlds in Key West. Again thank you Frank , Mike and Adrian for having me as your throttleman. Here is a picture of me racing in my 28 Pantera and a picture of Franks 38 cig with staggerd blower motors.

Thanks to you, Albert. The AFA Racing Team feels very fortunate to have Albert as its throttleman...not only did he jump right in and start putting things together, but because of his reputation and contacts, AFA Racing Team obtained instant credibility and help from many persons, such as Lobsterboy (Mark LaFleur-Love Muscle), ScottB (KEAN), Mark Mathews (Fortress), and especially Lazaro Mesa and his company MESA Balancing.......thanks again,.....we hope to do well in Key West next month.....
TSGun,
the boat now has separate throttle controls; this was done in-house by the team especially for Albert..........photos to follow later

if you look closely, you see the tabs switches and the wiring running behind the sissy bar.....this was later neatly tie wrapped to the sisisy bar away from view....this was a temporary solution until after Key West when I will run the wiring behind the bulkheads.....
