Round three for us and we were back in to our favorite race town, STORM LAKE, IA. We like racing in this town because we have local sponsors in this town. The biggest one Puffs Bar, this is one of the coolest hangouts we have found out of all the race sites we have visited. The first time we visited Puffs we hit it off well with the locals. Puff (the owner) didn't beleve that we really were racers and that all we wanted was free beer for a sponsorship. After some smooth persuasion we got puff to sponsor us. Every time we have gone back he has held up his part of the deal.
Well about the race Chuck got 1st again in Expert Sport 785 limited, as for Brian his boat blew up again while we were up there.
Brian got a crazy idea to race standups so Chuck and Brian raced standups. They thought they were better standup riders than they were, because they entered into Expert
ski 785 superstock. They used some of our friends skiis that we race with. Boy did they get a wake up call.
They thought it wouldn't be as tuff as riding a sport jetski(HA HA HA). They needed to be in the beginner ski class. I have to admit, it was a good laugh.
We finally got Fred out of bed for this race. This was a suprise to us, Fred up in time to race! We
knew something was up. He made it all the way to the entry gate but didn't pass tech inspection. His scoop grate was about 4 inches too deep, what was this kid thinking. He told us that
he was too cheep to buy a new one. So once again Fred didn't get to race.
Tony finished 1st in novice runabout 785 limited. He says he finally got his boat running well enough to call
it a limited boat. He should really thank his holders because they gave him one hell of a hole shot. Tony's words after winning the most competitive class was "The water wasn't much smoother in the front." As you can
see it turned out to be a shitty day and the water was kind of rough. This turned some of the racers away from even showing up.
Pickle got 4th again in amateure runabout 785 stock . Do you think Pickle needs to do something different next time?
Not too many people made it to the riders meeting. We all had fun even though we had some minor altercations.
Fred and Ersh felt it necessary to show off their asses
