Race of Biblical Proportions
From Blake:
I would like to thank everyone who helped last night at the races. Between myself, Buz and John Autore we were able to get the course in pretty decent shape. At that point in the day, it was so hot, manual labor was not an easy task. Of course during the race we had help from The Kristiansen’s, Eric Stacer, Buz Tomasino, Dan Mitchell and Gary Worth. A special thanks goes to all those who helped score/pack up the course during the “storm of Augusta”, (if I leave anyone out, I apologize) in addition to the fore mentioned, Gene Victori (He picks up the primes every week for the racers)Kevin Kielty, John Autore, Erik Kristiansen, Barry Nazarian were all very helpful.
Thanks also goes out to the Mancuso Family for helping one of our own be able to race last night.
And last but not least – The feeder was John Autore so if you were able to get some of the water as you were flying by, he is why. Not to mention without Bruce there would not have been any water to get. Thanks!!
There are only a few more races left, and they are going to be good. We are down to the wire in the points series!!

From Kevin:
“I am not afraid of storms, for I am learning how to sail my ship.”
Louisa May Alcott (1832 - 1888)

Last night was the night of sports legends. It was an epic battle of two teams struggling to top one another. There were a variety of characters playing out intricate tactics leading to one of the more spectacular sports endings I have ever seen (I am still not sure what happened on the last lap – and don’t really care!) Thank you all to a spectacular night that I will remember for many years to come.

From Bruce:
Glen and Milo half a wheel difference. Nice!
