My dad took me to the Miami marine stadium back in the early mid 60's for the boat / hydroplane races. I took my kid, same place late 80's early 90's. And at that time at 13 he was the youngest racer in the club, a very old 20 mono he had to figure out how to keep running Ha,Ha, family tradition we love all things motor sports racing, specially boats.PROBOAT BlackJack 24", ShockWave 26"

My son has been racing since he was 9. That was 10 years ago. He's a pretty solid racer now. How could he not have been sucked in though. He's seen every kind of boat built at the house at one stage or another. He's not much a of a builder but at least he will wrench on them. He's always got an idea whether I want it or not. haha Those early years were brutal trying to keep everything running.Last edited by T.S.Davis; 04-03-2019, 02:07 PM.Noisy personComment
