I can't believe it's been over twelve years......seems like only yesterday we were designing, building and running cats at his home.

I would have loved to have met him. I have a feeling he'd have really dug what I've been trying to do with tiny, low-V power systems.
I've always thought we should have a "Micro Boat" "Winter League", where we race in pools, storm ponds, Golf Course ponds, etc. Would be a BLAST! And VERY easy to transport.Darin E. Jordan - Renton, WA

I got to meet him and Dan C. at BattleBots in 2001 with Jeff V. All fine people as you know. Trent always had the idea of an RC boat package in a suitcase, easy now day's. Of course we talked many times on phone. Trent was a good friend of Ed Hughey as well, they often discussed ideas on motors and gearboxes before BL arrived.Comment

I hadn't met Trent, but Dan and Randy kept the Trent Haire Classic going for a while. I drove up to SF in (IIRC) 2008, hooked up with Randy at his shop & stayed with Dan. We went to the pond for the Classic but it was only myself, Dan, Randy, Wilmer & one other Ca guy. Not enough to make a class so we did a 2-Lap with me & Dan holding stopwatches.
