        We had great conditions for a change!

        National Nitro Director Mike Betke upped his own 17 year old SP40 oval record to 20.988 sec using the same boat!

        MMU Commodore Terry Davis set the Q Mono Oval at 24.995 sec, impressive!

        Kevin Kosciolek broke Mike Ball's P Sport Hydro Oval at 22.951 sec. but Mike took it back in the end at 22.670. Several others were gunning for Mike's time and came close.

        And Keith Kirchen ran his big S Cat to a couple of the prettiest passes we've seen in years, both within one thousandth of a sec. of each other to net a new S Catamaran record of 1.754 sec. or 128.278 mph. Those were also the fastest passes ever made at Thread Lake, Congrats Keith!

        All the above are still "unofficial" of course pending approval by our IMPBA Records Director Doug Smock.

        Gotta clean up the boat, do a little maintenance and get back to T.O. but I'll put up some pix and vid later tonight or tomorrow.

            Thanks again to FAST members Mike Nowicki, Mark Stein and Mikey Ross, there is a ton of work that goes on both race weekend and behind the scenes. Without these guys our events just would not happen.
