    For those that haven't traveled to a race before, it's mind-blowing to know that Howard just shipped 111 lbs of gear to come race with us. It's his 7th (?) straight year. This will be Proulx's 10th, and we're only at our 9th annual event.

      Great stuff guys, wish I was joining you but will be rockin out w/ Kid Rock in Nawlins!!!! I will try my best to go to Cali for the Nats but to ship all my stuff for 1 day of racing (I would only come for the offshore day) then pack it all up andf ship it back is seems a little crazy to my wife!!!! I will definitely be at the Mi Cup and the Northern lights Open though.

          You are going to have to show this pic at each WW event so that we can build Chase's "appearance" count.

            And who could forget Doozie James driving his Taifun with the motor Ca'd to the bottom of his hull and completing an entire heat with his steering reversed (or that racer in the upper left calling in his bets to his bookie)

                Easy to identify by the patented KW precision grip on the handle......

                  Is he hammer-heading round cells, or cutting a steak? I think of KW every time I solder, because I'm still using some type of liquid super-duper flux he gave me back in '09.

                    It takes a big man to admit that he received a super-duper flux from another man.......................

                      After 4 years, I would seriously consider a medical consultation.....

                        You're right. It's not even liquid anymore!

                        I texted KW. He's doing good and strongly considering coming to the '13 FE Nats.

                            Been a few years since I've been down there, but I finally convinced the wife she needs me to go away for a long weekend.

                              Dang, Lee. You've been really quiet lately. Glad to see you're back in the game! Did you get my new office address from Proulx?
