Albert Enzweiler actually cut down a Mitchell and put a Merc 1000 on it. Didn't work out very well. The story was he was trying a propeller out and it hit a dock. Albert took a saw to just about every fiberglass boat he ever ran. Also I had linguini with white clam sauce Sunday night.

My paltry collection of pictures an clippings is not much to show for 13 years of racing. I regret not having been more diligent about pictures and I envy you all the photo memories. I sure thank you and of course Greg for sharing.Quote:
