I remember him.
Great shot too.
Think you can drive an O/B race boat?
Look how low the boat is in the water and imagine the G loading on the driver.
Oh yeah, one turn of four, per lap.
Way cool.

nice show, right in front of the crowd
Randy Scism blow an engine and slowed down to enter the pit and got run over..
The white boat #18 had no place to go..
This is what I was told by people watching
#17 Luigi Valdano was an Italian gentleman and a close racing friend. Always a smile on his face. We raced together many years.
Sadly we lost Luigi in a F1-V8 race in Holland 1984. A safety cell could probably have saved his life but they where not available 1984. This sad accident was the start of thinking safety in tunnel boat racing.
1985 F1-V8 boats was available with safety cells from Chris Hodges and Cees Van Der Velden.

I came to the USA in the late seventies (first time) but did the basic military training in Sweden before I left. Back then it was mandatory for young Swedish men to do basic military training for a minimum of 6 month.

Roger Jenkins new F1-V8 Burgess 1984.
The Evinrude V8 3.5 liter 2 stroke, looper, carb model with 12 inch mid section was also updated with a new better exhaust manifold, new stronger connecting rod screws and a more aerodynamic engine cowling.
