I ran an elimination heat against Mike when he was about that age. 1973 Nationals in SG class. We both wound up DQd for motor shifting issues.

...its a little place called Alton, Illinois. At the Alton Midwest Nationals / F1 PowerBoat Racing. Its a newer venue they have begun there, only in the last few years. Yes, 2 AND 4 stroke Merc power both, as you would expect...
