Congratulations.

Tough weekend for compjet racers.  I saw 3 wreck/sunk Saturday and 1 Sunday morning (I didn't get to see any racing after the sunday morning wreck).

Hope everyone is feeling good and racing again soon.

Saturday Heat one :Tom Bandy went over - sunk
Restart of Saturday Heat one: Shril Dicky went over - sunk
3rd restart of Saturday Heat one: Toby Clark flipped pretty bad - lots of damage (missing steering wheel, bent headers, broken/missing injection velocity stacks

Tom Bandy and Jack of MPD were able to get the cj123 back running for sunday.

1st heat of Sunday - Mark Yunker flipped - destroyed the hull - boat went to the bottom
2nd heat of Sunday - Harold Bruce spun out and got pitched, but boat stayed afloat.

Amazingly no one got hurt in any of these accidents.

I was quite surprised to walk out on to my balcony at the blue water with a raging hangover and 15 seconds later see the first flare shot.  Glad to hear everyone is ok.

Yea Jack's boat is his Liberty from back in the late 70's Still a beautiful boat.  Someone tell me what was the water like Northern Atlantic on a nasty winter day?  It sounds more like the NJBA 1875.

It is Jack's Liberty back from his racing days.  Tom Bandy and Jack are close, Tom has been running a modified CP in the drags for years with Jacks help on the pump.  I guess all the old stories about his circle racing days finally made Tom want to get in the seat and give it a try.

Everyone please send Mark a roll of duct tape I think that will do it.

Trying to be more serious, Mark are you going to try to fix it or are you going to look for a new hull?
Title: Re: Comp jet winner
Post by: papaletch on April 24, 2012, 12:28:46 AM
I think it is safe to say he is in the market for a new hull.

Mark should be ready for next race. HB and crew are getting motor all fresh and a replacement hull should be a shop soon.  :thumbup:
