Lane Curry: 36 Racer, "Chickenship" Racing
Lane and Steven Curry have been working with us at every race since we got back into 45 SS. Lane is having knee surgery on August 23, 2007 and will miss the San Diego race.
Lane tells me Steven has all of Lane's racing pictures...and I hope he'll post them...
I "FOUND" a 36 Wheel at Mickey Schwarzenbach's Apple Valley Marine a few weeks ago....On the propeller it said, "LANE". I polished the wheel and we had planned to present it to Lane at Long Beach, but Steven was in Hawaii and then we thought San Diego....
So, today, Tinker Collinge and I took the prop to Lane...We wanted to cheer him up about his coming knee surgery.....
Enjoy the prop, Lane...Heal fast, we need you at Bakersfield....
My new camera is in the shop at BEST BUY since August 4th...Hope these pictures are good!

Check the Picture of Jimbo's Sid Craft
Bill, your own pictures of Jimbo's Sid Craft..... What number is on that boat.... Seem I remember your DU as 11-C....Is this not BILLY BOYES at Hansen Dam, with a first place DU trophy????
Oh hell, just re-read your post...The Mother Please Boat, was yours at the 1963 Boston Nationals....Jimbo's Sid-Craft was a 1963...
Did there used to be the same numbers for hydros and runabouts??? My memory is going bad though! (Too much pomegranate jelly on my bagels)...(Did you and Kay can that jelly???)...

Lane Curry Driving "The Bandit V"
Danny Schwarzenbach owned this boat, not sure WHY Lane was driving it... Tito Smith bought this boat and turned it over just about everytime he raced it....Should have been called "FLIPPER", except one of my boats already had the name!
Mickey Schwarzenbach is supposed to show up at this weekend's Blue Water Resort and Casino 300 Enduro, on October 20, 2007....
