Even More Bad Memories From that Weekend
That same weekend, Dean and I were in the 1100 runabout race. Dean and I blew that thing over backwards, and from what I was told it went pretty high. I believe to this day that this was the fastest runabout I've ever been in. I used to ride with Rex Hall and we were probably the fastest rig around so I know fast. We won the nationals in 86. (I have more then one 1100 runabout story about riding with Rex). I guess that they are always fastest before they go. I told Dean that as soon as it got quiet, I jumped. :eek: When I landed, I pulled all of the muscles in my right shoulder and my groin. I was limping for a couple of weeks and couldn't move my right arm. Dean wasn't that lucky. He fractured his back when he wit the water a$$ first.
Adding insult to injury, the boat landed right side up without a scratch.
