Jimbo McConnell in front of his Evinrude V8. This is from 1982. I think Pittsburgh/Three Rivers Regatta.

Jimbo McConnell in front of his Evinrude V8. This is from 1982. I think Pittsburgh/Three Rivers Regatta.
Here is Jimbo again in Drammen, Norway 1982.
You must have a good hotdog before the race..!!
It looks like a hot dog Lars, but do they have American hot dogs in Norway? I saw so many sausages and wurst products in KaDeWe in Berlin that I don't think I could pick a hot dog out of that pile.
HeeHee Master Oil/Wayne,
No they do not have American hot dogs in Norway or Sweden.. but I guarantee you the one Jimbo is eating is extremely good.;)
That's what I thought Lars. Wish I could still eat some of the original and the best wurst.:D
More pictures from Jørgen Jørgensen. This is also from Nora, Sweden 1976 and my #1 Clerici with the first Evinrude FT-19s.

More Jørgen Jørgensen pictures from 1973. This is from the Nordic Championship race in Holback, Denmark. Jorgen was the CEO for Evinrude Denmark.
It was raining all weekend in Holback but it did not stop the Swede from winning in the SE class driving the #99 Clerici/Evinrude SS boat..Yes its me in the first picture.:D
Cees Van der Velden and his Velden Racing/Johnson V6 RS 3 liter, looper fuel injection.
Pretty sure its Ziggy from OMC fueling up his OZ class boat. Maybe Mouse to the far left helping.
Yes, I was there.
Bob Spalding #11 Velden Racing/Carlsberg/Johnson RS V6 3 liter looper fuel injection.
Here you can see the air operated brake cylinders at the rear of the cat. This is from Drammen, Norway 1979, maybe 1980
In the second picture Bob is fueling up and next to the fuel tank is the air pressure bottle.
