Don't know about "The Italian Job" Jackie. Don't watch many movies.

I emailed you, but couldn't come up with the good pic I wanted so I cancelled the email. Found the contact sheet that was so...

You're thinking of the President BEFORE George Bush II Jackie. I think that president would have switched to the Republican party if he thought Sara Palin would have been his vice president.
...

You're right Jackie, we have a leader now, and not someone who says he is "leading from behind" whatever the he11 that means.

I didn't buy an Apple Jackie because I heard it's the best for security, but hard to learn to use. How was it you figured it out?:D Anyway, We're done I think with the wind part. But it's been...

Gotta get through this hurricane first Jackie. My computer's been acting up again, and it was in Corpus Christi for a week or so.

Hey Jackie...You been jacking up a bunch of old timers lately as to where they've been. You were gone for two years. Glad you're back. Glad you are pushing. It's been a good run to hear from...

That's exactly right Jackie. One of my best friends and partner who helped guide me in my early racing is Clayton Elmer. He has millions of tales, but has never posted anything. Some years back...

Ron, when Joe Rome first saw Boatracingfacts, he call me up and said "Wayne...I just found this new website that Ron Hill started. You got to take a look at it." So I did and called him back. Joe...

This must be the time that Ken Warby showed up at the P&W offices that you mentioned earlier Jackie.

Here is at least one time you won it. It appears to be for a fine job of chasing Billy Seebold around.

I remember the story about Koo Stark and think I still have an issue of Time Magazine with her picture and some controversy.

So Jackie and Steve, if I can get this to upload, here is my favorite...

That's the kind of stories I'm talking about Jackie. You've already told many that keeps people coming back to this thread.

I actually met Ken Warby myself, but I already knew who he was. Worked...

When Joe Cocker went by Vance Arnold, did he also move with that same unique style? He is probably the best ever at covering a song and adapting it and making it his own.

Hey guys, How about...

That's what makes this thread on of the most interesting Jackie.

Amen Jackie.

I don't like to get off target in a thread, particularly on a hot subject such as this. But this is one of the most interesting threads of all, and has wandered far and wide from its...

In our own schools over here, they are sympathetic to the muslim community and their religion , while at the same time attacking Christianity. Donald Trump won the Presidency because he spoke...

Okay, let's do it the easy way. I will send you a couple of photos from Valleyfield so you will have one for your collection. You sign one I sent, and if you happen to have a copy of a mug shot or...

I don't know if you ever looked at my Autograph Collection thread Jackie, but I think there is a lot of people you know, or know of. I would very much like to have you autograph the photo from...

I met Pip Wiley and number of times, and also knew Chris Applebee who broke my old OD Kilo World Record. And am a friend of Mike Ward who is doing a good job of historical info on ALL CLASSES of...

It's hard to tell who's who Jackie.....especially the frames are so small and you have to cock your head around. I was using this contact sheet merely as a test to see if I could post pictures...

Well, maybe that can be my inspiration to figure out how to post pictures again on this website Jackie. I'm not going the cloud route though. I don't understand where the stuff hides out, so I...

Quite all right John, and you are correct mostly. I was born in Alice, Texas Jackie, and we first raced under Alice Specialty, then CB Racing Team, and later and mostly under Master Oil Racing team....

I was there in 76 also Jackie. I had half a lap lead in my qualifying heat and coming out of the final turn on the way to the finish the electric fuel pump shut off. Fred Hauenstein, Tim Butts,...

I got the same problem. I can get through everything, but downloading the picture and it tells me it can't. This is the third format change I believe and I have figured all of them but this one...

Glad to see your post's again Jackie. Like very much your English wit style of posts. Reminds me much of talking to my old friend Douglas "Pip" Willey. I have had though the same problem you have...

That is some very interesting information Steve. Wow... I grew up listening to Gerry and the Pacemakers the year I started racing. Now I will think about boat racing whenever I hear their songs. ...

I bet there was a lot of old boat racing stories passed around at that lunch Lars. Thanks for posting. That would have been a fun time just to listen in and hear the stories.

I like pit shots the best. Thanks Mike.

Ray Bulman also had a column in Powerboat for a number of years. Always enjoyed his stuff.

Those are some good inside stories Lee and Jackie. It makes it much more interesting to read about racing exploits when someone who was there can add more than what was reported. I will see if I...

Sorry, but I don't. My only trip to Valleyfield was for the John Ward race in 1976.

Well...I found my loupe and was able to see the films with clarity and found one of the No. 4 tunnel of yours Jackie. I also included a few shots from the drivers's meeting. Unfortunately, I shot...

Jackie, I've looked through most of my pictures, and I haven't found a tunnel mixing it up with the inboards yet, but I can't find my good loupe and so I have a hard time seeing details. I'll find...

Very interesting pieces of history Jackie. Unfortunately, I never got a program from Valleyfield in 1976, but I got a bunch of photos. We you driving an inboard hydro? If so...what number. I'm...

That sounds exactly like the British Ron. Pip Willy had a table he would set up, place a tea pitcher on it with a saucer, tea cup and then place a vase with a single rose on the table before he sat...

Hope you have better luck than I have Ron. The only thing I found of the 79 Parker was Ann Strang's region 7 column. She listed the first 6 places. The way I understood it was Jackie finished...

I didn't take it the wrong way John and I'm sure others didn't also. Tim brought up the point point of offending someone and I couldn't figure it out. So I posted my two cents worth. I think Tim...

I've never met nor talked to Jackie Wilson, but from what I've read he's a class act and you also have to factor in the media. I think there are quite a number of racers out there that have said...

I was surprised too upon reading that John. I had always thought Parker was pretty open. It was kind of hard to read the small print so here is the enlarged section to throw out there for comment.

John, according to the accompanying article in January 1980 of Powerboat & Waterskiing, Jackie won but was disqualified because the Cosworth was not an American engine. Would this have happened to...

A couple more from Powerboat & Waterskiing.

I'm with Jeff on this. I'll find a mug shot later.

Kudos to you Tim for getting him here on BRF.
