    Ron,

    No kidding those Hedlund's were fast, they passed me like I was running an ASH in BSH.

    I remember Jimbo barrel rolling in BU. The lake was pretty rough.

    I don't know how the one that David's dad had was set up but mine had a tray mounted to both pipes that slid on a pair of rods that were bolted to the engine. I don't know if this was the factory set...

    Thanks David, that is the exact motor that I ran. I couldn't remember for sure if it was 1969 or 1970 that I got it. Did you and your dad run yours with the sliding throttle or a seperate lever for...

    Wayne,

    I think I got the A motor from Marcell in the fall of 1970, it was the one that he had run at the nats in 1970. I picked up a 12' 6" Bellcraft that had blown off of the Hauenstein's...

    Wayne,

    Thank you for posting the pictures of the Konig plant. They sure bring back some memories of when I was a whole bunch younger and was able to race my AOH and BOH. I wish I could remember...

    Looking at it from that angle it is not a BellCraft, the Bellcraft's deck had more arch IIRC.

    It might be a BellCraft, it does look a lot like my 12'6" Bellcraft that I ran in AOH back in 70-71.

    Alan was always good at nailing the start! If I had been smarter I would have always made my run for the start beside Alan. I miss the fun that we had back in the late 60's early 70's.

    That sure looks like an Anzani or Harrison-Anzani hybred to me. There is what looks like a mag hanging off of the front of the engine and the carb is in the normal position for an Anzani, it looks...

    Don,

    I thought the ship canal races were held in Tacoma but that was a long time ago and I could be mistaken. I do know that we raced on lake Sammamish fairly often.

    John,

    I don't know where you could do it online as that has to be one huge file. I know that I would never be able to download it, I am on a 20K dialup connection. I don't know about anyone else...

    Smitty,

    I looked at the pictures in photoshop blown up and it looks to me as if Gerry was running a Lucas mag. I think that he was still running the mags with the bounce pipes at the Divisionals...

    Carl,

    I think you might be right on the year being 1971. That was the last year that I raced and Gerry may have been using more than one setup at that time, I remember his trailer sure had a lot...

    Carl,

    I think those pictures are a bit older than you think, when I raced in the Western Divisionals at Moses Lake in 1970 or 1971 Gerry was running bounce pipes on his Anzani, I was running a...

    At that time I was only 21 and trust me dad did not like any "helpful" information from someone who he felt was wet behind the ears. <grin> I don't know if Tenny had told my dad what...

    John,

    That porting looks like what was done to my dad's A in 1968 or 1969. We were only running 10% nitro and never did get it to run as fast as it had before the port work. Wish I knew where...
