Hey Scott,
You thinking of making the trip? Put a big tank in there and go play with the boys. It wouldn't be the first time for that 380 of yours.
The first "J" engine was the Merc 1100. It was introduce in either '66 or '67??? It was legal in SJ and JP. I ran JP in '67. S Class was Unlimited Single Engine.
Great stuff Joe. Keep it coming.
I first met Paul in 1964. We had two boats in the 1964 100 mile Downtown Marathon in Knoxville. I won 70 to 80 with a 15'2" Allison and a DR 800 club foot and...

That's exactly what happened to Ernie Threlkeld in Norristown, PA when he blew his wing over on a kilo run.
There was a stirrup that the driver used to control the flap. In Ernie’s case he wore...
WE ran this with a DR 800. Handled the 80 well. Was not the fastest and it did not turn. Slid all over the place. Question a 1250??? Good Luck.
Funny thing, that happens to people all the time in the corporate world.
Reagarding the wing you're referring to that Ernie had. Was that the one he blew ober at Norristown, PA? I was there...
He seems to be sitting up pretty high in that boat. I remember when Roark asked dad to drive Chris's boat a couple times the seat was so low in the boat dad sat on a pillow to see over the dash.

It was a great place to run. We looked forward to going there every fall. Two days of kilos and a good time was had by all.
