BE A PART OF HISTORY AND SEE ONE OF THE GREATEST SPECTACLES IN BOAT RACING!

The Bluewater Resort & Casino will play host to one of the greatest spectacles in boat racing- the ‘300’ Enduro. For the seventh year since it’s revival, this historic event will take place on October 22, 2011, where the normally calm waters of Colorado River will test the mettle and will power of the racers and their equipment. Look to see some familiar faces and some brand new ones that are up to the challenge. The race will be 50 laps on an approximately 6 mile course, from the Bluewater Resort & Casino up 3 miles (Cienega Springs) and back. Who will end up claiming the title of “King of the River”! The overall Winner of the race will receive the “Marrion Beaver Cup” dedicated to the memory of the founding father of the event who passed in 2007.

The Race is modeled after the original 1963 “Parker Enduro” with all boats entering the contest to be a minimum length of 16 feet up to a maximum of 25 feet with any motor configuration (inboard, outboard, IO, Jet). Based on the boat and motor configuration the team will designate a racing division (1 thru 7) per the official rules that govern the race http://site.enduro300.com/Official_Rules.html . Absolutely NO capsule boats (true tunnels or otherwise) will be allowed. The start will be staggered Le Mans with the slowest class of the racing divisions taking off Le Mans style first and then each division starting at their prescribed time thereafter. Safety is of the utmost priority and there are strict rules regarding passing and overtaking boats. Fuel stops consist of a minimum of two (2) – ten (10) minute stops on the trailer in the teams pit designation so, like in NASCAR, fuel stops will play an important role.

Come and join in or watch this prestigious event and see with the many other racers, boat manufacturers and aftermarket manufacturers that have already signed up to race for bragging rights and their share of the prize money.

Gluck & Noble Crowned King's of the River 2011!!!

The 2011 Blue Water Resort & Casino 300 Enduro once again didn't disappoint with the grueling 300 mile test of endurance on the 6 mile course on the Colorado River. Almost perfect weather conditions helped make this years “Enduro” one of the best that have been run in the past 6 years.

Congratulations to GN-113 "The Nightmare" team of Greg Gluck and Mike Noble, Sebring, FL, on wining the 300 Enduro. By winning the Enduro, Gluck clinched the APBA Grand National APBA High Point Championship which gives Gluck his 1st induction into the prestigous APBA Hall of Champions.

Team 113 had an incredible, near perfect day of racing. 2nd Place overall went to Team Nordic #192 Randy Davis, Gordon Jennings & Billy Dunsmore, Lake Havasu City, AZ who shared the driving duties for the 300 mile race.

Any update on Joe's injuries?

[Ron Hill]

He said Joe 's surgery went well. They took some bone splinters out of his back, that were in his spinal chord. But, everything went well, they will have Joe on his feet in 48 hours. He still has broken ribs on his right side, and from what I know of broken ribs, they will always hurt...but he will be walking fine!!!

This is good news for JOE!!!!

[rossdbos]

Joe had surgery on his vertebrae yesterday (2 fractured in the wreck) and a piece of bone actually punctured the spinal chord lining but miraculously didn't damage the spinal chord itself. The doctors removed the bone fragment and put all the rods, screws/bolts in him to stabilize his back. He is off the ventilator, which is great news, and he is doing remarkably well, according to his Doctors but he has a long road ahead but I am happy with his prognosis and we wish him a speedy recovery.
