    Default more region 2 stuff

    Here are a few pictures from region 2.
    #1)Dave Harkness came out of retirement in the mid 90's to give my racecraft a ride in "Classic" BSR. Mike Mosier and Scott Reed are in the background.
    #2)Me and Mike Noonan at Carelton Place Ont., with our ASH stuff. Jim Noonan is holding Mike's boat, and Dale Elliott is between us.
    #3)Scott Reed is the young feller in the blue shirt and black hair. In the background is Pete Mellon's 98-N "Smoke on Water" and Dave Jacox's 97-N "Darlin' Deed". Dad is putting a throttle in my JSH.
    #4)This is a boat Ron either built or rebuilt in high school. I used it as an ASR with the number #45. This picture is of Ron using a 25SS on it at a "Harkness Fest" in the early 80's. There is a funny history behind this boat but Ron would have to tell it.

    Sorry for the picture quality.

    Russ how many Yomatos did your Dad sell as a dealer? By chance did you guys put any of them on storage during the lack of racing in the Northeast in the late 80s?

    Brent,

    How old were you there? You were racing ASR then. Wow, you must have just made the minimum age. Very cool.

    The old pics of the 60J sure brings back memories. Just recently, at our TRORA fall Banquet, I saw myself racing JSR, that was pretty cool as I'd never seen myself racing J on video.

    20ssR, I'd love for that class to come back, I'd race it in a heartbeat.

    Keep posting the old pics, I love them.

    Default Joe...

    I was 12, I got too heavy to race J any longer. I have to locate some more pics. I think Dad has more somewhere.

    I to would get into 20SSR in a heartbeat....No sidefins! I would love to find my Dad's old rig. It went to Michigan I believe back in 1986 or so.
