We spoke about Ron France in the "Prop Man" thread but thought I would add this bit on Ron here. It was Sept. 8th and 9th 2007 at the Michigan Hydroplane Racing Associations (http://www.michiganhydroplane.com/) "Wild Ones Regatta" at Grass Lake, Mi. that Ron flexed his might once again. Ron came down from his home located in Canada and showed everyone in the "A" stock hydroplane class how it's still done. He Started every heat both days on the outside lane and to the best of my knowledge won every heat he raced. He was in the company of some fast people also. At an age that most older men are content to walk to their mailbox everyday and call it exercise, Ron goes toe to toe with racers a quarter his age and shows them that age is not a factor in the sport he likes so much. Hats off to you Ron.
