P.S.----Forgot to comment on Post #12----
The boat (#14) is one of the first of the second
series of pickle-forked Scotti's. The picture was
made in Bristol, England, at the Embassy Grand Prix
in 1973 near the docks in downtown Bristol. Shortly after this pic.
was taken..........there was a BIG "OOPS" and a
VERY BIG splash........it barrel-rolled in the bottom
turn. Condition of the boat wasn't too bad,
Condition of Jimbo was a cut on the foot and a
very WET ego. The lesson was learned, however,
on HOW to turn a Scotti pickle-fork and Jimbo
NEVER barrel-rolled another one. Jimbo still ended
up 5th Overall for Formula I in the race.
