That Merc V-6 is one fo the first motors that Freddy Hauenstein had his hands on when he joined Mercury Racing 1978-79....I raced one like it at Parker 1979.......It was Fred's answer to EFI.....Later, everyone had EFI!!!
Great pictures!
Dan,
Thanks, you sure brought a flood of memories.
We had some real good times racing in the south with y'all. I think we need to get together you and Dale, me and Dad for a duck hunting trip this year.

Danny, did Pop really have a cigarete in his mouth in the picture of him driving? He was the only person I ever saw that could carry a Dixie cup in his back pocket all day without breaking it. Didn't know he could smoke and drive a race boat at the time!!
Lyle Mason, one tough customer
