Well if you come down to the stadiums thats where I'll be. My race is about 15-20 mins and you will only see the last 2 mins of it if that. Just to let you and anyone else who may come down. I'm going to guess that I'll be getting on the water from Heinz field around 7:45-8 because I have to row all the way to the start line which is the 31st street bridge.

Only thing that sucks is I have to do my volunteer duty from 10-12 so I can't hang out with anyone for long after race. But Jeff will in in attendance an he can pick out my boat from all the other boats passing by.

Just did my first official drag racing Sunday. Didn't do too bad. I've decided that my car needs to be either rear wheel or all wheel drive. Just spun the tires for about the first 150-200 feet down the track. Didn't get any times tho, It was the Flashlight Drags. Boosters beware. Its useless horsepower!

Rob where did you end up going?


Yeah the guy had a heart attack at the start line. I saw them towing his boat and giving him CPR. I didn't know he died until I red the news on Monday. The races were delayed for a little but because it blocked the start line.

But the race went well. Was not one of my best but it was not my worse. So the end of the season was AOK.
Now i'm debating on winter training to do dragon boats.

Not so true. You just need traction! What tires did you have on? Your streets?
