V-DRIVE VIDEO:
boatguy222Jerry,
didn't Richard have a Hondo as a back-up to the Revenge, I believe that was the old Cam Am Express, not a bad running boat on a Mile and two thirds circle course. Mark,
I think the Hondo was to be the kilo boat and the revenge the racer. Gordy didn't feel comfortable in the hondo, he had been driving "B" boats his whole career. I will be shooting the superstocks this weekend in San Diego so I'll have Gordy refresh my memory and post unequivical fact on monday.
The Hondo sprint hull was awesome on some courses. Check the record book, George Woods still holds a "K" course record in Ed Trehe's boat. I think Ed still has that boat and resides up there near you. I have the late Bob Daileys SS-95 hondo.
Next time you see me at a race or v-drive outing pull me over so I can holla at ya. [/QB]Jerry,
I had to look in my archives, the k-boat richard bought from al lapoint was the "Tradition" boat K-23, I don't think I ever saw it run, George Woods was guy I know who could drive one of those hondo's, Ed's boat was 15mph faster than anybody in the day. One Smoken Machine.
