Nov. 4th, IHBA World Finals, Chandler, AZ *This race had been scheduled for the weekend of Oct. 19th-22nd but after qualifying, Sunday's eliminations were rained out. So we came back two weeks later to finish the eliminations on Saturday 11/4. This was our best performance of the year. 14 boats started in our class and we went 4 tough rounds against some very tough competitors to not only win the race but also to wrap up the points championship. We also set a new IHBA record of 133 MPH. It was a great way to finish the IHBA season.

Nov.5th NJBA Finals at Lake Ming, Bakersfield, CA. *We drove all night after the IHBA awards ceremony to Bakersfield for this finals race. Since there was another Pro Gas Jet that had entered in our class, we had to race him instead of getting bumped up to UFJ. We won that race with a respectable ET of 7.78 at 131 mph. We also ended up in 2nd place for the points championship in the UFJ class. That's it, this season is over. It's been a lot of fun.

Winner of the 2000 IHBA Pro Competition Eliminator High Points Championship!
