Noteworthy was Bruce Wilhelm’s first win in the fifth race, his overall finish in seventh place with 5.45. Just ahead of Bruce was Anthony Quinn, who had three third-place finishes and a 5.1 average for sixth. At 5.0 and in fifth place overall was John Simms, who is dealing with electrical gremlins. He tried many different combinations of receivers, transmitters, and batteries to see if he could improve his erratic RC controls. Near the end of the afternoon, John won a race and had a third, so it would seem he is on the right track.

Finishing with a 3.91 average, Paul McBride came in fourth. Paul had a first-place finish in the first race and two seconds later on. In third, Rick Laird, with a 3.64 average, had five second-place finishes and a third in a span of nine races. Don Cundy, at a 3.09 average, is starting to get his boat moving well. He also showed consistency with a win, a second, and six third-place finishes. Tim Wright, at 1.18, won nine races and finished in second in the other four. He has been tough to catch.
