At Brewster this weekend with the GP-10 The Freak for an exhibition only event for us. We want to get a good rinse out in fresh water after being in salt water in San Diego. Arriving to wind and rain!
Happy birthday to our crew guy Paul! Radio guy and super cool uncle to driver Kevin. Dad to driver Austin. It's a family affair. He also helps drive the 17 hauler and paint the boats. We love you Pauly!
The entire Richards Racing team would like to recognize and thank our engine builder Ed Trihey!! There really aren't adequate words to describe the amount of time and energy Ed devotes to ensure our engine program is top of the line! His knowledge of boat set up is epic. For example the GP-10 The Freak team ran the same engine from spring training testing to the championship run and win in San Diego. That engine never came out of the boat all season!
He even drove with the 10 team to San Diego sharing hauler driving duties with Kevin. Ed you are the best!!!
