This pretty much sums up how LMR Team feels at the moment. I have to firstly thank all our friends and family who have supported us in what we love to do.
To take the Southern 80 SMOC record from Silent which has been held for 7 years was undoubtably the best achievement we have to date, it wasn't an easy ride by any means having to pass Streamline and the gusty conditions didn't help.
Thanks to Chris Maher and Michael Boylan for skiing their asses off and dealing with everything I threw at you.
To Garry "Spanner" McConnell, your an absolute legend of a bloke and observer, Thank you for all your commitment over the last 20 odd years, I'm pretty sure you had a little tear in your eye as we crossed the finish line. 😂
Well done to the Still No Dramas and Queen Vic ski race teams who also finished on the podium.
Thanks also to Wes Frost Marine for giving us a reliable engine, your knowledge and technical support is second to none.
Now we focus on the next race the Robinvale 80, see you there.
