The world hovercraft championships

Yep that's right!!! In our own backyard...Well kind of. After riding ILRA this morning the Wiz, Butt, DC and myself rode over to the beach to check out this event. They had a PA set up playing music and plenty of parking set up for "RV's and Trailers". It looked like they were expecting a HUGE turnout. The only thing was we didn't see that many hovercraft. Maybe 10 at the most. So after spending about 20 minutes watching a guy out on the lake setting up bouys we decided that the event most likely wasn't starting until later in the afternoon. Then a voice blasts over the PA system "drivers meeting in 10 minutes at the tent". Hilarious where else could one compete in a "world championship" with a one out of ten chance in winning it. Also most of the hovercraft looked to be at least 20 years old and to call them rickety would be an understatement.
