Sept 20-22,2002.  Took Mike to the WHC2002 races in Terre Haute.  Had a great time and talked to many of the people I have had email conversations with.  All the racers were very friendly and spent time talking to Mike.  We also meet Bob Windt from UH and he talked to mike about his UH-6F.  Good time had by all!   
Took Mike to Terrre Haute for the HC races.  He was very surprised as he did not know we were going until he got off the school bus on Friday.  After watching the races, Mike wants to trade in his UH-6F in on a F1 racer.  We will see....
Mike with Jerry Coffeman ("Slidder").  Jerry makes his own HCs and this is his latest.  Very nice looking craft.  Jerry took Mike for a ride.
We went into the pit area during the races.  The racers were all very nice and spent time talking to visitors.  Here is mike with one of the racers from Australia.
Here is Mike with Harold Carter.  Harold has a Star Cruiser but he also made a very nice looking 12T4.
Myself, Mike and Bob Windt from Universal Hovercraft (and Junk Yard wars fame).  Bob had his WIG craft at TH.  Bob took time to talk with Mike about his UH-6F.  Real nice guy.
The racers from Japan had a spiffy looking hovercraft.  They were a lot of fun and let Mike sit in their craft.
