The Motorsports Community is grieving the loss of Racing Legend, Mike Kuhl, who passed away Tuesday evening. Mike leaves behind a legacy of designing and building highly competitive race engines that outperformed the competition on land and on the water. Mike journeyed from his hometown of St. Louis, Missouri to Southern California in 1964. Upon arriving, Mike worked for Louie Unser’s Engine Shop but quickly developed his own engine building style which lead him to open Mike Kuhl Racing.

In 1971 Mike teamed up with race car driver Carl Olson as co-owner and crew chief and together they dominated the quarter mile. Kuhl’s tuned dragsters won the Winternationals, the March Meet, and The Last Drag Race at Lions Drag Strip, plus secured a IHRA world championship. In 2007 Kuhl and Olson were awarded the NHRA California Hot Rod Reunion Lifetime Achievement Award.

“Legends like Mike Kuhl inspired the building of the Lions Drag Strip Museum and his accomplishments will continue to be remembered”, stated, Lions Automobilia Foundation and Lions Drag Strip Museum Founder Rick Lorenzen.

***UPDATE ON THUNDER ON THE RIVER 2 EVENT***

Well we just received the call we were dreading. The casino has decided that all events are cancelled until further notice due to the recommendations from the CDC and Governor Ducey. This is unfortunate as we were looking forward to time together to escape the craziness that is going on right now and just go racing.

We understand how this affects you all, we are racers too at the end of the day. Believe me when I say we have already put so much work and efforts in to equipment maintenance, repairs, time preparing, etc. So much goes in to the preparation weeks ahead of time. This is not an ideal situation for any one. However we do understand the need for it during this time.

We ask that you give us space today so we can make all of the necessary phone calls we need to all of our volunteers, sponsors, partners and take the time to cancel travel arrangements, etc.

We will be moving all pre-registered entires to the next event that you are attending. Let's hope this event ban doesn't last long. In the mean time, go wash your hands!

Copied from Alesha Thompson Helm's post. Please help if you can:

For those of you that have not heard we have a friend and an Outlaw boat racer that was involved in an accident a few weeks ago. He has been in the hospital and has suffered paralysis from his neck down. Although he has regained some movement he still has a long road to recovery. He has undergone surgery and is currently waiting on a second surgery.

Stephen Edwards aka Big Steve is not the type of person to ask anyone for help- but he needs our help as he has no medical insurance.

His daughter Kasey Lewis has sent me information - stating a benefit barrel race will be held for him on May 30th at the Marshall Texas City Arena. They are looking for sponsors, donations for auction and much more.

We as a boat group always try to help people in need whenever we can especially one of our own, it just so happens that it isn’t boating season and that makes it harder to gather up donations. Please keep Big Steve in your prayers as the next few months are going to be hard on him. Pray for a full recovery!

Kasey’s pay pal address is listed below for anyone wishing to donate directly to him -

[email protected]

I am attaching the information on the barrel race so you have all the information needed.

If anyone has questions - Kasey is a member here please feel free to tag her.

Thank you all in advance - I know Big Steve and his family will appreciate anything extra you may have.

Information on Fundraiser

Hey! We officially have a date for the Run for Steve benefit barrel race. It will be May 30th 2020 at the Marshall Texas City Arena. We are currently looking for any donations, sponsorships or even silent action items. If you would like to send a donation or be a sponsor please send money with your information to [email protected] and your logo to [email protected]. If silent auctions items need to be picked up, I can meet or come by. Just let me know. If you’re unable to make a donation, sponsorship or give a silent auction item, I am just asking that you spread the word. We are hoping for a big turn out. Thank you so much in advance.

Mission: The Oklahoma Hot Boat Association (OHBA) is a family oriented club that aims to raise awareness and camaraderie of performance boaters throughout Oklahoma and surrounding areas.

History: The OHBA was formed in 2007 by the local hot boaters that enjoy Okmulgee State Park as their local boating lake. Their goal was to promote the Okmulgee Hot Boat Bash which occurred annually in August and is still held every year to this day. In 2016 the club’s name was changed from Okmulgee Hot Boat Association to Oklahoma Hot Boat Association, in order to reflect the club’s expansion and inclusion of events to be held at various lakes across the State of Oklahoma. The OHBA still calls Okmulgee Lake home and the club goals remain the same just with the added adventure of bringing the fun and show to neighboring lakes. The OHBA was formed by twelve members and has grown by leaps and bounds every year as word spreads of the organization. Members come from all around; Oklahoma City and Tulsa areas, Arkansas, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri and Texas, to name a few. The OHBA maintains that the club is for anyone interested in the sport of performance boating, from the weekend warrior to the full blown race team. The OHBA welcomes all!

Meetings: Meetings are held with notice posted. The locations for events and meetings will be posted here prior to with as much notice as possible.

Membership: Dues are $35.00 per year per family.

Payments: You may pay payments using cash, check or money order when you arrive at an event or meeting.

Come join the fun and fellowship the OHBA has to offer! We hope to see you at our next event!

Thomas Wayne Morrow - View Obituary & Service Information

Smithville – Thomas “Tom” Wayne Morrow, 87, died Sunday, December 8, 2019 at the North Mississippi Medical Center, Tupelo, MS. Born on August 8, 1932, in Fulton, MS, he was the son of the late Coy Morrow and Jewell Umfress Morrow.

Tom graduated Itawamba Agricultural High School and Itawamba Community College. He moved to Memphis, TN, in 1951. Tom married Lenta Zoe Garner Morrow on April 12, 1952 and together they had two daughters, Marsha Lynn Holloway (deceased) and Melisa Diane Stroud.

He was employed by Layne and Bowler as Engineering Manager for 26 years. This is where his interests in water pumps lead him to a new career. He opened his own business “Jet Pump Repair, Inc.” where he designed, built, and invented new ways to improve jet pumps used in Jet Boat Racing. He was never interested in driving a race boat yet he was passionate in figuring ways to improve speed and safety in the sport of boat racing. He was the owner of several race boats, Final Edition, Blown Dollars and the co-owner of boats such as Tennessee Thunder, which all held world racing records. He was well known from coast to coast as “The Pump Man”.

Tom was a founding member and served on the Board of Directors of the Mid South Drag Boast Association. Some of his other interests were naturally built around speed, like attending Nascar races where he was always cheering on Dale Earndhart, and NHRA races. Tom is survived by his wife, Lynn; daughter, Melisa “Missy” Stroud (L.D.), New Blaine, AR; grandchildren, Andy Holloway (Casey), Amory, MS, Brad Thompson, Austin, AR, Cassie Baldwin (Bill), North Little Rock, AR; great grandchildren, Mac Kane, Saltillo, MS, Noe Holloway, Memphis, TN, Reed Holloway, Amory, MS, Andi Kate Holloway, Amory, MS, Beau and Charlie Baldwin, North Little Rock, AR; brother, Paul Morrow, Smithville, MS; several nieces and nephews.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his daughter, Marsha Lynn Holloway in 1999; brother, Billy Morrow in 1999.

Funeral services for Tom will be held on Wednesday, December 11, 2019 at 11:00 am at Smithville Baptist Church, Smithville with Bro Wes White officiating. Burial will follow in New Salem Cemetery, Itawamba County, MS.

Visitation for family and friends will be Tuesday evening, December 10, 2019, from 5-8 pm at church in Smithville, MS.

Memories and condolences may be shared with his family at EEPickleFuneralHome.com

Share Memories and Support the Family.
