Steve Schmitz gets first Career Win at President's Cup


Steve Schmitz, driving his beautiful new Squire Shop, won his first race in RCU at the June 15 President's Cup in Tacoma.

Steve was tied for the lead in points going into the final, but got left behind at the start. He completed lap one in fourth place behind race Leader David Newton with the Miss 7-11, second place Kirk Maupin with the Squire and first connie winner, Jeff Heimkes with his Executone. As those three boats entered turn one of lap two all sorts of mayhem broke loose. David Newton went over, followed by Kirk Maupin and then Heimkes boat went over when it glanced off the 7-11. In a matter of less than two seconds, Steve moved from fourth to first.

Given such an opportuntiy Steve wasn't about to let the victory escape his grasp. He easily handled the rest of the field. Secondplace went to Bob Hulliger in the Elam Plus and third went to 'Zane Courtway with his new Miss Madison. Fourth was Gary Grembowski with the Miss Emcor.
