Cup
a SOLO for Stan? |
By Ted Madden |
The 1975 Griffith Cup on January 26, will be a Solo event for Stan Jones, judging from his success at Yarrawonga. |
Driving the big aircraft-engined hydroplane, Solo, Jones won the Yarrawonga championship untroubled against a top field which included a number of Griffiths Cup hopes. Boats which could not beat Solo over the triangular Lake Mulwala course, would have no chance of turning the tables on the long straights of Lake Eppaloch. Solo was narrowly beaten by
the runabout Shadrich on Boxing Day, but it was her first
race since her return from America and Stan Jones was only interested
in a warm-up run . |
