2.5 litre stock hydroplane - "S" Class

Welcome! 

It's 2008!  And, Team Hot Shot is going on it's third year of racing.  Still, quite new and young to the sport the team competes against the Nation's top boats in it's class.  Amazingly the crew consists of one, Teresa Anoskey.  "She's a big help!  I couldn't do it without her.  She always watches my back in case I forget something." says Tom Bergman the S-93 owner and driver.

The team is affiliated with the APBA - American Power Boat Association and the ABRA - American Boat Racing Association.

Their hometown is Evansville, Indiana.  One of the towns most anticipated annual events is the Evansville Freedom Festival's "Thunder On The Ohio" Unlimited Hydroplane Racing.  These Unlimited Hydro's are the main attraction.  You don't want to miss it!  A week long event which brings tens of thousands to the waterfront. 

In 2007, the Thunder On The Ohio event brought more than Unlimited Hydroplanes.  New to the schedule were the 2.5 litre stock hydroplanes.  A mini-series race event was formed between cities Evansville and Madison.  Team Hot Shot placed 2nd in Evansville and 1st in Madison while winning the overall mini series by acquiring the most in points.  "We're so proud to race in our hometown!  This experience will never be forgotten." says Tom.
