New driver for Boss
New Zealand’s leading power boat driver, Peter Knight, sen., of Christchurch, will not contest the last two races of the Epi Class Grand Prix sprint series at Lake Karapiro this week-end. Instead, he will hand The Boss over to his son, P.G., for the remaining heats. Last week-end at Lake Karapiro, Knight, sen.,
wrapped up the series by winning three races and this followed an unbeaten three-race series the week earlier. Knight has an unbeatable lead and has decided to opt out of this week-end’s final series, although he said yesterday he plans to drive The Boss in the first event “It’s worth $1000”. After that his son will take over.
