Welcome!
Hi ya'll, My name is Brooke and I am the wife of Roddy Foreman of Foreman Racing. Since this is my first season to be a 'boat racing wife' I thought I would blog about all of my adventures of the 2011 tunnel boat racing season. I welcome new friends and posts!

Bodacious Box Van Bonanza! last Wed am- Thursday night
Focus. 2 days in a box van with excited race boaters is quite an experience for a girl. First off- kudos to Roddy for even buying the box van in the first place to transport us- it's awesome! Our box van has a RV- like middle with a bed, tv, microwave, sink and frig! Comfortable for sure! In the back there is an open mechanics section for boat racing stuff. It's really easy for them to get what they need, store it, have shelter to work on things if they need it. What's really great for me as a BR (boat racing) wife is that I can be slightly separated from all the endless 'gearhead' talk that evidently always happens on these trips. Roddy and Johnny talked, discussed, argued, dreamed, reminisced and whatever else you could do during the trip- the true constant- non-stop boat racing talk. It went a little like this: drive your shift while talking about boat racing for hours, pee or food break while continuing to talk boat racing memories, check on the boat straps, trailer, etc. and discuss more boat racing and REPEAT. Thank God they love to stop and look at the boat alot- that means extra pee breaks! whew!
