Jimmy Shane edged J Michael Kelley by less than one boat length to win the Air National Guard H1 Unlimited Series hydroplane racing event at Tri-Cities, Wash., on Sunday.
Dave Villwock, the Detroit Gold Cup champion, finished third in the first ANG event since the race on the Detroit River.
Shane, of Havre de Grace, Maryland, who drives the U-5 Graham Trucking, called the victory, "the fulfillment of a childhood dream."
