Unlimited circuit, 1437 01:32:13,917 --> 01:32:17,583 although they haven't won a race since 1973. 1438 01:32:19,583 --> 01:32:23,542 My father once said that only someone who had raced competitively 1439 01:32:23,625 --> 01:32:25,709 could understand why so many men 1440 01:32:25,792 --> 01:32:28,834 had given their lives to the sport of boat racing. 1441 01:32:30,417 --> 01:32:33,542 My father continued racing until 1975 1442 01:32:33,625 --> 01:32:37,542 when an accident forced him to retire from the circuit altogether. 1443 01:32:37,625 --> 01:32:40,834 He remained a fixture in the sport and in Madison 1444 01:32:40,917 --> 01:32:43,166 until his death in 1996. 1445 01:32:48,959 --> 01:32:52,834 That following summer, I began racing on the Unlimited circuit. 1446 01:32:52,917 -->
