Rinker Wins Lakeland Race (Video)

The 2009 F1 ChampBoat season is still two months away but that didn't stop the defending champion from getting a little spring testing in over the weekend.

Team AMSOIL driver Terry Rinker headed east from his Tampa, Fla. home to take part in the 2009 Orange Cup Regatta, an APBA sanctioned event, in Lakeland, Fla.

Rinker turned in a perfect weekend against some familiar and some new competition, winning both finals on Saturday and Sunday. His son Rob also raced in the SST-45 class, picking up the win on Sunday, while his other son, Ashton, finished third.

Rinker's next race will be in Chattahoochee Fla. on March 21-22. The F1 ChampBoat series will start May 2-3 in Port Neches, Texas. AMSOIL is the Official Oil of the F1 ChampBoat series.

Until then, we'll see you at the races.
