Remembering Clint Wright

Love, Thoughts & Prayers for the Wright Family, Team Steady Pumpin & Robin Lombel

September 7th, 2014 was a sad day for all of us within the OPA Racing Organization. After the 1st race concluded in which SVL ran, Clint Wright, the throttleman for Team Steady Pumpin, collapsed not long after our race was finished. We learned a little while later that Clint had passed away.

How do you describe such a great man like Clint Wright in one paragraph? He was a loving man that was devoted to his family and stepchildren. He lived life to the fullest with no regrets. He had such a passion for boats and speed. Clint learned to drive a boat when he was 10 years old. He was 12 when he received his first boat and 14 when he drove the Intercoastal Waterway in its entirety. Team Steady Pumpin will forever miss their throttle man. It is not often you meet someone that always put everyone else’s needs before his own, but he did. He has many friends and loved ones that are so deeply saddened by his sudden passing. We have lost a great man, but have gained a perfect angel.

Godspeed
