1997 Virginia is For
Lovers Cup NORFOLK -- The weather gods that frowned on the Virginia Is For Lovers Cup Unlimited Hydroplane races over the Memorial Day weekend came up all smiles Saturday, the second time around. Almost-perfect racing conditions brought smiles to everyone from Norfolk city manager James Oliver to the racers, owners, drivers, crews and spectators.
