The father immediately raced to her aid in his minivan, the police said.

The father he was 6 foot 5 and known as Big Bill raced cars on the beach and started promoting races.

His father raced to the scene from Ohio, but it was six months before the body was recovered.

Her father, who is retired, designed and raced yachts.

Troxel, 15 at the time, was there because her father, Mike, raced in the top-alcohol class.

"I think that my father has been racing for so long that he was better able to get his car sorted out," Davey suggested.
