Not sure which board member owns/drives this boat. I thought i recognized it from being in hot boat magazine when i paired up against it on sunday at Ming. I definately recognized that the N02 bottle was full by the needle on the regulator!
Just wanted to say that it was my favorite pairing of the weekend and thanks for a good race. That is one fast boat!

That was a great race. One of the best of the weekend. I though you had him as you killed him at the lights. He was realing you in big time and just nipped ya at the lights.

This product lets you convert regular RCA signals to USB. Comes with some pretty good software that lets you convert any type of media to another. Great compression also. I can convert a regular 5+Meg AVI to about a 1Kb Wav file. Only problem is it is $70. On the other hand, it is a hole lot cheaper than trying to go buy a digital video camera.

We had a great time for sure....It was good to see everyone......Cyclone, We didn't know that was you at the time..Your boat runs good.. I jest watched the video.. I'll post some pics later today.. Our ET's surprised us for sure..The best we could squeeze out of it was an 8.883 @120.65 with a lake tune-up, our mechanic couldn't make it so we jest ran it the way it came off the trailer... The lights we're definetly a problem... Hope to see you again next month...

Thanks Sangster . It was fun for sure but I wish we could have made it all the way down the track more than once ? Still trying to figure out what happened ? That's part of racing I guess :D

Sangster glad to hear Jeff had fun running the hydro, and it sounds like it was running good. And Mike I saw Bill Radke at my shop today and he said you were running or should I say "LAUNCHING HARD". Sounds like your in the same boat as i'm in...Boat won't run and don't know why. Good luck finding out the problem. See you guys soon.
