It was good to see all my buddies again:
repo man
V-Drive Video
Ntwotrance
FourQ
Nucking Futs
76Barron
HolyMoly
Not Twice
Jim Wilkes
SuperDave
It was also good to finally meet up with:
Billy B
Eraser
ssmike
and my LaveyCraft buddy...(forgot his name)
I was going to meet up with dossangers but he seemed pretty occupied with getting the motor running, I will catch up with you next time Wayne.
John, thanks again for the ride. I forgot what it was like to ride in a flatbottom, it has been a while for me, I have the itch now. You have really done well with that boat, it comes alive up top, peeled my cheeks back. :D I will catch up again with you soon.
I took around 400 pics and lots of vids. I am not going to post that many, but here are the ones I took.
I hope to see all of you out there again as well as meet some more faces.

Did John get on it for you? I think we hit 6300rpm and it felt fast enough for me.

ahhh, that sucks dude...I am sure he will hook you up next time. He has done a really good job with that 396 it makes 503hp on the dyno with 10:1 compression on good ole pump gas, it runs in the 90s.
We will have to go out cruising at Elsinore once I get mine finished, of course it is way less hp, but still a boat and thats all the counts. Maybe we can drag Tim out with his cruiser too, as well as my dad and ntwotrance.

Great pics Don. I really need to get out on the water but between work and re-modeling the house I have no time. I am looking ahead to stripping the boat down for paint after the summer and will make up my mind once and for all if I change engines back to a chevy depending how the olds operates this summer. keep up the good job of promoting Laveys as we are few and far between. :D v-drive

This guy did a good job of entertaining....there were a few people who had money him to get wet.
Small Block Mike did not put on his usual show because it motor go boom.
There were some real nice passes laid down. The water was nice all day!

Billy's boat was my favorite one there, when he ran that sucker close to shore at 100+ everyone shut up...but then again you couldnt talk anyways. lol

http://dmontzsta.werd.com/IrvineLake6-12-05/100_3245.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]Thanks for the pics Don. Any chance you got the one where I side stepped the clutch...... :eek: :eek:

[dmontzsta]

Hey Billy, no problem. It was a pleasure to finally meet you, your son Conner is a cool kid also.
Unfortunately I do not have that pic, but I was watching that and the drunk dudes next to us said "That guy doesnt know how to drive, he is going to eat shit" lol.
I have a shitty video though, but I am sure Jerry has some higher quality ones. I hope to see you guys out there again and see that bad mother ****er run...man that boat got my adrenaline pumping just hearing it roar through the canyon and scream down the straights, I almost think you can keep up with my L boat. ;) j/p

[HM]

I think I saw that and I thought you were just showing off. :D
I wanted to introduce myself, but my 4 year old kept me pre-occupied. I was camped just behind your trailer in a white E-350 Ford Van. I wanted to thank you for Bob Thompon's # as he did an awesome job on my CF lettering and the name on the back.

Any way you can put me in touch with him??
Thanks in advance, Jim

[dmontzsta]

His name is 76Barron on the boards and I cannot let out his "secrets" in case he doesnt want anyone to know.

[epidemic]

I was out at irvine and noticed gordy was to much of a wimp to step inside his K-69 boat. and to top things off he puts in some old fart driver in there. Not to long ago he was claiming jullian and duff. :devil: now he wont even step in his ride. wife got the balls?

Now thats got to be a classic case of the pot calling the kettle black. You can say what you want but I had a great time running Gordy's boat around I have to say it is almost as fast as my SS :smile: :smile: :smile:
