I know, I know ... I'll take it easy now. But I have a TON of pictures of most everyone at NJBA (yes I have the after hour ones too) ... so this could get interesting.
i got them to the pic part of hb but that was it.
I found Mike's (Rexone's) post here on how to do it ... it's step by step (I need that sometimes)

and yes that boat is sickkkkkkkkk.
Thanks ... it's my father-in-laws ... we built the engine and rigged it ourselves ... it's just a lake boat that he decided to go racing in ... 800 lb hull, heavy lay up w/ a 427 BBC ... that's all ...

That is absolutley amazing. Bet it's a sweet ride across the lake :2purples: !!! CAn I ask what something like that costs. I'm trying to figure something new out for a winter project, and the boat really needs more power...

PS. Congrats on figuring the HB conspiracy of posting pics...

I think with that PSI blower you will be up there... You will have to saw off a few boats first to even get the big dogs attention.

Well ... actually, this is the high points champion in Blown Gas Jet currently w/ NJBA ... the big dogs might have to get our attention rather than vise versa ... :D

If someone can tell me how to post pics I will post some racing pics from the previous races. I know how to do a shortcut from the image center but have not figured out how to load a pic directly to a posting. Thanks, Jeff

Yes ... he's my father-in-law ...
And if you know Ron ... he'll never upgrade! A jetter until he'll die. I have tried to have him make a pass in my hydro ... he says no way. I've made passes in this and it's no river runner. However, Chris, Finnegan & Nelson have his interests sparked about big river ... and now I'm thinking Blythe! :D

If you are talking about the pop off valve (big black thing on the pump) I guess that would depend on how fast you're going and if you are having a hard time shutting the boat down at high speeds.
You can do a search on pop offs here on the threads ... I have explained them in depth as well as others have and the need for race / lake use.

Here you go Brad ... you had the jump on Cress there!
http://www2.***boat.com/image_center/data/500/2713DSCF1335.JPG
I have complete faith that you and Tommy will have that boat there in no time, along with Finnegan, Cress, and Willis too! We have a couple of things up our sleeve for the next race ... I just hope when I'm done with it that Ron will stay in it! :D
Edit: I forgot the picture ... oops!

It's all good ... we like to keep that 1 second gap ... then if Ron doesn't cut a light, he can run you down! You're getting too close already!
Good luck in Texas!
