Bad ass chevelle made the trek down the 2 mile long dirt road. Too bad Dmontzsta's maxima was down for a new 4 valve, type R, JDM. Would've been a close race. :rolleyes:

Cool pics, looks like it was fun!.. :cool:

[RUSHIN ROULETTE]

Looks like a good time. I could hear the boats today from Oak Canyon Park next door. When is the next event?

[dmontzsta]

It was definately cool of Mark and Jimmy to offer the ride in their GN boat. That boat is a total sleeper and rides bitchen. That chevelle was weak, once I put the Maxima in 3rd gear, see ya! :D Thanks again to DaveN for putting this on and it was good to see you.
Did anyone see the jetboat run? I saw it parked at the end of the lot.

[river redy]

Had a great time watching hoping my boat is redy for the next one, Thanks Dave

Jerry...How'd the thing run!! We did all the bracketry(fuel tank, alternator, etc.) and built the v-drive in the thing. I hadn't seen it since it left my shop! Did it leave OK? Kinda thought it would need a little more downpedal geometry for a deadwater start.
PS...speaking of the injector...I needed a stepstool to reach the thing to make the throttle cable bracket!! :D :D :D
PPS...That is also the LAST chromepowder coated V-Drive we are going to be able to get done for a while! :frown: :frown: :frown:

He said he just started it last night (Sat) and wasn't ready to lay it down. It sounds quite healthy! :cool: Where were you guys?

[Dave Sammons]

I didn't take any photos of the boat while it was here. As I was making parts and fitting them to the boat, Brian was taking them to get polished or anodized. The V-Drive was the last thing I built and installed,then he took the boat and bolted all the parts in. I have pics of the one in my boat I'll try to dig up...I think the one in "Cold Fire Revisited" has been done as well. The Chrome P/C sure looks/works good on a v-drive....

I am just kicking around what I want to do. I am looking for a simple wipe off, I do not want to polish alluminum with the new boat. :)

I talked to Brian this evening...He said she feels pretty STOUT! :crossx: :crossx:
Where were you guys?
Thanks for asking. Hated to miss it, but...This was 12:15am Saturday morning...My first GrandDaughter, Juliana Grace, made her appearance! :cool: :cool:
http://www.***boat.com/image_center/data/520/1517ja7.jpg
Then I figured I better get started on Terry Blaire's Bubbledeck, because I keep thinkin' someday soon a yellow Nordskog might show back up here and then...Rumor has it, that a freshly painted, silver metalflake, B-boat should be in right behind it! :D :D But..it's just a rumor!!!! Your thoughts, JG??

Dave, congrats..you must be 60 years old. You do look a little like Dick Clark. Hope you can keep her out of the bars and off the brass pole for awhile. With your lifestyle that won't be easy...Love Ya...RCL

[vdriver4ever]

Congrats to you and your family Dave... Nothing like a little one to put everything in prospective for us.

[supremeWAXer]

[dossangers]

http://www.***boat.com/image_center/data/516/167janas_boat_irvine_001.jpg A big shout out of THANKS to Dave Rankin and John Avery with the last 2 details i needed to iron out before testing There Help is PRICELESS!!! Also the boat ran great What a blast an SS boat is to drive. Of course the WILTON motor has plenty of BEANS! Just a note of interest took the boat up to the CASINOS yesterday at the river all the way and passed the nevada patrol boat 2 times the MUFFLERS WORKED ive gotten 2 tickets from those guys they will pull you over just for fun!! :rollside: :rollside:

Thanks to ALMOST everyone for the kind words. Didn't mean to do a mini hijack of the thread about my Granddaughter, but, with that said, I had a boss that one time told me when it comes to behavior, "people are consistent". How about our boy RCL! Only he could look at a picture of a 15minute old baby girl and start thinking about STRIPPERS! :rolleyes: :rolleyes: You are a BEAUTY Lou!

Who cares big guy! Be proud...it does not bother me. :D

cool, I saw you rolling in from a distance I was hoping you dropped it in, I wanted to see it run. :) maybe next time.

[BA Kurtis]

This boat just raised the bar for what constitutes "The Shit" when it comes to rigging. I was blown away when I was looking at it, and everywhere you looked there was something even cooler then what you just saw! Prime is definately king of the hill when it comes to "custom" nowdays.
RD
Both that boat and the Barron next to it are amazing, prime is doing some awsome work, we had a great time sat., after looking at these pictures I wish we would have went sun. to, Mike Collins and Dave it was good talkin with you guys, Mike we enjoyed watchin you run boat is lookin good :) :)
