DCB at Lake Cumberland Poker Run

[Crowncat]

Wanted to give you West coasters a report on one of the poker runs out here. The Lake Cumberland Poker Run had over 150 boats, estimated 40,000 spectators, 2 DCB's, approximately 25 Eliminators and a kickin 130 mph Advantage Party cat. Dirk from Extreme in North Carolina brought the F-32 with the Deano paint and the Vipers. His mission was to "prove" the DCB to the east. He drove the fire out of the 32 all day. This is not as much a race as some of the PR's especially since the Texoma tragedy a week before this, but he was about 5th coming back after the second card stop. He was in company of all mega horsepower skater, hustler, MTI. The lake was rough, not an ocean but very rough. The boat flew very well. My F-34 cruised through the rough stuff while the big fountains were being thrown around. Lots of Eliminators ran well. I was very impressed by the F-32/Viper package, it can't go 150 but it did reliably keep up with the big guns in a real world situation.
