Check out this pic taken of us at Lake Whitney last weekend. I guess we have some extra skin? The real photo is much better quality. Can see wide open butterflies and heat from the Zoomies. I can count on 1 hand the numbers of brave souls willing to climb in the Cougar for a blast down the lake. http://members.cox.net/crazyokie/R&R.jpg

Info,
Awesome photo. It took a while to download off my wet string and tin can connection, but was worth the wait. Saved it under 'crazyokie' as a tribute...remember I used to live in Wichita...
At what speed do your jowls begin to flap like that? We gotta know.

DaveANot sure, I guess it depends on how fat you are. I can make my very fit 9 year old son's face do that.
Do not know what part of the run that was. At one point we were around 125. wink

Nice pic, do you run much on Grand Lake? I lived in NE Oklahoma till about four years ago. Grew up on Grand, had many life experiences on that water.

It was very close but the Cougar pulled him on the big end.

Ron, I think the more classic picture is where you're right off the line in the Snowman video.
You've got the front of the boat way up in the air and only the back 2' of the boat is in the water. I stopped action on the video but couldn't figure out how to save just that one shot.
Question, When you back off on it after a fast run is the whirlaway clicking or does the hull slow down fast enough to keep it engaged?
Nice videos and pictures, Looks like you guys had some great fun. eek! Be careful

MarkMark: Here you go: The whirl-a-way does not click unless the engine dies for some reason.
