there's seems to be some discrepancies between what i read on the board and what i saw on the video regarding the matchups..........
3 or 4 of the pairings were pretty lopsided.
lots of boats chasing other boats that left early. did everyone forget their river racing skills?
that said, labor day weekend should be monumental if all those boats end up in the same locale.
game on. :)

They must have had a different camera angle or they were looking on the other side of the island... :D
Still cool to see so many boats run all in one location, but I like the river better then the lagoon where you can run for 10 seconds wot and have all the room to shut down.

Todd Todd Todd... You know I don't run with the anchor, ice chest, and other crap in the boat. As for the bow light, I thought it was a nice touch, but it has gone away when the old hull was sold and there are no plans for adding one to the CP. Heck, I even take out the back seat cushions because they can fly out. I know because I had one hit the motor before. So I take them out only for that reason (miss the newer interior I had in my old boat) but I have thought about some velcro to hold them down like my last boat had.
Now, don't worry about what I have in my boat, you should be working on getting your boat in the water :D

Well i apreciate the fact that you think my garage built terd makes big power but im sure we are in the same ball park. As for the lay up they are pretty close but the difference is i havnt been tweekeing on mine for four or five years and i dont do it for a livin either but if i can wake up early enough or should i say go to sleep early enough ill role up and let ya have a shot at me as long as we can drink a beer afterwords. Loser buys!:) Either way im ok cause i got CL in my chest and you got CL in yours.
HB i cant run him a few times i will have a hard enough time just doing it once without breaking something.;)
Anything that turns 8800 on a pass is making some power DJD ;)

I wish it would run 8800 loaded but it doesnt it oly runs 8300 and 8500 on wind choped water but im sure as you know if i put an intake pressure gauge on,it wouldnt read much pressure at all. It doesnt seem like the rpm to mph is rite to me. Glad to hear that you are back in the water not havin a boat runnin is a pisser and ridin shotgun gets old after awhile.See ya on Labor Day if not down at the deal they are trying to do i will be at Aha later that afternoon for the CP dealio and some evening runs.

you should hook up with Harold & Harold Jr. ... your boat is very similar to Jr.'s old Daytona ... he was running blown alcohol ... they probably have the set up & hardware to get you to the 145 mark from his boat ... :idea:

I am planning on shooting a few birds first, I am going to leave the ride in the garage at Harry`s So all I have to do is drive down when we are done. I think Djd, shoe and Bense are going to be with me. If all goes well and we don`t shoot each other by accident. We should be there right about the right time. Maybe DJD might want to leave his boat there in the mourning on his way up to AHA. I can call Harry and park his ride right in front so nobody F`s with it. If he is game.
I`ll pass on the cope, jack & eggs. Lets make Harry and the boys make breakfast.
I'm in Mike. Just got in and packin for yuma. Have a good weekend.
