just heard from needles

[Cousin Bob]

I just spoke with ACCEPTANCE, BILLY B, an the BOLT NAZI, everyone having a great time, and everyone has made it there O.K.
Smalls was out running when I was on the phone, apparently his deal is looking very good. Right on!
Rumor has it that theres one guy who has a hole new ride this year was out running, and he had to go home to change his shorts. I don,t know exactly who it was. But I have some good ideas who.
This has got me motivated to get there even sooner. I plan on getting there Tuesday, early evening, won't be soon enough.
If anyone else is heading there, hope you have a safe trip.

[AdrenelineOD]

[Morg]

Gladd to here the party is happening.

[Dragboat Dad]

Thanks for the update CB. Can't wait to get there, leaving Wed morning at 4. Be there by 9 if we don't get caught speedin' by the man.

[Cousin Bob]

Dragboat Dad, save the speed for the river, no need for any unwanted tickets, they suck butt.
Better to take your time, and getting there safely!!!!!

[scottys]

Perfect boating conditions-nice temps-no wind-good water levels. Be there full time

[Sangster]

I wish I could..... I jest got the boat back today.. It's supposed to be ready to Rock & Roll....Now if I only had more time in my busy schedule......:D :D :D

[stix818]

We cruised by Sunday evening after getting my hotrod finished up and met a couple of the guys. They all seem to be having some fun since it was a bit windy. Hopefully I'll get a chance to stop by and meet a couple more guys before we head to Phoenix on Thursday. The wind is suppose to pick up tomorrow but hopefully turn out nice towards the weekend. Be safe and kick some A$$!!:D

[ssmike]

RTJ - Thanks for the "look in"
Is that Rayson GN (yellow) turbo deal still for sale? Or, is that the new owner mashing the gas.
Hope everyone has a great time....Be safe.

You can ride with us if you like.
Brian

[stix818]

Kindsvater Flat, that's who was driving. When I found that out I was shocked because I haven't seen to many women drive a flatty!!

[Kindsvater Flat]

Notice how she leans to the right so she can push the throttle through the floor....

ohhh dude that was cold:D The Canyon ran well all week:) It sets really well with the new prop. I was pulling away while racing one particular boat. When we got back in his gps read 107mph. Most everybody was very careful lots of safety gear visible and worn:D. Biggie Smalls was dialed in and smokin. Yesterday he used himself as bait, hooked a quick CP jet boat docked across the river, set the hook, reeled him in and then proceeded to filet the guy. It was beautiful:cool: VDV got it all on tape. Maybe next year some of us SoCal guys will have the balls to do that. Sure was a great week Hud sent out some serious smoke signals every night. I think they might break 100 #'s of Kung Fu Shrooms tonight Can't wait for the guys with cameras to start posting the pics.
