Hi Rayson {raisen,raison} Crapt. smile_sp So glad you wont miss it this year. Seems like you do lots of work for other folks and not much time for yourself. Don't forget to volunteer for something fun. Like: Bikini or Liquor Inspector, Salvage diver {wouldnt be a bad place to dive} USDA meat inspector, etc. Still hope your Dad comes with one of those neat tow trucks and brings the Sanger or the Marlin. When my money comes in I hope to make an offer on it. Heck, you could wreck it out for the small price. I need R.H. stuff for my H2OCrapt. Dont forget to bring some boat stuff also for sale to pay for the fuel bill. Last year was a buyers heaven for boat parts. And as I said three boats sold for good dollars, 10G, 3.5G, and 6G.
Oh, almost forgot, some of the VIPs include Funny Car driver and NHRA division rep: Gordie Bonnin { 240 Gordy } The Canadians sure remember him. One of the interesting interviews I have lined up. We also will be broadcasting on AM or Fm radio so bring a boom box with the cooler and pup tent!
The alcohol show should be fast in the hydro ranks with three boats in the high 90's, and of course look for those vintage inboard hydros. We expect so many boats that a numbering system will be implimented to organize the lanches and free up pit space! Also, this year will feature a group picture shoot of all the inboards awaiting the start gun so we can share the excitement with you all here on the boards. Sound good? You Washington, Idaho, and Oregon folks should already have made your reservations before its too late! Sleeping on picnic tables is permitted, however.
Bring boats, any kind, for the opening floating parade of colors while a celebrity sings the Anthem to start the show. {this is where the blown boats star} See you there! Going to the shop now.....JeRk smile_sp

Or is that handled? Do you have experience in this field or would you like some? I think it is too late to get your name on the insurance roster but maybe if you are willing for the future, what a great spot to view the race and I know we could use two divers when the ____ hits the fan! Dont you want to dive for recreation? Check out the Girls? I also sent you a Pm.... smile_sp
Flat Rat, I cant wait to introduce you to FlatRat! This could put a new twist to the phrase Pressed Rat! By the way, his boat is Yellow! Yikes...cheezy. Are you bringing a boat to the party? Remember to bring unwanted boat parts to sell and pay for the trip! Or trade for what you need and save. Back to the shop or I wont make it with two... smile_sp
News flash: One of the first Super Stock racers ever, may be attending this race! He also has rigged many boats over the years. We welcome him to our experienced inspection team and of course to the good food, entertainment, and SPIRITS! Thanks Vdriver4ever smile_sp It just keeps getting better and better!!! smile_sp
CircleJerk - I called Brian P last week and he said he might come over and bring the Howard. Talked to Ray with the 55 Nomad and Hondo he said he will be there. Al is going to bring two boats.
Jerkyguy,
Thanks for the call today.
Will see you there bright and early...
Hope there will be COFFEE.
