There's a lot of talk on two other forums I frequent about attending the annual Shootout @ LOTO.
For such a hotbed of performance minded boaters I'm surprised I haven't seen mention of it here.
Is there a group of people that will be attending? If so, reply. Looks to be quite of few boats going from the other two forums.

Buck I hope you know that this is a West Coast forum, what are you thinking...
Actually, I have tried to do this a couple of times. Several things have stood in my way..
1. My boat would sink outside the no wake zone.
2. My engine is broken.
3. My work schedule is f**ked up.
Hope to do it one day.
burbanite,
Sounds like you've got a lot standing in your way. LOL That one about sinking outside the No Wake zone it a whopper. It can get hairy there.
Yeah, I know it's pretty much left coasters in here. Been saying that for a long time now. I've come to realize if you don't live West of the Rockies you're opinion or posts don't matter much in here. Oh well? wink I'm married and used to that.
It would be nice to meet up with some people from the board at the Shootout.
We'll probably do the usual Big Dick's run on Friday afternoon and shoot the minnow. Friday night is usually at the Horny Toad. Saturday will be well spent at the infamous Party Cove. Saturday night is usually dinner at one of the many on water restaurants. (do they have those at Havasu? LOL) Saturday night at Shooters to see all the race hardware and chrome. What a site. Sunday watch the Shootout. Some will spend another day at Party Cove again. (for good reasons)

Well said ONAROLL. I've never really thought of it that way. I do see people posting on hear bitching about stuff getting stolen and vandalized quite frequently. It's something I've never worried about. Just don't have to deal with it. Not to mention, I think there's a small difference in the cost of living too.Can't remember ever seeing anyone gang related at the lake either. Never had anyone murdered at any of the lakes I go to. (I would guess we frequent the same lakes from the looks of it) Never had anything said to me about my boat being too loud. Never had to worry about my vehicles passing smog tests. I can go offroad anywhere I want to without having permits or getting ticketed. Must suck to have so much regulation to live under. I doubt anyone that could sit behind a computer screen and say something like that would have enough balls to come out and say it to some of the good ol boys anyway. What do you think ONAROLL? Maybe he should spend an evening in Kenwood, OK with some of our native bretheren. LOL
Anyway, let's get back on subject. Anyone else going to the Shootout?

We better stay in the hills. dorC is probably the reason for all the recent posts in the sandbar with similar subjects lately.
lol.....I know Kenwood, Im sure we have to travel the same lakes, I know Info's boat, what kind and color have you got, I'll look for it and spring for beers..........
Laughing pretty good....My boat sits on the water 365/24/7. I've had one problem in all the years we've been there. SOme took our towels off the line in the slip. We hunted them down and found them. Once they left and gave us our towels back, we realized we got more towels than they took. Hmmmm, wonder who's towels they gave us....
We'll be at the Shootout. Probably will hit BigDick's Friday as well.
