JUST NEW TO THIS FORUM AND WAS WONDERING IF THERE ARE ANY HTM OWNERS OTHER THAN MYSELF FROM KANSAS OUT THERE.

I have the one with blue flames. We meet a few times at Clinton lake. Mine has been in the Ozarks the last few summers.

THATS RIGHT . I REMEMBER ALSO SEEING YOU AT PB2 AT LOTO.HOW IS THE BOAT DOING. IF I RECALL YOU HAD JUST PUMPED IT UP TO A 540. MY SELF WE HAD A BAD START TO THE SUMMER. THIRD REBUILD IN 4 YEARS. SUCKED AN INTAKE VALVE 3 WEEKS INTO THE SUMMER AND DIDN'T GET IT BACK UNTIL AFTER LABOR DAY WEEKEND. THIS IS REALLY BEGINING TO SUCK.

NEEDLESS TO SAY WE BUMBED ALOT OF LAKE TIME FROM OUR GOOD FRIENDS LAST SUMMER. HAD ALOT OF FUN, BUT JUST NOT THE SAME AS HAVING YOUR OWN RIDE AT THE LAKE. DIDN'T MAKE IT TO LOTO AT ALLLAST SUMMER. JUST WORKED AT THE MARINA AND GOT REAL TIRED OF PEOPLE SAYING " ANOTHER REBUILD". CHANGED TO A DIFFERENT ENGINE BUILDER. I KNOW DON'T SAY IT. HE HAS A SHOP HERE IN LAWRENCE. ROB WENDLAND, HE USE TO RUN TOP FUEL IN NHRA. HE NOW DOES A CONSULTING SERVICE FOR MANY OF THE NOW BIG TIME TOP FUELERS ON MANAGING AND MAINTAING PERFORMANCE R&D. HE IS GOOD AND FUN TO WORK WITH. DID ALOT OF CHANGES TO THE ENGINE. JUST WAS BREAKING IT IN AT THE LAST OF THE SUMMER. IT'S A STRONG RUNNER. WE WILL SEE. GOING TO THE OVERLAND PARK SHOW TOMORROW AFTERNOON. NEW SHOW TO THE AREA COULD BE INTERESTING. WAS AT SMITHVILLE FOR THE FIREWORKS DIDN'T SEE YOUR BOAT THERE BUT TALKED TO SOME PEOPLE THAT KNEW YOU AND YOUR BOAT.

HAS ANYBODY HAD BAD LUCK WITH THE GLOVEBOXS IN THEIR HTM'S? MINE FLEW OUT LAST YEAR. HIT MY 1ST MATE IN THE STOMACH, HIT THE FLOOR, BROKE THREE OF THE FOUR CORNERS AND BUSTED OFF BOTH HINDGES. TRIED A FAST FIX WITH GLUE, LOOKS LIKE CRAP. GONNA CONTACT HTM TO SEE IF THEY HAVE HAD ANY COMPLAINTS AND ABOUT A NEW ONE. HOPEFULLY A BETTER ONE. 80+GRAND BOAT AND A 10 CENT GLOVEBOX. SCARED TO SEE WHAT A NEW ONE COSTS. PROBABLY HAS A GOV. TYPE PRICE TAG..........PARTYHAWK

$150.00 that is nuts. Need to find who make them and should be half the price.

Partyhawk is your boat up and running again?
