Boating ADD ? Sometimes the project is more fun than the boat itself!

Boat ran great last weekend at the Daytona PR. Was hitting 130 MPH in 3-5's and made it to the dock a solid 30 minutes before the next boat (46 RR/ 1075's).

Boat is cool but a PITA trailering/ fueling in my opinion. The boat runs on Jet A or a gas/diesel mix in the same tank. Seemed like a science project to get the fuel blend correct. Lots of guys build/ sell boats after they are done. Batman/ Superman/ Spiderman all were sold within a few months of completion.

I was at Gilberts back in April when they were heading down to KW for Stus' run and watched that boat power up at the dock then pull away - nothing short of INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!! Really - the Nor-Tech guys did an amazing job with that rig!

Between that and Jim Lee's Skater - two awesome cats to gawk at that day during lunch!
