Mike, Amazing What The Cooler Evenings And Less Humidity Does For Letting The Motors Breathe. I Saw On The Other Thread By The Way That You Go To The Bears Games By Water. My Buddy Is In Burnham And A Bunch Of Us Go To Waldron Deck Before Games To Hang Out And Then Into The Cadillac Club For Some Pregame Fun As Well. We Are In Sec. 209. Maybe We Can Hook Up In The Next Few Weeks. I Split My Tickets With A Buddy So My Next Game Is Not Til Sf In October. Pics Were Awesome Up Above. Wife And I Loved The East Shore At This Time Of Year. We Used To Take A Trip Every October To New Buffalo And Spend The Night During One Of Their Festivals. Great Time. Talk To You At A Game Some Time. Hammer

Beautiful sunset pictures. Thats great about the 74mph. Lets see, lab the props and maybe 5200-5300 rpm & 76mph.

That's kinda on the path of what I was thinking.

Hammer-
You gotta be kidding! We didn't end up boating to the game due to weather concerns, but we were tailgaiting on the Waldron deck and my aunt and uncle's tickets are in section 203 of the Caddilac Club...we just missed ya. Don't know if I'll be scoring any more tix this year...we usually just go once...but I'll let you know if we do.

You guys think labbing the props will get me the rpms? I know I'm not hitting the limiters yet...I think 502s rev out around 5150 or 5200 and I'm only getting 5000 by holding the sticks down for a while...

I think your right about the rev limiter. Before investing in props you need a set of shorties.

Nice sunset pictures. CREPUSCULAR RAYS is what caused the unique sunset we had here on Saturday night. Here's a couple of my favorites.

Mike, those are awesone pics. That's also pretty good speed for an old red boat. Did I mention how good it was looking last Saturday.

Dan, I remember those pics. The last one was my wallpaper on my old computer. I would need to get a slip @ hammond to get shots like that. If I stayed by Chicago late enough to get a pic like that, I would be getting back to the Ditch well after dark. It's scary enough in the daylight.

Mike those pictures are awesome. I would be very happy with that speed also. Talk to ya soon, Keith.

I'll have to agree with Dan about the shorties. You'll notice a big difference.
