and why do I think that you and your other feline friends will be lining up with him sometime during this run.. lol

In fairness, I dont think Mike has the horsepower in that thing as when RF was "campaigning" it, correct ?

Have fun, be safe, live to pin them again tomorrow.

39 MTI "Wildcat",
Mike is a friend and we kid each other all the time. The boat has detuned engines now (900's?) and still well north of 100 mph. Just not 171 mph.

Brad told me he won't go over 150 now that he has cut the roof off the MTI. He doesn't want to get sucked out of it

well all in all it was a good run nobody hurt and I believe only one guy took out a prop and skag..... cause like the last 4 years it was rough, some nice 4ft rollers and he hit ground idling out of the harbor

as far as entries I believe the count 20 boats........

Thanks for the update, sorry to hear about the guy hitting bottom. Sounded a little bumpy.
