RACE BOATS
Banana Merc.racing Saves The Day

Thanks Bill Harris,Steve and all the guys from the Merc. Racing truck!!! My lack of last min. checks on my boat cost me the worlds. Of all things my battery went out on us in the 3rd lap and disabled us. The Motor 525 ran great all day.There was some talk on this board about the motor and some passable problems. There were none that I have to report.

Randy:

Glad it was a simple solution to get going. Peconic first you post on OSO that the black beauty delaminates and now the motor has major problems. Give Randy a break - BH

Brian,

Peconic was accurate. I don't think he was bagging on Team Typhoon at all or the manufacturer. We all know they are great guys. Guardian mode has caused problems for them as he stated. Word around the pits were cam sensor problems and oil pressure sensor problems that some had run into.

Their 525 does seem to have issues. We were very glad to see Team Typhoon come out for the second race. We saw the Mercury guys working on their boat to get it ready for Saturday. Unfortunately a cooling problem got the engine so hot, something in the engine compartment caught fire we were told. Apparently Guardian mode didn't catch it??? Randy and Glen can really run the boat. Engine gremlins didn't help them this week.

J
