Cool.

ACTIVESHACK 12-20-2007 11:20 AM

That's great news :cool: I've been thinking about taking the course myself next spring sometime. It would be nice to get 4 of us in the AT Cult to do it together. Anyone interested ?

beertruck 12-20-2007 12:06 PM

I took the course with Tres in my Nordic, and it was some of the best performance money spent on my boat. Not only did I learn how to safely handle, and operate my boat, but with a few sugestions on set up, and tweaaking, I picked up another couple MPH out of it.
Tres is a great guy, and Ative Thunder will be very happy with thier arrangement with him.

Might as well. It's been so long since I last drove it, by next spring I'll have forgotten how. :eek:

R Addiction 12-20-2007 01:02 PM

Nice move AT. :cool:

Sydwayz 12-20-2007 01:20 PM

Now, do Brad and Tres offer a mini-bike/motorized bicycle/scooter safety and instruction course?

I know of a few in the AT family that could sure use some guidance. :D

Since its been about 35 years since I drove one a little refresher course might be needed. :o

Around the first of April would be good. I could combine it with the trip down to pick up the boat. I think it's $2500 a head but don't quote me on that.

ciaoderhead 12-20-2007 03:45 PM

Way to go A/T. The course is excellent and highly recommended. Tres does a great job!:cool:

ActiveThunder 12-20-2007 06:28 PM

Brad is actually right here in south Florida. And I am sure Tres will come down. We just need an agenda for the weekend.

We've had had ThunderRuns but perhaps 'School of Thunder' should happen! Maybe an early spring-fling. End of March or begining of April?

Alright, 'School of Thunder' isn't quite it......

Help me out here.....

Who ever comes up with the best name for the weekend, which will become an annual event, like 'ThunderRun', for all of our new and present owners get's a free pass to 'School of Thunder' on us. Plus, of course, I tote bag full of ThunderWear!

I see another tradition.

I like T.I.T.S. but she doesn't......

docmanrich37 12-21-2007 05:58 AM

Has done the school with Tres up here at my lake and was worth the $$$ in every sense.Would recomment it to anyone experianced or not.If I'm right Tres was very impressed with the A/T's single step when he drove my boat at speeds I was not comfortable and turning to do a 180 degree turn.i'm still amazed at he's skills and talent.BTW still pulling vinyl out of my arse. Tres is a Cig guy but you can't hold that against him.lol If you are thinking about attending he class that is a very smart move and if your not thats just plain well as Forest says stupid is as stupid does.

Take some of the local guys with you. I know some that need it.
I've boated since I was 12, and learned more in that class than in all the years boating.
Way to go AT - very classy!

Sydwayz 12-21-2007 01:17 PM

I believe regardless of the 'official' name; its still going to be referred to as TITS no matter what.

Tres - I am very interested. Please keep me posted on interest. If we can work out a group rate, I feel confident that we could get quite a few from the Richmond area.....
