You shoulda been out today! Just got back from testing. A little bumpy to say the least. NOAA said 2 to 4s. Wrong again NOAA.

Tow it up to Boynton, a few of the race teams test in the ditch running North from the ramp there, its a nice open spot, and where I do all of my stunt driving, but then again, I only run 60 WOT trimmed to the sky

That's where I normally test. Drop in at the ramp just west of the inlet. Usually I attempt to slow down but end up 'gliding' under the bridge. That nice gentleman with the blue lights on his boat knows me by my first name.

He likes to hang out there, AMF, and Taboo test there also.
Funny Story, my first time out on an offshore was with TimG back in '02 on his 28 pantera tw
in 502, we ran south from Peanut island on the outside, then came in the boynton inlet near full throttle, turned North, and he was waiting for us, we pulled back and he followed us all the way back to Peanut/Palm beach inlet, I was hooked, and had to get a Pantera, problem was all I could afford was an old beater, and spent the next 4 years restoring it while crewing on race teams to fill my need
