An old Baja was 4th this year and 2nd last year. Next year things may change............where do you get those flags?

Laz you have a beautiful boat there is no doubt about it and it runs well but as I was coming up to Belle Isle I am sure I saw Todd make a U turn just south of the Island. Good run I have been first at stops a few times in the last 2 years and it does feel good but I know I was not the fastest boat in the run I just held her to the wood and it stayed glued together.

Brian, you have a great running boat, and I believe you built the motors for Ernies boat and I believe he came in a close second, was a great day for a great run, look forward to running with you guys again next year. Good show and I love how our group knows how to run there boats, always a fun time with leopa.

112?

Bottom line. An AT is not faster than a Gldiator with the same power in smooth water. An AT is about the same speed as a 38 and 39 Top Gun with the same power in smooth water. The bottom line is who has the sack to put the sticks down in the rough stuff to get there first.

Gladiator Guy...With all do respect, don't talk would, shoulda, coulda. That is BUSH LEAGUE. Maybe you could have spanked him but you choose NOT to per your statement and your wife lack of desire. Come on here when you have video of you spaking his azz! "Done that" is much better than woulda, shoulda, coulda...

Thanks for the compliment!

It's a well designed, well balanced boat that has a patented hull design and is still in production.

It also has a luxurious and usable cabin in the bow and ahead of the center of gravity to entertain guests.

And it also has the 'added plus' of being able to corner without spitting the occupants out which makes even the most nervous wives happy.

Here's a few pics of the cabin and cockpit if anybody is interested.
