Thanks for the info, but I never did call your father.....changed my mind about the boat and didn't want to waste his time.

As I said, each boat was set-up differently. Our old boat had 2 tanks (non bladders) that held 70 gallons per side. The MAXX boat has bladders as does the Team Virgin boat. I'm not sure on Speed Racer.



Well, I don't know if there are any downsides other than the cabin, which to us was not a downside :D. Our boat did not have an electric engine hatch. The only one that does is Speed Racer. That boat is definatley the closest to a pleasure boat. It has a full bench seat (as does Maxx) and the port side has all the gauges like a regular T/S does. Maxx has a few on the port side but it does not have the standard gauge set-up. I believe MAXX is still a bare bones cabin (you'd have to check with boomer though). However, one of the previous owners of Speed Racer, (JBK) painted the cabin white and put down some lonseal flooring. Here are the cabins in the 3 boats. First one is the Lip-Ship, 2nd is MAXX (as it was when we looked at it a few years ago) and third is of Speed Racer.

Your red vinyl bulkhead cover is upside down. I made it to go the other way. It should fit a bit tighter then. :)

Ok, thats the way it was installed when I got the boat so I'll check that out,

It’s in front of the yard house in Long Beach California circa 2003ish during one of the SCOPE lunch runs. Jeff Cheng owned your boat at the time. Gary Sanchez owned the cafe in the foreground before he owned one of the other F2 guns later. Nort’s formula (phantom chaos on here) and running with the devil #6 Gun in the background next to your boat built by Ron songrath and yes, the cafe in the very far background is the same in the running pic. Can’t remember who owned it at the time.

Croozin2 on here has the only straight bottom F2 they built. It now has a cover girl cabin but I think it ran high 70’s when it raced?

I have the Team Virgin F2 TG.

I saw that boat on 188th across from the plant next to Bobby Moore’s back in the day. It was actually parked right next to Craig Barry’s little tunnel. Most don’t remember that boat. I am thinking it was repainted as the cloud boat. From what I can tell there were only two single steps. The cloud and Bousels/Rice Hauler....

Yes on the Havoline boat and I’m pretty sure you’re correct on the single steps too.
