anyone know where this pic was taken

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.

OMG dude, isn't your buffer full.....lol..........I figured you would know..... Tanks for the info.. :D ...if you ever get another boat ? name it ( Total Recall )

i do obtain a whole lot of useles boating information but I think I was actually there when that pic was taken. Best time of my boating life was the early / mid 2000’s with the scope crew. I think if you ask anyone that was there then, they’d agree. It was just one of those perfect times. A lot of fun.

I had a talk with the Illustrious one the other day, he told me alot about the boat as far as trim and attitude, and some good stories that only he can tell....good guy for sure. O ya, and he said its fast...really fast.

We’re all the f2s twin steps were there any non cabin straight bottoms made if so what were the speeds of those boats with 600ish for power ?

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.

That’s a sweet boat !!! I have a straight bottom I removed the entire cabin and did a race lay up in it new fuel tanks and so on lol bait went 76 with 575s and Konrads. It had wet stringers and full Cabin just curios we’re it will run after all that weight gone. Your boat looks awsome !!!

How much weight did you drop?

Bobby, wasn’t that the old Havoline race boat that Phil re did. Don’t forget there was the cloud boat that was a single step. Then there was the single step that was sponsered by Marin... that one you see in the timeline in the cig Smokin book. 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....
