Someone invite their dad to this thread? Maybe we need to set up a 10 post timeout rule.

I was just thinking the same as I was browsing. Yes I did, and I didn't see any thing but frieghters in the lake (Huron) no formulas no fountains no bayliners no searays. Oh I did see 1 checkmate but he only went out about a mile and turned tail hugging the shoreline and went back toward the river.

Yesterday was great about 1 foot chop. today on the return was a totally different story. Took a nice long shower at Lexington followed by about 50 more short ones coming back, you got to love 4-6s.

Oh and to rub it in a little more. My wife has taken apart more engines than you guys have even thought about (you figure out who you are). Her list includes 2007 Cadilac CTS 3.6L direct inject (DI), BMW 3.0L dual turbo DI, Audi 3.2L DI, 2006 Nissan 4.0L, Honda 1.8L, Ford 3.5L, Hyundai 3.3L, Toyota 3.5L. I could have inclded transmissions as well. And the list goes on, don't make me go back into the archives. OK so she only took out the bolts I told her too, but she did take them apart.

By the way I love my job, take new chit apart and don't have to put it back together again. well most of the time.

I may not have been as fast as you there AXA but I did hit 67 GPS with a stock bravo 1 26P today. you got to love a good tail wind and a typical 6-7mph current. Should have had the labbed prop on dang it.

Like all season? Right?

We did stop in this afternoon on the way home from Sams moms and thought about taking a little rip, John and Theresa said you were off playing with a couple of those sea fleas. So we bs'd for a bit and came home. Did stop in at Sutters in Canadagua today and checked out a few Fountains. Was offered an "investment" opportunity that might be interesting. Also got to give the new 33 Lightning a once over. Cool boat, just need to dump the 496s and get some real motors in it and it could be a super little hot rod.

My thoughts as well 5P. Isn't this nice, agreeing on things and all that. Sort of gives you a warm and fuzzy feeling doesn't it.

Wish Kitty a Belated Happy B'day for Sam and I.

The Shelby may be a Ford but they have done the best job with the new wave retro perf cars. Dealmaker Ford in Odgensburg has a silver and black Roush 427R that we drool over every weekend on the way to the Bay.

Those Roush 427s are sweet there's a few of them around our area. But don't get it confused thinking it has a 427 engine. They beef up the 4.7L (I think it is) and tweek it to 427hp via add on parts. I would think all of you gear heads here could do somthing along the same lines or better for a lot less than the cost of the Roush 427 and probably blow it away on the strip.

Hey you stroke,

You were right in my "backyard" and you didn't even call ....
What's up with that?
We could have taken you guys out for lunch or dinner and showed you some Formulas ........
