Second...Does the picture matter? Well you claim you have the picture of your last time out "Super Bird" run that put away anything I have to show to date, so just put it up. If you're proud of it show it.

What two instances?

Time to dial it in, yup. How am I supposed to know where the he!! that deal ended up when mine was out and long gone by the time you got wherever it is that you finally got to on that last run?

Never all summer did I push or make issue of where you were at. We had the conversation on the dock as to whether or not we would do the run for all the wannabees, I told you it was your call, that I really did not give a chit. You know exactly what I'm talking about here! Again I made no issue and did not push the deal.

Last... I'm happy with the Biotch. I bought the Fountain because I wanted it. Formula builds a fine boat............ But I will never own one, I do not like the way they feel and handle at speed. I prefer the styling of the Fountain as well, but that's my opinion and I'm entitled since I wrote the check. All things considered, the overall handling aspects of the boat are more important to me than a few cabin features. I bought it to drive it, not try to make it take the place of all those Sea Rays that Mark so generously allowed me to use when I was without a boat.

In conclusion... If you ran a big number................ Good for you! If you want me to believe it then post it! Other wise next year will bring what it brings. You need to remember it was all your Flocker buddys that pushed for the big showdown, not me!!!

Done Deal!!!
Hey Reggie Ragged .....

Where were you when the little Cheetah wanted to give you a lesson.
Where were you when we did a "final run" ..... you were no where to be found. Samantha made it out with the, as you say Flockers and quite enjoyed running in the boats of choice.
At least she didn't have to wait for those wannabee Fountain guys that hide in the boat house.
All I know .... what isn't much .... is there is a picture that has been authenticated and available for viewing ..... for your future testing and tuning pleasure.

I can hardly wait until my avatar is ready for viewing I going to make some heads and Fountains spin .....

LOL LOL LOL ......

Jeff

How fitting is this, this post was number 353 for me .....

Now wait just a minute here Petie,,,,,,,,,,,

Wannabees????? I'm not a "wannabee". I personally am not into trying to have the fastest boat. I couldn't care less who's faster than me - even amongst boats in my slow class.

And, the "Flockers" only fed on what was already being dished out by you two.

I'm not starting anything here but this petty "I'm faster stuff" is between you two. We only heap on to get you two going even more.

I've said it before, I don't care (and really, nether does anyone else care) who's boat is faster. You both have truly nice boats that anyone would be proud to own. What I'd really like to see is you two coming together, sharing information and knowledge in an effort to make both boats faster. You could have a lot more fun going out running hard then coming back to the dock with a little back slapping saying "that was cool, what should we work on now". Wouldn't that be a fun way to spend your boating time????

So, why don't you guys do a little information sharing and get over this sophomoric and useless bickering?!

K, I'm going back into sled-mode now - see ya.

Admit it…On a public Forum so everyone can see the real truth...

My Formula is FASTER than YOUR Fountain and I'll post the picture with the real recall number...otherwise...NO.

Dave
These two. Don't you read or is it selective...like your hearing?

And what does this have to do with the showdown? Nothing!

Stop insulting my "buddies" intelligence and answer the call…What about those two times out?

Bring it...the picture will surface soon!

Dave (Still faster than the Fountain)

Do not think it is the Wayno that we know..

All I have to say is we have not even seen one snow flake and the who's faster thing is getting pretty hot..Any one want to give me a kick back for the pic I seen one Sunday morning with Daves name on it??

Its going to be a looong winter....You guys have fun with them snow sled things and be careful...I have been told more than one time if you are going to spend money on sleds I will be sleeping with them..

How fitting is this, this post was number 353 for me .....



Why would I even want to get into the Cheetah deal, I've been in one with Merola at 99 and it only had the 525s. Did Super Bird guy have at him?

Samantha really enjoys spending time with Bird and Julie, why wouldn't she go out with them. But do me one favor, the next time you see her have a conversation with her and get her opinion of the Formula 353. And keep in mind that this girl spent many years in the Velocity.

All I know is...


You keep posting away Twins, you're not far from number 382.
