Either way you look at it Hot Stepper will be in town for a week stirring up the TIBBC one week or the other


Whatever works! You planning any "Big Events" for this year? We will be there, you might want to check on the rest of the Ball Busters.

I am convinced that your Mom has a hollow leg, possible two.

I just got this one in an email news letter and though all of the sledders on here would enjoy it check this one out. This is a 16mm demo film of the Armstead Snow Motors Company concept snow vehicle. It was filmed in 1924. The concept is applied to a Fordson tractor and a Chevrolet automobile. The original film is part of the collections of the Archives of Michigan.

As for the CNY Boat Show................ Team HBW did a bang up job, boats were sold (placed a sold tag myself), and things are looking good for the season.
We have not been back to the show for years...The last times we went they just had nothing that interested me..Maybe the last time I had a interest was when HBW had a Sonic to look at.That may have been the first time I met you Pete..I remember it well.

I know what you mean. For years we would go to see the new hot rods, now it's a sea of bow riders and cruisers. I did wander around a bit on Sunday afternoon just to see if anyone was showing any performance boats. Only one I saw was a 28 Velocity at the Fast Forward booth, they had done some repair work and a super looking paint job on it and had it displayed. Sign of the times I guess. You almost have to go to Miami to see the perf boats now, most shows have very few on display anymore. Didn't even see any Bajas By Fountain ( ) in the RC Congel space.

There was a black Clownline with "thru the side of the hull exhaust" next to us, guess it was the show "Hot Rod".

Sounds about like the Detroit Boat show, Cheryl and I went last year and the only powerboat on display was a (1) formula, I just check this years exhibitor list and it was the same.

Want to be careful with the pot stirin', might end up on the chit list with the rest of us. Come to think of it I believe there are more of us on the list than off.


Stir away! Didn't someone once say "It's what we do here".
