Good, I want to be there. Guess it won't be next weekend since Axa's running the "other race boat".

You could put two sets of boxes on and still be inside that flat bed of yours.

If we did, we'd need several bottles of that Kentucky corn product to make things happen!!!:D

That's protection from any little half ton gasser guy that can't quite see over the steering wheel.....AXA might want to invest, looks like he's about 4' past the end of that converted pontoon boat trailer he's got.........

AXA,

Give me a call if you make it to Oneida the next couple days. I've got golf league Wed. but would be open for lunch....Waterfront, Boathouse, etc.....

I'll admit that the boxes were a supprise, not what I expected. I was thinking more in terms of blowers, something that would really up the program. I don't recall saying that it's cheating, I agree there are no rules. I will take issue with "by a few", do the math here, you said 88 was best to date, my recall which you saw says 94. Take-aways being as they are, 94 less 88 equals 6 MPH. Sunday, full of fuel, I was @ 89 -90 on the way to the Bay, what was it you said you were running? Be honest here we're all buds. Your speedo might not have been working but that other GPS unit will tell you the same number.

Lets just say sunday was like testing, don't count for chit. You get some hours on those race motors, as my stockers are all broken in. Install whatever else you ordered on line yesterday morning, get it all dialed in and proped out, BBlades has all my data so you can just have him shoot for that numbe. Then I'll give you plenty of time to draw a crowd, make sure the Bow Cam is working well, and you need not worry about the Butt Cam anymore, might just as well send it back for a refund. When all is good we'll have at it. No rules here, do what you gotta do. Just be sure to bring your A game. And if I were you, I'd take my advice and get me some shorties, I would pass on buddy Bobos Imco chit and do the Merc Sportmasters, just call Monte about the weed deal before you place your order. So you know in advance, I'll be lite on fuel, with a couple cans in my chase boat in case I run out.

Thanks for the compliments, it's important to have your shine on :D. You might try the three coats of Collinite, seems to be quite aero-slick stuff.

Axa will be sending out invites whenever he's ready, I've agreed to give him plenty of time to get all pimped up and draw a crowd. I also would put money on the fact that we haven't seen the last of the supprise improvements, would be out of character for our good bud Axa. Maybe they can bring the "Race Boat" and we can have a three way deal, would add some excitement for the race fans.


Game On !!! :evilb:

Was back from the bay by 3 Monday.Was trying to make it home before the rain but that did not work out for me.Love the big tires on the truck till it starts to rain then it just makes a big mess out of the Sonic.:hitfan:

Every time we go up to the bay we just fall in love with that place more and more.Was a little cold but if we kept it under 90 it was not to bad.Had a great time with Axa and his bride Saturday night..Dinner and drinks till they asked us to go home at closing time..Wish you could have made it back Pete...:D

As far as the "butt" cam I bet I looked good if it was working..The fact that I was the only one that was in the Bay for the early season run off they are going to have to give me a head start next time..By the time I made it back to the dock they were looking at spotless eng. compartments and watching videos.You think that you have something clean till you hang out with the A-bay boys..They both look great!! And I have no idea who made it back to the dock first..

I do have some pics of Axa and the "New Sheriff in Town" but we will have to see how they came out when we get back in the boat tonight..
