I warmed up with the cooler for a Bunny Hop stunt.

Don't know how to post pics yet but I still do have my 69 camaro SS convertable, my dad and I rebuilt it when I was 14yrs old, 14yrs ago, might consider trading or selling for a new boat since I am now boatless..

My uncle made the mistake of letting me drive his old Penn Yan on the St Lawrence. Top speed : maybe 35. Didn't matter. I was hooked after that.

Re: What did you do before you got a boat?
After riding several Hutch trick stars to their untimely half pipe death in my teens ,Street racing started with a new bought 89 IROC with ported heads and a 150 shot , then moved up to a 92 Mustang with a mild 347 that ran 7.40's in the 1/8 still fuel injected , fast forward to 1998 when I built a 93 lx with a Pro Charged 342 that ran 5.30's at 133 mph , then along came divorce , bye bye Mustang .. Last year , while waiting on my 55 Chevy to get back from the chassis shop I got bored and bought a 21 Scarab , fell in love with the boat thing , kept the Scarab 8 months and bought a Fountain 32 Fever with 502 mags . Now finally finishing up a 1400 hp 55' to irritate the local officers.... Oh yeah forgot to mention numerous zx 11's and a GSXR 1000 with a turbo thrown in for good measure ...
