If you want to prove what a great racer/driver/throttleman you are, put yourself out in the competition of offshore powerboat racing. It will never be the same as it was in the early 80's, and that's too bad...I'm sure we'll always have to deal with posers...




calm down will ya......:evilb::evilb:

guy is just asking about decals.... dont take yourselves so serious will ya.... the paint job on a rig is art and represents what the owner likes.. thats it.... dont make me smack yas around....:cool-smiley-011:

Just looking to break up the all white -geeeeeeez

some of you guys are testy, you need a winter hoby

if anything it should be a complment to the racers, sorry i asked, but thanks to all that helped

Chris Sunkin 04-02-2008 08:13 AM

I'd rather see US-1 on a boat than the number "69".

Ike 04-02-2008 08:23 AM

You guys are Unbelievable!!!:chill-pill:

You know what's worse than putting US 1 on a pleasure boat?

Painting it like the banner apache and then making it a bow rider! Now that should make some blood boil!!!!!

Well. officially, there goes the thread, sorry Randy.

My question is, is there actually a way to earn the US-1 anymore? 19 different organizations running races, several different world championships, I mean, really, is it possible to earn that number anymore?

And Randy there is another down side to that, people do think they are former race boats when you go to sell them. I got asked that a lot on Red Cloud.

What I would do if I were you is put a real nice flowing bow flag on the front, similar to chads old speed racer and then have someone cut the Cigarette script in blue over chrome for the side like you are seeing on some of the newer boats.
