CRC was first, 36 MTI second, Predator third and Jelly belly 4th.
There should be some really good Video of this as I had a small rear facing camera and there is a helo following pretty close to us with CRC out front. I should get is email site today and I will post it then.
It was great run.
PS we were just there to run the boat, I seldom ever get cards at any run.

That is great that Albert made it out. Bet he wishes the Titans would not have tagged him so he could have signed with the Cardinals instead. :cool-smiley-026:

That 36' looks just as cool on the water.

We may have started slightly before the flag dropped, but we didn't start first. Boats were getting very,very close over where we were, if fact I thought we were going to trade paint with Bullock's skater several times. Bruce, as well as several others on our right hit the throttles FIRST and we started with them, I am not sure where you were in the lineup.
It will be good to have the video, hopefully it will show everything from the start to the first card stop and alot excuses will go away.

As I said ealier, we just followed the other boats lead, partially to keep from getting washed down from the skater next to us. If they want to ban people that is fine, but they will have to ban alot of them that started before us.:D

Gary,
This is the first that I heard of anyone jumping the pace boats. I DQ'd one boat for drinking and another for driving on the wrong side of the lake.

I'm interested in seeing the video too.

Trust me -you will have one of the first copies.Talk to the pace boat crew.They were discusted at the chain of events.I waited till they thru the flag down. I could have left but chose not to till the flag dropped.When it did drop,the mti boats were a quarter mile down the lake.What is the point of allowing boats into the poker run when they consistently run wot to the first card stop-dont pick up cards, then go back to the bar and clain bragging rights.They dont even go to the second card stop.Full blown race boats belong on the race course not at a poker run.Call Bruce Bullock and here his side of what he saw.

So M T I beat Skater Nation?

agree

kgshooty 04-28-2008 08:34 PM

I would of hoped after all the unfortunate accidents on past poker runs that the word race would not even be in the same language as poker run, especially if these guys are not even picking up cards and participating in the event, the video's I've seen showed too many boats way to close to each other any way, seems a few guys will ultimately bring an end to these great events, who cares at those speeds if your boat goes 160 or 170mph, there is always another guy who can beat you, hope this ends before another life is lost. we boaters are cutting our own throats on our boating rights.

The guy who just dropped 500K on a toy, thats who cares if it goes 160 or 170. Again, can you just please save it for another thread? This one is about the fun the participants had. Here, lets start with a look back at a good pic from last year. See, Tank serving drinks from his boat.......... lol

Oh damn - and I had just popped a huge bag of popcorn for this....:food-smiley-007:

But pics and stories would be nice.

DollaBill 04-28-2008 09:22 PM

It was merely a suggestion. They can do whatever they want. I'm in no way associated with OSO and will not/cannot do anything with threads.
