Who else is in Jersey close to where TD runs? There has to be someone up there we all trust, (did I say that about Jersey?:D), to run with TD and let us know.

I live in Beachwood...about 10 minutes north of Trixies where he launches. Have been boating there my whole life and have never seen this boat. I was also in the Poker Run Friday and didnt see it

This is just too rich to let it pass by.
Half of me say's "Dude, put the bong down"
And the other half of me is actually pulling for him to do it.
But I honestly don't think it'll happen.

Yes, I'll be there Wed if you are running. But, again, please lets make an event out of this. You didn't want to do this quietly so lets do it in style big boy

Ok this date has to be set on neutral ground (PLEASE LEAVE TYPHOON, FRANK CIVITANO out of this.} I will supply a Garmin Handheld GPS and thats it! maybe some beer and drinks for my passengers, if he wants to make a pass. I would say Sunday by Bayville I will bring my boat as a view boat. But for liability reasons Typhoon and myself has knothing to do with this..
I myself raced APBA Dragboat 1972-1975 Stevens 21 1200 Blown Hemi @125mph. Raced APBA 30 Cigarette called the Little Cigarette. Sticked more 100+mph boats and have been up to 193MPH on Jet Set
Just had the pleasure of driving Speed Racer with Chuck on the throttles at 150 and we had more to go.
Set the time Sunday I will meet you with my boat, hand you the GPS take a picture at Zero and then take a picture when you come back. I am at the stage in my life were driving anything smaller then 35ft at 100 MPH I am to old for "Hey No Comments From My Buddies" If this works I will see you Sunday.

DollaBill 06-23-2008 07:57 PM

Sunday is perfect.
