Default Fever

Has anyone seen or heard of the old 28 Manta "Fever" race boat? In storage?

I do believe that JC out on Long Island has the boat and someday plans on racing it.

I have the engines for "Fever"in my shop and Joe Sgro,Joe Latona and myself are planning a reunion racing the boat in the OPA schedule.The boat will run 105 with the small blocks.We will try and work around Joe Sgros P1 Europeon race schedule to run the boat.It is the baddest offshore boat i have been a part of!!

Running in 2009? You are right about the baddest! That boat has always been my favorite! I think he should put it up "for sale".

No doubt one of the coolest offshore race boats ever.It was great to see another legendary Long Island race team;EXTRACTOR, return to the circut in 2008...cant wait to see FEVER next season!
