dave(skater), even peter has asked who "is that "?...
peter at skater has many years of building boats and relies on customers/racers input for future development. from top racers like johny t. to his customers that know next to nothing. all have something to offer. SORTING all that info/bs and turning it into a great product is something he has proven.
peter is very aware of our goals. both short and long term. he has been very open to what our input has been so far. hence the boat is being changed at skater's facility.
i am waiting for a overnight air package: broken shaft, adjustable t53 engine puller we designed, and some BPM tools. i will then be at a laboratory for the shaft. i then have a $hit ton of other work. which should be done by 2am. at that point i will pull an all nighter, drive to skater and spend the rest of the day working on both engines and then pulling both out to do hot ends.
SKATERDAVE...if you know so much??? or anyone else i IMPLORE you to POST something POSITIVE that JBS Racing and or SKATER should be doing? because according to you we have no idea. skater/peter is included in that last statement because why would he be doing ANYTHING for a team like ours; according to you!!?? i assure you it's not the money! it's NOT one of his boats! if it was he would take the boat in, do what he wanted and told us to come back with a check later!!!
i am not that hard to find nor do i HIDE behind a screen name! so to reiterate! IF YOU HAVE GOOD INPUT FOR US? please contact me personally on my cell 734-635-1697 day or night! i don't sleep much and this is my current priority. to those that have; I THANK YOU VERY MUCH! if my private messages fill (which they have) please email me direct. Some have had some great connections and definite valuable information.
as a side note: you know they say: "there is no such thing as bad press!" i guess we'll just have to see how that works out for who?

Skaterdave-why can't you be a man and reveal yourself?stop hiding like a ***** behind your fake screen name.we would all love to meet you in person but I'm guessing you don't have the balls to show your face.

I bet you have met him in person. I've seen Skaterdave at several race sites in the last 5 years working with a couple of the top tier teams. Im pretty sure even if he did post his name, you still wouldnt have any idea who he is even tho he knows how to build a boat, rig a boat, a run a boat. He's telling you what he thinks. He questioning what you are posting. You post stuff on an open forum and that's what happens. You get opinions .....

AB From Windsor....I have noticed that you always have positive, supportive comments for JBS Racing...despite our many setbacks this year....it is fans like you and others that support us during the year that keep us motivated and focused on bringing fun and excitement to offshore racing!! stop by and say "hi" if you ever come out to the races!!!
I had the pleasure of meeting Jeff and Jaimee at the St. Clair River Race this year.
