pretty cool home brewed video in general but watch for the 125 mph GLASTRON! Word is it's alive and well up in Canada.
Not sure how long this link will be active so enjoy it while you can ;)
1994 video so check out some of the classics in the back ground too.
BTW, anyone smarter on puters than me?? Can't figure out how to download/save it before it gets vaporized. Normal, right click> save target as doesn't seem to work???

I have always loved that video. I'm a hot rod guy, so when I see something that took a ton of work to make go fast.... I just dig it. All these boats in this thread are proof that with the proper dedication and tools, one can make some bad ass toys.

Proof that you don't need a shiny new cat (regardless of what the $7. magazines say) w/twin blown, chromed gizmo motors and $20K drives to go fast and have fun.
Been wondering lately if anyone realizes or remembers that??

Nothing against the high zoot rigs but seems we are taught we are 2nd class w/o one.

The muscle car scene has turned to the same.

Fawk me that has to be a ride! I love how it's the crappiest looking boat too!

Is it wrong to revive a 2 year old thread when it was about you? I saw at least five of my buddies comment and not one of them told me about this thread.

Hmmm... did Check300 make the LOTO Shootout this year? I notice that he and the NV2P1 class winner both have the same first name.

thanks for bringing it back, i never seen this thread b4. I would like to see a video of the faces if that Glastron were to pull into Loto, same dude long hair and all.:cartman:

TheDon 09-21-2013 01:08 AM

Thats one ROCKIN little boat, congrats on the speed and all the disapointed faces you have passed!

I do not think Check300 went to LOTO, Bill does have a SWEEET and FAST Checkmate though!

X-Driver 09-21-2013 07:12 AM

I hear Bill's new boat is not to shabby, either!

A 21' Checkmate Pulsare w- a stock 300XS was just GPSed at 104 mph. That is hauling the mail in a SOB.

I think we should peer pressure him into bringing the 30 next year. Class winner was 110 this year.
