Really looking forward to it! Last year we had to leave as soon as we got back to the ramp but trying to make sure we don't have any plans this year! I think we will have my Scarab and dads Formula and a few people with each of us.

I will not be able to make the run because i will be out of town for a wedding.

I broke a Rocker Arm and the keepers came off the spring. I have a new rocker arm but i am in no hurry to put it back together because i have a busy month ahead of me. I would say my boating is done for the year.

How is your boat coming together?

If the keeper came off then I would guess the head needs to come off to check things out. Minimal one bent valve. sorry.

Mine is in progress, i hope its back together by the fun run. If not I will ride with bobkats, ohhh wait he prolly wont show up considering there will be a sale at some wallmart somewhere.
