Congrats! Tractor pipes = major badassery!

Kevin & Kristy, congrats on the new boat.

I think some some PSI's, intercoolers, and E85 would go great on her! ;-)

actually I think the boat handles fine. Ray always ran pretty conservative and never beat the boat. I think it's one of the best lookin boats ever and he tried to keep it that way.


Enjoy it man! Hey Kevin did ya get a chance to talk to Wild Bill yet?

If you want all the info on the boat shoot me a PM and I will give you my number so we can talk. Ray and I rigged that thing together. I ran the crap out of that boat on Lake St. Clair with the 496's and ran the crap out of it with the 750's too. There are no issue's with the handling of the boat. It runs great!!! I throttled that thing for one race and Ray thought it was best if I took the wheel over instead LOL!!!! He was very very laid back on the throttles. He was always more into building the boat not racing it. I still remember the Algonac race when I dove to the inside of Louie on the south turn, Ray eyes about popped out of his head!!!

I always do the Boyne Thunder Poker Run with my boss's boat and would love to see the boat again if you will be there.

Call me and I will tell you everything I know. Look forward to hearing from you.

Can't wait to see it tearing up the bay. Can't believe it was right around the corner and I didn't see it in person. Have fun with her! "Getting anxious" has got to be a huge understatement.

I have some shirts for you from when I raced that boat. I found them hanging in the closet this weekend. Text me your address and I will mail them up to you.
