Shane 02-14-2003 12:44 PM

Marty,

Ron P 02-14-2003 12:50 PM

Now that sounds like a good plan.

Oh Mikey!!!!!!!

outer42 02-14-2003 04:15 PM

Hauling Trash 02-14-2003 08:56 PM

ps Shane - wait and see

mmwalters 02-14-2003 10:17 PM

Ron I remember that sign It was hand written on brown carboard and you were not very happy.Where was that?:drool:

Ron P 02-14-2003 10:33 PM

That was Point Pleasant 1995. First race with the Hubers was Barnegat Bay NJ and we won.

1HYPER1 02-15-2003 12:19 AM

Come on M Walters,
dont you remember it was at Point Pleasant when the boat races there were worth going to and were not just 25 or 30 boats,I think that year there was about 60 boats if I remember correctly.Man thats when the racing was good in the North East.

Ron P 02-15-2003 12:29 AM

Dude, it's comming back!!!!!!!

AugiePensa 02-15-2003 09:10 AM

Marty,Ron P. your both on the dock...I'm riding with Scotty or I'll just have to make you both an offer!!!!!Scotty,Hows the baby????Bill W ,I don't think SBI would have this many problems if REGGIE and Al WOULD sign the checks and pay John...ya can't run a business on bull****,on TV and in magazines you can say ANYTHING because nobody knows if it's the truth or not,they just assume!!!!!!I feel John.... Dana and SBI are going to do fine and I for one are with Bubba.

mmwalters 02-15-2003 10:35 AM

Bill half the time I don't remember where I left my keys! This weather should be good for business other wise it sucks.:crazy:

WATERBOY2 02-15-2003 11:40 AM

Bill, the number of boats participating in the Point Pleasant, NJ race has been on a steady decline, and in 1995 there were only 35 boats!Between 1994 & 1995 rule changes "beached" some 'A' boats and the entire USO 'F' Class.....12 boats strong in 1994!

Smittymarine 02-15-2003 11:45 AM

We are on the way back! If you know where any more of those boats are let me know. We have been in contact with over 65 teams. Not to say that many are going to show for every race, but if we average 35 to 40 this season it is a major step in the right direction. Ed

1HYPER1 02-15-2003 07:25 PM

Hey Smitty,& Mark
I agree with what you guys are saying,I am curious if you guys have had any positive input from any of the APBA regulars that they are going to come and race with the OPA or are they going to only race APBA.I also would love to see some of the old pro stock fleet come out and start to race again instead of leaving there boats just sit in there pole barns,or garages.as well as many of the other outboard powered boats.Hey Mike W that would be perfect for you,you could get out the Motion and kick some serious butt,in fact I will even get in the boat with you and show em how to get it on.PS this snow is good for all of us old guys that own body shops.Hey Mark doesnt Carlton still have one of the canapied 28s.give me a call. :D

mmwalters 02-15-2003 09:56 PM

hyper1
 
Bill I am looking for someone to share expences and not kill me. But you know I sure would like to put some color on my plain white boat, nothing fancy but something attractive. Hint Hint. We will talk. I believe I now have most of the safty gear needed.



Ed Smith do we know the total cost of entering a race? I guess money for SBI and money for OPC. Have you found out any thing about a dunk test? Call me when you get time Hell by the time summer gets here fuel will be $3 a gal. Thanks Michael

1HYPER1 02-15-2003 10:06 PM

Mike,
I have never been one to be bashfull while running a boat,but I also have never put one on its lid and I dont plan on starting to accomplish that at any time in the near future if you know what I mean and I will also help with the expenses,you should know better than that,we also can put some wild and crazy paint on that boat when ever you think your ready,just do not let Chip have any influance on what colors and scheme to use.Did you happen to catch the latest on the weather,another 15 to 20 inches of snow arriving tommorrow,great news,dont you think.

mmwalters 02-15-2003 10:23 PM

Bill I could not even tell chip till after it was done He still has some pictures from the 60s he would like to use for a guide. I am ready when ever you are. I just want something simple you know like me. Snow Snow I don't think the hard stuff will come down for some time yet. [ bill murry]:frog:

Just for everyones info., Marty does not have time for boat rides!! He has to hold my wrenches for me!:D ::p

DPT MOTORSPORTS 02-17-2003 10:04 PM

Vinman,
You better keep a close eye in him then. He might run off and sign autographs or something. I can just see it now, The Extremely Dangerous boat in the pits with Marty signing autographs with his Beray on and Vinman popping up out of the bilge greasy and dirty with the Response of "What the @#%&"!!!!!
Anyone else agree??????
LOL!!!!!!!!!

:D :D :D :D

BODYSHOT1 02-18-2003 08:17 AM

I'm not sure I follow...????

:D

Ron P 02-18-2003 09:41 AM

I agree completely. Vinny, I hear you could set up a bed in the engine room!

Just make sure Marty has ink in his pen.

VinMan 02-18-2003 09:59 AM

I'll just hand Marty a screwdriver and tell him its a pen, he wont know the difference:p :p

Hey Marty, 6' snowdrift in front of my garage doors, its buried!!

Ron P 02-18-2003 10:07 AM

Marty are they picking on you????

DPT MOTORSPORTS 02-18-2003 06:37 PM

Marty,
What exactly don't you follow??? I am ripping on you cause it is winter time and we all have nothing better to do than be on OSO, shoveling snow,etc,etc. Ask and I will explain it more clearly for you. This is all good fun.
DPT
:D :D :D :D

BODYSHOT1 02-18-2003 06:48 PM

Dennis...I know!...just goofin'....:D

DPT MOTORSPORTS 02-18-2003 06:52 PM

Marty did I spell "Beray" right. Any word on if the cruise is still gonna go off this weekend? NYC is gonna dump all this snow in the river. Was wondering if that was gonna hamper the cruise??

BODYSHOT1 02-18-2003 07:20 PM

cruise
 
..as far as I know, the minnow is still setting sail as planned....supposed to rain all day too....

:cool:

oh, and it's "beret" :D

DPT MOTORSPORTS 02-18-2003 07:24 PM

Thanx Marty
If anything changes email me.
DPT

VinMan 02-19-2003 08:10 AM

Now now, everyone stop picking on my partner! He's aquired a vast amount of mechanical knowledge!:confused:

He has shown tremendous engine building ablilities. ( i wrote down in a book, every nut and bolt that he tightened) :D :D

Dennis, by the way, its spelled beret. Marty keeps his pen and autograph paper under it. :p :p

DPT MOTORSPORTS 02-19-2003 11:55 AM

BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
:D :D :D :D

Ron P 02-19-2003 12:09 PM

Vinny, you know your partner all too well. Let's hope he can turn the wheel better than Jason.

You know Marty was in a boy band at one time.

BODYSHOT1 02-19-2003 02:43 PM

Man...you boyz really got me in the HOT SEAT!! ...glad you're my "friends"....;) :D :D

WATERBOY2 02-19-2003 04:47 PM

Ron,
Even though Marty is a celerbrity like Jason, the guy knows how to run a boat....the only question, is will he still hang out with the rest of us after he becomes the P4 World Champion????

Ron P 02-19-2003 05:53 PM

I thought you and Merola were going to kick his ass!!!!!!

Marty gives autographs while Vinny just leaves a greasy smudge. These guys are the ones to watch in 03!!!!!! Better get wrenching Marty.

BRUCE SEROFF 02-19-2003 06:01 PM

So what is with Merola??? I hear a lot of chit talking but the boat is just sitting with no drives.

I've got 10 bucks that says he won't cross the starting line at the first race on June 1st.
