TomCat: I'll take you up on that at the next APBA event. Trust me. Will you throw in a ride in that truck of yours?

Tomcat, how many can you take out on a ride at once? I have a couple buddies that would be interested.

200 in a VW...nothing like 200 on a bike but 93 on the water was still the scariest sensation of speed.

PS, Tomcat, your PM box is full.

TomCat, I am in Holland and will pay you $100.00 to take a ride from Holland to Grand Haven, down the channel to the coal stack and back. If that is too low, tell me and I can sharpen my pencil. I would pay more to ride during the Smoke on the Water Poker Run......lots more On the first ride you only need to hit 100 for 5 seconds or so. The rest of the ride can be at 60 so I can prolong the high. PS. I am serious

Ooops, suddenly it doesn't sound like such a great idea. But I'll definitely remind you about the ride. And I'll make my donation to the cause.

I don't see how anybody could not notice the trucks. They surely impressed me.

Phillip,good to hear from you, don't exaggerate it's really about 2700 hp. Can't wait to see you and Kim at Skaterfest. But remember that it's Ania's due date (June 6th) for the new baby.

Mr Demeanor
Read you post and thought that I would make an offer to your wants..I have a 30 ft eliminator, understand now its not in the hight dollar class like Tomcat or 36 s[rectra, but for a poor mans boat it sure will get well into the triple numbers.I am not planning to splash until mid May and you are welcome to having your dream on water fulfilled,plus Im in the Chicago area. all I ask is a Thanks and maybe a drink afterwards!! Make your donations to who ever you want.
Keep in touch!!

Mr. Demeanor, I"ll take you flying any time you're in the west MI area. It's not like being in an FA-18 but it's still a hoot. If you're looking for a rush and you've got a few bucks to spend you should check out this place for an intro flight in a Mustang. My wife and I have both flown with these folks. www.stallion51.com You won't be disappointed, I guarantee it.
