Hay Typhoon Y Do You And The Oss Guys Horas People On This Forum.

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

Because people post miss leading info on here. People post things they will do and then don't stick to there word. I have no tolerance for people that BS and I feel they should be exposed. Talk is cheap if you cant back it up! Are you implying that its OSS teams that are doing all the harassing? You probably shouldn't get in the middle of this if you don't own a race boat and pay the bills for it.

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

"pay the bills for it"!!!! Ohh MD, you are a riot!!!!

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

:D :D thats pretty funny...comin from someone who still owes $$ on his boat and is afraid to get back in it on the race course. :mad:

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

Frankly Bruce the fact that I still owe money on my boat is irrelevent. The structure of my corporation that runs the boat and pays the expenses requires that to maximize my tax benefit I not stroke a big check all at once. Trying to save some money in taxes is honorable and necessary in my book. If owning a boat outright is the litmus test for credibility in this forum I suspect that alot here would be hurting. When have written a check for a super V??? Do you make payments on the boat you are throttling? I suspect I know where you are getting you info..........

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

Hey Brett...all im saying is if your gonna throw stones, expect to get hit back. Personally, I dont think you have the credibility to toss stones at Randy, considering his racing career vs yours. You have your sponsors and so does he. I guarantee that he's footin the bill for more than you need to know. maybe you should just get your boat on the course and show everyone what you got. Talk is cheap. you've had that boat for a while and still haven't been on the course.

I dont plan on writing a check for a super V anytime soon. I cant afford it. And even If i could afford it, I couldnt afford to keep it competitve with all the new technology that makes them faster every year. I do however, Own my race boat and throttle for another team as well.

Maybe you should just lay off Randy and let the people, who are entitled to rip into him do it.

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

Brett,You seem to know Typhoon's finance's better than me. How is that? This is exactly what I meant in my previous post when I said people post misleading info. Someone asked me a question and I answered it. Then you and Mark start in with this. Give me a break! :mad:
MD

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

Bertel told me.

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

Ah, how quickly they forget. See attached invitation letter.

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

Smity from Wazzup will need to give you that info.

Hey Randy, you still coming?

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

Maybe you should tell us who you are. Its not that difficult, is it?

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

Hmm...ok Mark you wanna Play Too. Do You feel left out?
BOO HOO :(

How many offshore races have you raced in? vs. How many boats have you washed? I may only have a 28 foot Pantera. But I can tell you I have over 30 races on it. Some in huge water. It may only be worth a small portion of Bretts Cig. But I have more money into my race boat than you probably make in three years. So, lets not stroke our egos. Theres always gonna be someone who makes (and Spends) more money than the next. But I dont think you or Brett have the right to rip into Randy unless its good clean race smack talk. He may not always be politically correct, and he may piss many of you off. But I think, he earned his credibility on the race course not behind a computer. It doesnt matter if he has a partner in his boat. I can tell you he runs just as hard if not harder than anyone out there and pushes the envelope everytime. Sometimes it pays off and sometimes it doesn't. But he deserves the respect that he repairs the boat himself, and goes right back out and runs just as hard all over again.

Hes not a one crash and your out kinda guy. And I respect him for that.

All you guys are , is talk on the computer. Randy backs himself up on the water. Thats the way it should be.

If you cant back it up...SHUT UP!!!!!

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

What is this the "I am badder than you because I have raced more"?? You guys are a joke. Let me inject some reality here Bruce..... How many races you have won makes absolutely no difference in debating most issues relative to the sport. Maybe in setup and course issues or rule infractions but Randy rarely discusses that. I hardly think that MD needs your protection. We have debated, *****ed, fought, and apologized many times. I have criticized Randy, and I have expressed concern when he got hurt. I have never made a personal attack on him. You have disclosed personal information about my arrangement with Dave, (not Val) in an effort to belittle me and that is bull$hit. I have also said that I have been reluctant to get back on the course for a number of reason, which to you means that I am scared. Well, I have a 4 year old and a wife that is expecting a second child in September. It makes her physically ill when I talk about racing because she knows the risks and I am the sole breadwinner in my family..... this is the same reason Dave isnt racing. Does that make him a ***** too? I assure you that making sure that I dont get hurt or killed is much more important to the people in my life than getting a $15 dollar trophy and the approval from you to debate Randy in this forum.

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

Both Shane and Randy were told about the race prior to the letter being handed out during the same day (Sat - 4/30). Shane was in Marathon and OSS in Pickwick.

Now, did they read it????? That's a whole other question. I know the OSS teams read it very carefully and voted to attend.

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

Uh, and shouldn't we be working today???

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

Brett...perfectly understandable and respectable reasons.

In that case, maybe you should just state the facts and stop bull$hitting everyone that you'll be racing anytime soon.(in a supercat no less) I have not disclosed any financial arrangements you have with anyone, you just did. I merely stated that your boat is not paid for, so you you shouldnt be ripping into Randy. He's invested quite a bit of ching in the past five years. If you say you nevermade a personal attack on Randy, what were you inferring with your recent post toward him?

Your concern for him after the accident is admirable. With all the BS and attacks that go on here, the last any of us wat to see, is for someone to get injured doing what they enjoy. Even if safety precautions were not adhered to.

I know he doesnt need my protection, hes a big boy. Hes also my friend and I know him better than you and my other friend Mark Mattews do. And I can tell you hes not as bad as he may appear on here.

If we all just stuck to good old fashion smack talk, it would be a much better place. But , no matter how hard we try. We continue to derail threads in this forum with personal attacks. (me included)

So, until it stops with everyone there will always be someone else defending their ground.

In closing :D i appeal to the all mighty moderators to require anyone who posts in this forum, to disclose their real names. Its only fair to know who we are ripping into or that is ripping into us.

thanks and have a great day :drink:

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

I gotta go with Brett on this one, a trophy??? Lisa is scared to death, that's why she don't come to the races and to tell you the truth, I'm a little nervous after last years New York Bang Off The Side Of The Condo. That $hit Hurts and STILL hurts every morning, or when it rain, or when it's cold. Brett, do what you have to do for you and your Family.

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

Shane, I did what I could. I handed personally addressed envolopes to Smitty for you and Cory before he left. All he needed to do was hand them out, like I did in Pickwick.

Who really cares at this point anyhow?

I think this horse has been pretty well beaten to death, don't you?

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

True that...its over and done. Shane isnt coming and Cory probably will not either. So lets move on.

with that said, how many of you southern boys will make the trip up here? Its time to show some loyalty toward your northern racing buddies, whom have already made 4 trips down south, and I believe will be in Dania beach next week.

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

We may post under other screen names not to decieve, and we identify ourselves in signing off. Theres only 3 people that post on Randys computer. Me, Willy or Randy. Im sure you can tell who is who by now. Regardless, Willy signs Wil, Randy always signs MD and I generally identify my self

Dont try to twist this around Mark. there are some people, IMO that are doing nothing more than stirring the pot, while remaining anonymous. Thats BS.

Your very creative with your icons. Now apply some of that skill toward making things better around here instead trying to push peoples buttons.

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

I will be in Point supporting OPA :drink:

PS everyone who talks about the $15 trophy thing is full of chit,
I bought a few for my sponsors and from my experience, they cost from $75 on the low end to $250 :eek: on the high end :D

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

Guy's, this started as a way to get ALL the SVL crews together, have fun in Jersey, make some $$$ for the winner and MAYBE stop all the BS Trash talking...WELL IT AIN'T WORKING! You want to come an race in Jersey come, you don't stay home. Nothing more should be said. It doesn't matter who owe's what, who's scared or who's doing who's sister. Race or don't race. Start a new Thread for EVERYTHING else...PLEASE. Now, WHO"S COMING TO RACE IN JERSEY???

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

No....

Im saying ...it was not done with the intent to deceive. Many times Willy signs off the nite before, but doesn't log out of OSO. So, when Randy gets on in the AM, he is still logged on as SVL4 and inadvertantly posts under that screenname. if you go back to those posts, you'll see MD at the end.

thats all

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

Shane .....its been pretty quiet round here in the last couple hours.

I just wanted to say...you covered your tracks rather well by deleting most of your posts in this thread. However, Ron P did state the course milage in his post #46, dated May 10th which was before the first Marathon race. And you also posted that same day, of which you also deleted. So, even if you never got the letter in Marathon, the milage was posted on the board the week prior. And I find it hard to believe that you didnt read it.

Now, I know there is no changing your mind on this matter, but you could have left your posts up.

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

It's a Haul from San Diego, but I'm sure it will be well worth the trip! LaveyCraft will be there supporting OPA. :drink:

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

Now, thats what Im talkin bout!!!!! :drink: :drink:

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

Good man Brian. :D
MD

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

The track record shows they only averaged 30.13 miles per race over the last 6 events. All but one race, they may have only had 1 other boat to race against. (Not much of a chance of getting blocked)
What will they do if several other SVLs show up for Key West and SBI is forced to run a Storm Course? :eek:
Will they leave it on the trailer? :confused:

Enough already!

They aren't coming for obvious reasons and we now have a boat willing to make the trip all the way across the country for a shot at a win in P-5 . They don't seem to be worried about any blocking... :rolleyes: They are real serious and confident racers in my book!

It was once said that a lot has to do with set-up. The one that makes it to the 1st turn 1st wins. If so, then set your boat up for excelleration! I don't think you need to hear that from me but oh well...

Lavey Craft,
Thank you in advance for going all out and supporting this race. It means a lot to a lot of people!

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

Well, enough is enough.
Let's talk about who is coming and not the one who is not.
It will be a great time no matter what! :drink:

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

SSS - Sharkey's Selective Statistics

At least two of the races this year have been shortened because they ran Saturday and Sunday.

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

Mike,
I wasn't being selective. I just took the mileages off the SBI website as they were published.
So they shortened the races and Shane raced anyway? :eek:
Say it isn't so.... :D :D :D
Just kidding.... ;)

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

YOU DA MAN!!!!!!!!

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

Klatuu/Dry hump/MM/Phantom1/Shame/rad454
This idea of blocking is plain stupid.In Nov Shame raced against all the boats that he was supposed to race in Pt.Pleasant and nobody blocked since Shame was in the back.The idea of this 22 miles is bull****,if he does not want to come to race Randy thats another thing.I will pull in to the infield as soon as the race starts just to watch Randy kick Shame's ass.I don't think Shame has a shot in beating any OSS boats.That some smack talk.

Wil

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

Sharkey, not coming for the money. Bringing our F1 boat, probably p5 for the race. We were invited to come and look forward to being there. It looks like I will spend every weekend on the road in August, gotta love racing.

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

Please point out where I mentioned blocking.

Also, as I said before, 3 of your last 6 races included Shane. If my memory serves me, he did alright against the black boat in KW. What has changed since then?

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

Then that makes you a better man yet Brian! :drink: :drink: :drink:
Thanks again for the support!

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

Brucie:
I think you talked him out of it.

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

What I meant was Shame can use another excuse but to use the excuse about not coming because of the miles was bull****.
Phantom,
That was the whole point,for Shame and MD to go at it.You are right,Shame did well against Randy,and if you recall he beat him in short races in KW.
At this point,I could care less if Shame comes or does not.It just sucks when you blame Smitty for not delivering a letter.

Wil

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

Mike,
Klaatu mentioned the blocking part.
As far as Key West, Typhoon had some water issues. If I remember right, they couldn't dump the ballast tank. So yeah I guess he ran pretty good against a boat full of water.... ;) :drink:

Re: SVL Point Pleasant
 

Nice going Bruce! :mad:
Just what were you thinking? :rolleyes: ;) :D :D
