Smitty and Sticks, first time we've been apart and it sucked not having you there as you know by me calling you from the STARTING LINE! Don't worry, we're not going anywhere without you and Sticks again. Hope we did The Jersey Boyz PROUD!!!!!!!!!! Bertel, I think I gotta let Kurt go on this one, the HOSES didn't blow but I have no idea what happened.SOOOOOOOO CLOSE, one lap to go..............that BLOWS! Thanks to everyone for all the good wishes, we had a GREAT TIME, except we were MISSING the rest of OUR FAMILY. See you all in POINT Friday. Augie

peconic alway's good hearing from you. thanks for being on top of you're game.it maybe wishful thinking to say two more lap's and it was ours. team Winnebago did a great job. there R/D paid big dividends. bottom line both guys did a great job hats off to Gino and mark.thanks to those two were going back to the drawing board and that makes it fun.

wazz up racing we missed you all . don't ever do that again.PS if I was thinking about racing my 45 mph boat would it be ready for point this week end.

Hollywood, Mad Dog.....Thanks for a great weekend and allowing me to use the shower Saturday night so we could get on the road. Augie

GODFATHER great time you are a classic. hope all is well. I did't want to say anything about the clorax in the shower water. when you left and I saw the blond stripe I did,t laugh I think it was randy but I'm not sure.

Hi Guy's,

Bruce and Augie, sorry to hear you guy's broke again!!
:(
Smitty, we missed you coming up to RI for John's poker run, you missed a great time!
The new 50+ ft Outerlimits "Animal House" was amongst a great bunch of boats, unfortunetly he broke on the third leg of the run.
Bobby's boat ran great with the new drive you built him and I was able to solve the skip I had.
I did a leak test and discovered two burnt intake valves, thats what I get for trying to run a street carb on a marine engine!! With all the playing we did with it we never got the mixture right!
After talking to Holley & having them tell me I would never get it right because the metering blocks, air bleeds ect are different, I stepped up to the "right" carb and had my machine shop set me up with the right jets based on his experience with the same engine combination I have. We nailed it this time!
He managed to get the heads done and I was able to get it all back together along with a brand new 800 cfm marine Holley #9022 for the Saturday run. The boat ran real strong all day:cool: .
John, Bobby & myself are looking forward to Point Plesant race this week.
Those guy's are coming down Wednesday & I'll be there for breakfast & coffee Thursday AM.
Looking forward to seeing everyone.

Hey Tom!!!! at least our fuel pump worked this time

Good thing!!!!
Boy, would I have been in trouble after the campaign I made with you about using the Mallory pump.
:D

Hey Tom, everything is fine with the boat...................It was the ignition modular that blew and cut the engine down!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Augie,

What are you running for ignitions??
