Bob Oliver, and Firewater rides again
 

The famous 47 Apache Firewater is ready Looking forward to the season opener with OPA. Bob tried to convince me last year he was taking it easy this year and only going to run with the Boyz in the North East. Well....I get an Email yesterday, "Hey Smitty, I hear APBA and SBI are running together in Sarasota, We need to rock that Joint." So hear we go the weekend after The Brick Race we are packing for Sarasota, Oliver style, Tents, music, partys. etc. Spoke to a few of the Boyz already got a bunch that want to go. Anybody in?.............. 47 Apache triple blower motors, triple#6 drives, but its only a P boat. Ha Ha Smitty

Don't forget that his wife Karen will be in the boat as navigator.

Looking forward to a great season of OPA racing. I know of two other triple 45's that should come out to play with Bob.

Oh $hit Smitty, we might as well just sell our businesses and stay on the road. Yeah Bob!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This will be a battle of the brides............If Karan is in Firewater than MAMMA Wazzup will be in the boat..........if I can get all that hair in a helmet

Welcome Back Bob,
It was not fair the way you left. Many of us did not know how to buy our own cocktails. It will be great to see you. Lee and I have noticed that the turns now seem so empty. SQ

Here's an email from me and Firewater Karen a few weeks back.
=========================
Hi Karen,

So are you going to drive? Throttle? Scream? Which boat? The 41 or 47?

Oh this should be fun, just make sure you have an onboard camera is hooked into the intercom. I gotta hear you talk to hubby during the race.

(Karen) Oh honey, could you slow down a bit, I think I chipped a nail! (Bob) Shut up and hold on.

Can't wait for this one.!

Ron
======================
Dear Ron,

I hope you like size 8 shoes because I'm going to insert them somewhere dark and uninviting in your body!!!!!The 47. I don't give a crap about my nails, it's my neck that gets killed because I had 3 herniated discs smashing into the tire wall at Arnold's Go Karts a few years back. I was ahead of Bob and he couldn't stand it (the extra weight was not to his advantage). He was relentless and I went out of control.
No onboard radio because I curse too much.
I'll be the navigator, smartass.

Love,
Karen

Ya gotta love fiesty women. Better get Mama's nails done after the race.
