Magnum 27,Thanks for the comeback.George was running a 502 500 at the start of 2001 and the boat was very slow even in P5.At the Sarasota i told him about somthing i was playing with for Vixen that would give her a extra 10 mph,but i couldnt seem to get the bugs out.In Lauderdale in sept.he was a lot faster and could have run with the P 4 boats easy.I know he blew that eng. in practice in St.Pete and put in a used eng. in the pits just to make the start.

Mag 27,
Do you plan on racing any OPA races next year? No entry fees, rough water and great competition here in P5.

Bob,First let me say that what the Jersey Boyz and John Haggin are doing for offshore has got to be the best thing to ever happen to the sport.Five years ago i would have been the first in line to race.I may do 2 or 3 races with Vixen in 2006,but i have to stay with the smoother water like St Cloud,Frt Myers because its home and Chatt.TN.or somthing else that fitts.

Mel,
Maybe I'll see you at the Ft. Myers race-if there is one. I'll be running a 24 Sunsation.
How about you Magnum 27? Are you going to come and do any NJ OPA races? Your Magnum would probably do well in the rough.

Mag27

Bob, That boat of Magnum is second to none when it comes to rough water.He did a complete lap an a half on Vixen running in 8 footers in 2001 in Lauderdale,and he was in p 5 an we were in 4.I think i got the Freeze Frame film of him around here someplace.I know it was one of the few boats to finish before the coast gaurd shut it down.And i hope theres a Frt.Myers race too.

Mel, Do you guys still have a Vixen-website?? I remeber you had one with lots of pix n some movies... or Iam I thinking about Short C....?!

Thanks,
Mange

We are waiting for the schedule to come out but we will more than likely do a few. When the AMF team was here in Chattanooga they were something else. To say the least they took care of us. I even got a phone call from them while they were in Key West wondering where I was. Since my engine was toast we did not make it but they were still trying to get us to come. Even were going to give us a place to stay. I love those guys. By the way Tommy is one amazing Cook!!
