Potomac River Radar Run
 

Talked with some folks that said that the run was tenitively set for Oct. 9 at Fairview Beach. Anyone know for sure?

ran into frankie at tims over the weekend and thats what he said

let the trash talkin begin :food-smiley-007:

Id love to see talkin trash again.

The radar run is the 9th of october. All are welcome. bring out the big guns:evilb:

Can the runs start earlier ?, 08:00 just seems so late in the morning

No one is ever on time anyway. Is it really supposed to start at 8? I cant remember from last year but 8 seems early.

Good luck w that.

WHO'S GOING! WEATHER IS LOOKING GOOD.
AT 80 DEGREES MAY HAVE EXTRA BOAT TRAFFIC:eek:

Racers are supposed to be @ Tim's by 08:00, get signed in, breakfeast etc... first boat runs @ 09:30

can someone post an address for GPS, what safety equipment is needed, how far from ramp to coarse for fueling?

5411 Pavilion Drive, King George, VA 22485

Fairview beach has a ramp in the community however anything over 30' may be an issue. I normally have a buddy drop me in and pick me up since they really don't have a pier.

They do not have much of a dock but I put my 42 in without a problem

I wont be there at 8, but close to 9 and plan on running

I think this guy will be there :lolhit:

What kind of speeds in the twin engine vbottom class?

Randy was expected to be the fastest again but had a mechanical problem and didnt run. Todd w a 42 fountain ex ran 99.9 which was good enough for first place. I think the eliminator w big power ran in the high 80s (not sure) took second.

The skaters pass @ 175 mph looked easy

Love the sounds like an airplane remark. :drink:

Did anyone take pictures? I thought there was a guy on the radar boat with a camera.

my buddy got some good video footage , just have to make some time to post it

it has to be better than what I got:grinser010:

took this one with my phone http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFQcCXYSLoM

and this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8sUtbFTDxo

Awsome. That says a lot about that boat when you can video your gps and tach while driving and throttling at 114mph.

all right, I forgot. what is the info on that Skater? Did anyone get a good pic of it?

Filmed with a cell phone by the way

That skater is a 388 , 1550 sterlings. I think it will break 190 easy. I got a real good look at it at the JOTJ run. Cleanest boat I've ever seen in person.

Yep...real stable at speed. You must have did alot of work to that truck to get it to tow that fast.:evilb::drink::evilb:

This from the radar run?

Is it the same one mentioned in Powerboat, Skater Nation United, owned by a guy named Fred Nielson from Ilinois?

No pax river poker run. Just learned how to upload videos from cell phone , got bored at the poker table and put some stuff on youtube.

He lives on the chesapeake up north somewhere I was told.

Took the motors out of the boat and double stacked em in the truck. First ever twin 502 F 250.

The guy's name is Ed Trainor, out of Anchor Marine (either he or his family owns I think) in Northeast Md
