Thx Randy.....were you able to max out on the course?

The course is long enough to get to your max speed. Its on the Potomac river plenty of run out area after the radar gun. Course is marked with bouys. The run is in front of Tims at Fairview Beach. Hope you can make it.

Now the question is..........is your boat going to be there?:evilb:

I can bring the boat if the motor is not done and win the 0V class, Just need some more efficient paddles.:lolhit:

Im sure the motor will be done, but I dont think I will be even close to that Velo' speed. I'm not sure what to expect.

77mph / 489ci=.1574mph/ci

.1574mph/ci x 555ci=87.3mph:evilb:

Isn't that how it works:party-smiley-004:
