well for the first event, it wasnt to bad. Been alot better for all the people on land if we didnt get 2 inches of rain the night before..kinda turned it into a mud bath. Needed more boats to run forsure if they are going to make it a annual event. We have already started thinking of people to round up for next year. We ran the allison in the under 300 horse class, and we hit 89, but radar is kinda messed up the gps said 94...oh well. If the baja didnt have a blowin gimbal and bellhousing I would have ran this year. Was really impressed with the mti that went 171 in that short of a course, it might be a runner if it gets some more course to run on. But when the awards came around, my buddy went up there to get a trophy or whatever he was getting the guy said that everyone is getting a prize, so he asked so who really won the class the guy said well we really dont know, we have no way to figure it out...ummmm ok??? But anyway..all in all it was a good event..kinda boring when there was no boats running for like 2 hours, and then the event was just over?? So next year, we need some more boats, to make it a really good event, I see no reason why some of the lake of the ozarks shootout boats couldnt come run it..if that mti went 171, that was faster then over half the boats at the ozarks..and the river was nice and flat all day..
