Good one, I guess it takes you a mile "throttle up".

The second time IN THE SAME DAY.... I pushed up the 4000 rpms and you were running with me so I slowly knudged the throttles forward. I would have stabbed it but I had a busted coupler if you recall. We ran from just south of the Atlantic Highlands Bridge to the Cove on Sandy Hook. You couldn't catch us so I slowed down again...

I think the Dippel run was funny cause after you got beat up in the bay you took off in the RIVER.

The family must have loved when you told them the bed time stories!

May be to early to tell for sure but so far they're calling for Party Cloudy skies Saturday with a high of 83 and partly cloudy at night 71!

Doesn't look good for Sunday though with T-Storms 60% but I bet we'll get at least a half day before the storms roll in.

Fingers crossed the forecast stays the same!

BTW, who was tied up at the Dock first? Billy, Chuck and Myself.
This is Howard Cosel, here we are the day of the big race. The entire fleet is running 3200rpm or less. There goes Panther pulling ahead of the fleet. He captures the lead, the rest of the fleet still running 3200rpm. No one can touch this Cinderella story, the pink boy as he's called, no matter how much they hold steady at 3200. Victorious again, the fans go wild....

Yea, that pic sure does show a lot

Yup you were first to the dock, no doubt about it. Gaining all that in the no wake zone as everyone idled in. You weren't the first to make the corner in to the bay though.

If you were ahead of me going to the point how could I possibly cut you off? Better talk to Franny about getting some free samples cause I think you're a little delusional

My wife pushes our lawn mower and she is not fast. I think if I sat on it she couldn't break 2 mph. But I'd be willing to have a race. Hey Panther, think your wife would push you on the lawn mower as we race down the street?

Seriously, I could see you running WOT far off on my port side coming up from behind, you darted out in front of my bow just as we were aproaching the channel marker and I had to chop the throttles. It was as if you throttled up sou you could say got there first. It was the same as you did when I slowed down by the hook to see why you got spanked so hard, then you took off in defeat and ran back home to momma!

It would be like a soap box derby but on a mower!

I wonder if my "Crapsman" could hold my weight..
