Sharkey, any chance of you unlocking the locked albums for me? Pretty please?

I am sorry, but those albums are to give access to the authorities at this time while the investigation is pending.

Wow check out race two. Turn one Muscle/Wazzup sick pics

I haven't had a chance to look that close at my pics yet, but I might ! ;)

BTW, how many brothers does Louie have ? :confused:

How about ON THE CHIP ? :eek:

Thanks Smitty !

New On The Chip looks good!!! What happened to old one?

Damn...Look at Wazzup and Muscle boat...Did Wazzup hit muscle or flip over? Who won P2 class?

Chris

See my site in Race 2, the whole sequence is there from them entering the turn and on the way out... :drink:

Holy cow!

Hope both muscle and wazzup boats didnt end up having bad scratches on their sides! Seems like Wazzup nearly spun out.

Chris

I saw Lightning Jacks get pushed into the ever so close spectator boats. :eek:.....Glad he missed everyone. Photos 8 9 10.:eek:

Not nearly, they did. And with a little Muscle, they spun back around the other way 180 degrees !:eek:

Broke the beak on Wazzup with some unseen inside damage, and Muscle delaminated down the side. I have many more pics still to load.

A little behind with this race at the moment...

awesome shots Tim..nice job!

great shots Tim! It was like bumper boats out there :eek:

anybody seen this clip yet? we were right behind Wazzup and Lightning Jacks and i think they came together in the turn sending LJ into the spectator fleet. Its right about where Ed and I went through with TKO just a few laps early when Dean had some mutidirectional issues as well:D. Man that was a tough turn with all the boats in so tight.
