The Boat Run's Real Good Engine Is Strong.
I'm Still Unable To Run Full Throtle Out In The 3 To 4 Ft.ers .im Trying To Get Used To How The Boat Reacts In Difrent Types Of Water .
I Will Be Going Out With Jo Racer To Learn More About Tab's And Drive Positions
I Think He Will Help Me Out A Lot On How To Run Boat Properly In Rough Water .
In Flat Water Balls To The Wall But Any Body Can Do That . Learning The Rough Stuff Is Where It Will Be Exciting .so If I Fell Comfortable In The Next Couple Of Weeks Im Going To Try To Race At Derfeild.
I Only Have About 15 Hours On Boat .so I Do Need A Litle More Practice. I Think If I Can Get A Good 4 To 6 Hours Next Week With Jo That Will Help Bring Up My Ablity To Run In The Rough Stuff .
With The Huricane Rita Passing Threw This Week It Should Be Good Rough Water Practice For Me .
So I Will Keep U Guys Informed As I Improve.
Thank's
Mike

Hey Mike,
Glad to hear you are getting some seat time in your pantera . Drive it like you stole it !!!

I Will Not Be Racing This Year Theres Only 2 Race's Left.i Have Not Ben Able To Run Boat The Last 10 Days I Had Some Surgry And Not Able To Go Beat Myself Up Yet .
I Will Be 100% Ready For The Next Season Of Racing .
I Will Put Plenty Of Time On The Boat Over The Next 5 Months Or So Until The First Race Of 2006 .
I Wish I Could Have Started Racing A While Back It Just Was Not In The Cards For Me .
My Boat Is Brand New I've Only Had Boat For About 1 Month And Still Have Under 20 Hours On It .
So They Say Practice Make Perfectand I Will Have Plenty Of Practice.
Maybe Not Perfect .but It Will A Be Alot Beter Then Rushing Into A Race With Not Enough Experince.
I Will Keep U Updatedon My Progress......

Mike

By The Way The Boat Is A Blast
