No clue I'm not in the click. I saw some guys with there boats at Waltrips parking lot last night. I ask the guy with the blue American Offshore when & where did it start & he told me he had no idea & basically treated me like I was a piece of sh*t. After I had dinner I stopped again & ran into the guy that has the yellow Eliminator & he filled me in. I ran the first three stops. The blue AO had the crosshairs put on it since last night & I found him. It was fun but the lake is narrow & some of the people don't pay any mind to cutting someone off.

No problem. Wish we could had hooked up Friday or early Saturday morning and gotten more info to you. I know you would have enjoyed the Saturday evening events at Race World. We will get the info out earlier next year for everyone. See you on the water.

I was wondering who was out there in the Outerlimits. Thats a pretty nice looking ride. Lotsa of egos running around, I thought a poker run was supposed to be a social event not a click event.
steve1k99: Not sure what you mean by the comment. This event was a Power boat social event and by no means a click.
I would expect that from a non-perfromance boater but not from a guy that has a 99 Top Gun. This event was set up to bring performance boaters together. No egos involved just some nice hardware. If you could clarify that so I could understand I would appriceate that.
Thanks

Perhaps I was a bit harsh with useing the word "click". I assumed that info would be posted on oso I really did not know about Boatfreaks. There was plenty of info on there though. I guess with just finding out about it through word of mouth & with the way it felt like I was intruding on fri. night I took it that it was a private event & not open to all hotrod boats. If I don't feel like I'm welcome I get a little bit of an aditude. My bad. There were a lot of nice rides the cig is cool dude. Nice run lake is a little narrow to run with the sticks pinned. Wish I would found out earlier.

I can understand that. We thought about posting on OSO . Honestly I was afraid we could not handle the volume. So we decided to just go with our local web sites. We have a fun run coming up on Lake Wylie Aug 11th. We are also tring to but something together on Thursday nights at Exit 36 Billards. Give me a call 704-634-9004
Thanks

I probably can't do thursday nights. That's usaully when I fly out to the races. I might be able to skip Watkins Glen but I'm not sure about L.Wylie. I've never run there & don't really want to go cold turkey & try & run like we did on sat.

We had pace boats on Sat for the people that were not familier with the lake and we will have something like that when we do anything on Lake wylie. The lake is not as big as norman but we still manage to have a good time. See you on the water.
