I'd like to know dates for either or both. Poker runs doesn't show a date but says September. CPBA doesn't show any date at all for Lake Norman in 2008.

What gives?

The reason I havent done the runs on lake norman, is because of the lake of confidence in there being a safe run. I do a possible ten runs a year through out the country and very well respect the poker run circut. I do believe Poker Runs America runs one of the safest and nicest poker runs, and I am more than happy to join with them and attend the run in September.
My information was not wrong, Who do think took your money . My wife did. You were making such a scene I had to be called . Something else you did not know the only reason you got in was because I said it was fine. Oh I am a guest of Skater Steve's. I know what you are and who you are. Its about time somebody lets you know. I am very sick of you and all your money that you think you have. You talked to Bill H from National Marine lately ? You are a very arrogant person and quiet frankly people are sick of it!!!!!!!!

I want to call PRA now and invite them to my lake so that I can also be the most hated performance boater in my community.....just like Kenny, good job buddy....

Not only have you alienated yourself from the locals you will most certainly will see time and time again on the lake....you are now going to be responsible for ruining performance boating on Lake Norman....

"Here is where you get into a MAJOR issue with a big run like that on Lake Norman. Its not that big a lake. (how far can you run WOT without backing off?) You don't own the water. You guys (CPBA) have done it the right way, talking to the right people, and not pissing off the wrong people. If PRA brings in a major run with 150 mph+ Cats/"V"'s, dry pipes etc the people that live on LN are gonna have a chit fit. How many regular boats are there out on a weekend? a lot. The big guys are gonna wanta run, and thats not going to go over well with the people with 50' Rays and Pontoons, who have the power to kick "go fasts" off Norman. So after they leave, the powers that be are only going to remember that it was "that damn loud Cig boat that almost hit me". Because they all look the same to non performance boaters. The water patrol can stop you 10 times a day for no reason, just because they want to. That will happen, and it will make boating on Norman useless for performance boats."

I cant take credit for the quote, but for what it's worth Kenny....you should rethink your motives. Long after the PRA and run is gone, just remember you have to live there amoungst people that dont like you...

Just my .02 Cents

FYI...it's whether, not weather. Weather is the temp or conditions outside you home, office, or shop.

I dont think this is about "how much you give", its about how much your going to "take" from everyone else..... The "aftermath" of your charitable event is what is of concern to people of the Lake Norman boating community.....you obviously dont care for the future of fellow performance boaters on your lake.

Long Duck Dong Everyone Doesn't Agree With There Tast In Boating. So Like Crusers, Some Like Sport Boating , And Some Like Semi Performance And Then You Get Performance To The Extreme "me". You Dont Have To Run At Top Speed But For Sprint, People Like Myself Like The Ability To Use The Speed To Seperart The Boats So It Is A Safer Event. Spread The Boats Out , Speed Allows This. I Only Aleinated Myself From A Small Group, And Its There Seperation, They Just Think They Are Bigger Than They Are , As Well Asnot Quite As Important As They Think As Well. Ive Boated On Lake Norman For Over 15 Years And Have Never Been Stoped Or Anything.
