Let me know when you will be heading out again. I was thinking about a lake weir trip soon .. Go to gator joes for som R&R

Like your Vette..and Chevelle...I sold my 92 vette about a year ago and you might know my neighbor behind me bought it...so now I get to see it drive by all the time..LOL Im a old super gas racer, braket racer for some 20 years...wish I had all that money back. Yeah, we need to get together one weekend with the other SCS too. How far of a ride would it be for you to Outback Crab Shack at Greencove? (just south of Shans Bridge on St Johns) Maybe we could all meet up somewhere. Ive got to put a depth finder in mine for the areas I dont know the water.

Hi fellow SCSer, Now I know of 2 SCS owners. I would suggest a good exhaust system would probably be the best place to start with most of your money, after that you could build towards better intake and carb, camshaft, head work etc... but it would be of not much gain to do exhaust last. Do you have the stock prop with trim tabs?

Both days, do a search for for JAX airshow, the Jacksonville Power boat club is planning a raft up right off of NAS Jax.

I am going on Saturday--will launch off of 19 just north of Green Cove Springs, Blue Angles fly at 300 PM.
