Default 2009 Shootout - Team KANSAS

Won our class!!! (First and Last... Nobody in our class...)
We ran 85 on Saturday after waiting over 2 1/2 hours out at the start boat to run. I was pleased with that speed since we ran 86 last year light on weight and fuel. This year we had some weight (gear) in the boat and were heavy on fuel. The cool weather was the key.
After waiting all that time on Saturday I said to heck with running on Sunday.... Although now I wish I would have just to see what we would have got?? They were moving boats thru much faster on Sunday!! On the way back to the ramp I hit 87 pretty easy and ran out of room....

All in all it was a Great Event!! Ron and his crew do a great job!! We actually stayed right at Captain Rons and that was AWESOME!! We could look out our window and see everything!!!

And I wasn't the only 28 Saber there!!!

You guys are going to hate me, but I didn't take any pics other than with my cell phone. I was pretty busy all weekend. (for those that hadn't heard my .38 Special was stolen about two weeks ago and they found it on Friday of the shootout)

The other saber was the 28 that has newer paint (kinda green and blue) beautiful boat!! I've seen it on here before. We only got to wave to each other because it was just as the course was closing on Saturday and we were leaving. I would have loved to get a better look at it and show it to all of my buddies to show how good one can look!!

That must have been Martin's boat.

Any damage done to the 38? Better yet, any damage done to the jerk off that stole it?

Brad, nice to meet you this weekend. Sunday was much better to run. You guys definitely should have raced again.
