What time do the races start? Also, can you pay to visit the pit area to look at the boats? Think I am gonna load my son up and come on down to see the action.

WOW... what a great time down there.
my boat was about 4th or 5th fastest in our class.
we ran 90 at the 1/8th mile with a 22p drag prop i tuned. that aint bad for a stock 260.

Might be a good idea cost wise. 50 lbs is still 50 lbs. though. Don't sound to bad if ya say it real fast. But still better tha tha 100. Stay in touch......

Glad ya made it, good bunch of "good ole boyz" down there. After finding the trim ram blew the bottom out we chose to stay and work (would've been fun but money talks). I sure thought Eric would've shut out the mud sukkers!!! We're gonna have a "Test & Tune" session at Joe Pool and invite the local jet boat guys out for another round of fun. I'll post the date soon (gotta give Joe time to get the Bullet running). WOW... what a great time down there.
my boat was about 4th or 5th fastest in our class.
we ran 90 at the 1/8th mile with a 22p drag prop i tuned. that aint bad for a stock 260.

the fast jet boat was BAAAD... but he kept staging basically "on plane" at 20mph. eggbeaters stage at 7 to 8mph at an idle. they just couldn't get lined up so the jet just went to the bank.
Eric took home the title!! and on c16 gas not the normal stuff he runs. that boat of eric's is FAST!!!!!!!
