When people run down to the lake to see what's making that noise, you've succeeded.

A couple of us already knew the answer to this a few weeks back. Even his dogs are fast!
From JR_VIC's prop testing thread.

I think reid was willing to concede hole shot to the boatdr, but he could generally pull away on the top end. I had a good view of the runs from a couple hundred feet behind.

It was sunday right after I saw you pulling out and I was pulling in, there has to be video somewhere... just as long as it doesnt make it back to the sheriff a few rules might have been bent..

I went out and ran with them since i promised the boat doc a few months back that I would give him the chance to kick my ass if he showed up at green lake, but I ain't showing up to that fight again in a 19 foot b0at with fins, I still have that mustang of mine around here somewhere, if I want to compete thats what I will bring.
I did however have some success with the 83 tonight after changing the spring on the secondaries two steps lighter but thats a different thread. |

You can say that again! Reid let me take it for a spin on Sun- its even scarier driving than it is in the back seat! Once that boat planes off no one else has a chance at keeping up. |

Nobody remembers second place.Reid has the top speed holder,55 or 56 mph.
Boat dr was the hole shot king, but 53 mph won't keep Reid from running you down, did pull off one win out of four runs. That Mustang be fast reid,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, I ain't doing any more to mine , Karen says she's fast enough, and my wallet is flat...........boat dr |

Billy, I know that you and some others may find it hard to believe, but I guess I'm just a little bigger speedfreak (aka redneck) than you. Your engine in my boat would have taken it all. I've had 10 years to chase that thing for every little bit of speed possible, from grinding the hook out of the hull, to testing 100 diff props, and finally to placing a well-fed MaddMarxx in the back seat to really make her bounce. Your hole shot waxed me better than Hollywood's bikini line, so we'll call it even as I thought I'd own the take off and falter on the top end. Tim got me there too as it turned out. So after our last conversation that afternoon regarding your potential, if my baby blue comes back next year she'll watch the drag action from the sandbar. Joe, JrVic, and Tim, and whoever else,......the stage is yours.

quinner, soooo glad to meet the famous barefoot guy, you impressed us both.The shot of you on the back of the boat with the wash off hose was too cool.
As we say down here "A large time was had by all". Thanx for being a part of an unforgettable vacation .We shot 565 pics and will start posting soon......... Steve & Pam words do not work to describe the comrardery that we felt.And a special thanx to MoJo,Keith & Allen for all the hard work that went into pulling this thing off. Would like to see it moved to a lake where the water is not soooo Cooold......boat dr |

Forget the bragging rights for boat engines- wasn't there some trash talk about east coast vs. midwest drinking as well a while back? Who came out on top there?

Don't know about anyone else but Tim sure held his own (in more way's than one), Thursday night we kind of wore him down however, he was wobbling and kept loosing his beer while we were turning all Reid's trailers around backwards down at the launch at 2:30am, lucky thing Five-0 gave us a lift back to the camp site that night!!

With the Midwest having a captain like quinner and wingmen like Brownie and HW, it's hard to imagine anyone beating them. But the East discovered the ShotSki and got that party rolling, and with an bar icon like Marshall, we did some serious damage, plus JoeNY, TimB, Nick, MM,...well those are some pretty big boys also.

Let's not forget 79, Moj, and if you were to watch Stang pretty much always has a beer in hand as well. I was drinking double Beam and Cokes ("jbear specials") and still couldn't taste the Beam on Saturday night. Ramped it up to a triple, all while keeping the price a at a low, low $5. I don't know how late you guys rocked the campground, but I know we closed down the Goose Blind Friday and Saturday.

As far as I'm concerned Tim can hang with us PLBC guys when it comes to drinking. Him and I were at the Goose Blind till last call Friday night, up at 5am for barefooting, grabbed some quick breakfast, then right out to drinking at the sandbar, back to the Goose Blind and still around for last call Saturday night. My one critique is that I didn't see him doing any beer bongs, but that's still one hell of a bender.

OK, I give up trying to defend the drinking team. So here are some shots taken during the Green Lake 2007 Summer Nationals.
I'll be surprised if next year doesn't bring out a few more competitors. |

Add Brians 72 318 fuel inj. SN to the list...that one is a rocket too!
Hollywood...12 oz in one hand seems to be a balance thing...without it ,I would walk with a list |

Tim, that was a little salt in the cut ....
There were some strong boats in the hunt this year, hope there is more competition next year. With all the big iron out there ,I would have thought it would have less talk and more walk,But the pics tell the real story. TALK IS CHEAP / SPEED AIN'T boat dr |
