Green Lake 2008 Perf. Ski and Boat Comp.

Remember this topic and paragraph from back last August and the small stir it caused?
"New idea for next year: To make power and pull an element as opposed to just hole shot and top speed, AND put more sport into it, I suggest we have an event where each boat has to pull a deepwater barefooter as well. I choose Hollywood as my skier and BoatDr wants Johnny. It brings total HP more into the deal. You like that don't you Tim and BFN's?"

Well, I didn't want to add further to that previously misguided thread (Bragging Rights II), but since we haven't discussed this topic for 8 months now, isn't it time to do some real planning?

So besides some friendly grudge match drag racing which is a given (unless you're at a New England event), what were some of the other suggestions which leaned toward 2-man+ team events?
* Deep water drags? - Simply the drag race with a barefooter behind you.       
* Slalom relay? - Drag start with a slalom skier then drop him to swap driver and skier. Can be just 2 or 3 or whatever.
Ideas, thoughts??

Sounds like a tractor pull,is Reid setting someone up? Is he putting a turbine in a CC?

I've been botoxing and cortisoning my soles Reid for the ultimate glide, should be ready by July.

We're actually planning to come somewhat stock original this year with baby blue and the Classic staying home. And yes, I like that SS Class as well Steve and Tim. Rodney is bringing the light blue 72 Skier, whose engine has never even been out of the boat. And same holds true for my 73 Mustang, which looks like a GL candidate. And both of those original HM's still run OK.

However, this doesn't bode well for Hollywood and our barefoot drag competition. HW, you might want add a little botox to your as# as well.

Didn't sound good did it Cat!

Ummm... I was kind of envisioning lining up against 62 Wood, not the likes of Reid and Tim

LOL

hahaha...nice try. I might have fallen for that line some 340 posts or so ago, Reid.
