You need to bring one of your boats and run it!!!! If the hydro isn't ready then break out the Allison and get used to seeing the clock!!! We'll see you this weekend

You'all have a great time, I wish I could have made it BUT the flights were SOOO screwey I would either come on time to watch the race BUT I could not get a flight till mid day Sunday ( Missng the complete final day as the airport is 60+ miles from the race site ) OR have to wait till mid day Monday...
Have a safe race you guys..

Love to Rick , BUT I am stumbling over these powerheads and machine work. I'm working 6 days a week 10-12 hours a day just to stay even with them coming in. Had a traffic jam on my dead in street today 2 18 wheelers got jammed up and had to pick a number to drop motors off..
Have a safe race..
