Back in the saddle again
Well I couldn't take it any longer. After a couple year leave of absence from racing because of the death of my crew chief, I will be back next season racing SST120. I don't know if you ever can get racing out of your system. I picked up my new(to me) Seebold 120 boat Saturday. It seems like a really solid boat. It does need some tlc but I'll get it back the way I like them.

Very cool! Congrats.
We now live a 1/2hr from the river and an hr from you. Let me know if you need a good pit grunt next yr.
SST 120 is one of my favorite classes.
PS, I work for beer.I'd rather be competitive w/junk I built in my garage than win w/stuff I bought.
I refuse to allow common sense to interfere w/my boat buying decisions.

Funny that the weekend we hit Cinci (to live) there was a race a 1/2 hr from our new place and the next weekend an hr away. I wanted to hit both but might not have gone well missing the closing of our house.
Not sure how many weekends I'll be able to make but I'm good for a few.
I'll stop in next time I'm your way and we can chug a few while articulating

I hope you and Gator hook up and form a team. He would be a very good team mate. He`ll even sleep on your hotel room floor with a Merc power head to guard it! LOL!

Been there. done that
One time back in the day..........., I rebuilt a MK 20H on the table in my hotel room and hot wired the vibrating bed to run all night. Yes, it was a nice place
Bobby I would love to race a 120 boat.

I am running a 120 powerhead. Come to our races. Buckeye Outboard will have 2 races on the Ohio river and there are a couple other on the river as well.
