The Rumble is 10 1/2 months away. The ET boat (Austrailian Skif eater) is in progress.

Dyno'd the motor yesterday.

And the dyno said????
I'm sorry but your picture reminds me of the saying -----------
"if it don't run, chrome it!". ;)
It is purdy though.
When dealing with Mr. Warby just remember one thing-----
all you have to do is piss him off enough to where he un-loades his boat :)

The dyno said:

600 lb/ft of torque at 4,000
565 hp at 5700

I was happy for a pump gas lake motor. The carbs are 600 cfm. Dyno said it needs more so a pair of 660's are on the way. We will make some more pulls next week.

Then the NOS goes on and Ken goes down.

PS I am hoping the drubing his skif is going to take will force him to unload his ace in the hole.

Are you ill??? complimenting an inboard???
I thought that you hated those things.
I guess the I/O thing about the Rumble and none is being reconsidered???
Inquiring minds want to know.

I still think Inboards are for Grandma's :eek:
An no, the Rumble is still O/B's only.
Same as the first two years though, if the I/O guys want to come out and play, that's fine with me.
No awards, no contests, no "real" racing.
If LT wants to have a grudge race with his I/O against "The Man's" inboard, now that's KEWL!!

OK FastEddie,

You must have missed it. This is a best two out of three grudge race between our 25 year old wooden boats with the looser writing a $500.00 check to Make A Wish in the name of the winner.

I hope Ken has started saving his money.

By the way Gary - I resemble that remark about if "if it don't run, chrome it". Seems to me you have matched cowlings on the Sonic. Guess that comes under " if it don't run, color match it".
