I pulled up to Blarneys Island last night and got coaxed into drag racing in the Pro-Sport class. Of coarse, I get paired up with Larry Gemmp JR (Speedjr)with his 22 Rapid Craft with twin "stock" Etecs. Not that it would have mattered, but I did not even see the light go green, I heard Larry's boat spool up and he was gone. Once up on plane though, I had the boat dancing across the wakes, but Larry still won. I had a great time and if possible next week, I might have a surprise for him. Thanks for the coaxing Larry, I had a great time. Later, Dave

Thanks Donat..nice to meet you yesterday. I don't know why I can't compete with a 28 foot boat, 15X32 pitch props in drag racing??? Like I said before, half my problem was sleeping at the light. Later, Dave
