The third Saturday event is closeing in.Just wondering If anyone new will be comeing to this race?Richard Martin, are you bringing anything new to the table?I hered something about a new boat for you.How about Wayne Weatherby or Dorsey Frabbot's boy and his nephew Doc?They got a fast STV and a bass boat that fly's pertty good too.Come on guy's even if you dont race your boat try and make it anyway.Its a lot of fun to watch.Somebody get Leonard Dix and his boy "SHORTMAN" from the Suwannee area.They got fast Allison drag boats too.The more boats we get to run will generate some payback money.So far the amont of boats doesnt even cover the racers insurance.Its time to step up to the plate so "BRING IT":eek: :D :cool:

Rob ,Done went and let the smoke out of my little motor . Going to be a little while before I get something back togather . Your sort of wright , there is something cookin at the house . Not real sure how well it's going to drag race . That's yet to be seen . The old Mirage 018 is up for sale if you might know any one over that way interested . I'll let it go boat & trailer for $4500.00 . I think that's pretty fair for a solid little boat . Going to try to get up and spectate , sure like to see both you and Sam , along the all the others out there . SEE YA Rich Martin 018

rmh , don't remember exact weights , somewhere between 1350 & 1400 pounds rigged with my 200 plus and 7gal. of fuel . Also depends on whose scale you use . Makes a good boat for lake and race . Robs seen both veiws of it , side & rear :D . I think Rob has some pics of it , and you sould have video of flyby at Clearmont . Rich Martin 018

yellowallison
07-29-2004, 02:21 PM
I mostly run a ....a good 26ET for everyday ridin - horse playin...
for 1/4 mile... I run a 22et that tight and progreses to more like a 23 on the big end.. still peters out @ 9200 right before the 1/4..
A got an loose 24ET also but it gets yur arse left out of tha hole..
I had a good Yammy 24 with a welded fat hub but I broke a blade for the 20th time on trying to run it yammy on a heavy fishin boat..
Jus what i found that works (OK/best) with tha 280's and 9200 ecu's and that also will fits tha big shaft. :o
V8astrovan
07-29-2004, 02:25 PM
ya my rev is @ 8250 soo i should try a 24 et? i had a 26 that i ran but it kept cracking blades. i tried this prop i donno what kindda cut its a 28 i ran 99 on the rev w/ full load and 2 ppl in about 3 miles
Sam ,not sure who you are but Im guessing you raced ROB,if so you picked on one of the heavyest LIGHTNING STV's I 've built,If you want to show me something come to cresent city not the next race I am putting my daughters boat together for that race but I will be at the next with my LIGHTNING STV ,and I will give you every chance to beat one of my LIGHTNIG STV's ,all I'll say is DO YOUR HOMEWORK !! If you beat ROB I hope it was by more than 5 boat lenths,or you will be in for a big let down !!! So bring your old School and I'll show you how we do it in the NEW SCHOOL !!! john " CHIP II IS COMING "

07-29-2004, 04:37 PM
Just imagine how fast that boat would be if you took off that OMC and all those bungee cords and put a MERCURY on the back!;) :p :D What do you guys use all them bungee cords for anyway? does the motor try to come up in the boat with you in reverse or something?:confused:
It seems that ROB did WHOOP YOUR ASS ,at this last race !!he did bring home first place ,So like I said the first GO HOME AND DO SOME MORE HOME WORK ,this is the TEACHER your trying to play with now ! Not one of my 1ST grade Students !! NOW FOR YOU RMH77 CHICKEN **** !!!! you know if you don't show up to race HEATHER your going to be the BIGGEST joke on SAF !! Im sorry A bigger JOKE than you allready are !!! You need to head to LK tarpon ,it will be your only chance to out run Andy while hes breaking in his motor ,after tomorrow its last place for you for ever unless you get a LIGHTNING !!!

That that pic was taken by Lamar near the starting line not the finish line.And if you look you will see that my motor is by far ahead of yours.That pic makes your nose appear in front of mine cause your way closer to the camera.I wasnt going to get in on this but thats how I see it.You did beet me a few times but I did winn the last race.Sam and Ron,Good luck at the next race and may the better boat win.This is going to be a close points race.Your in first so far If I get second I'll be happy with that.:)

But I'll tell ya that big fancy truck is real nice but it don't make ya go any faster ,I do my home work be for I get to the race ,not while going down it !!If I like Drag racing you can bet JACK and RAY and MIKE will have compatition,I schooled them in OFFSHORE this is much easier and cheaper than a three engine offshore boat !!Im sure I can play in this game just fine !

If you are talking about me being a first grader your on crack.As my memory serves me you have been taught three lessons about drag racing with me as the teacher.Every time you call me to come run with you so you can see how fast your boat and setup is I blister your ass!:eek: You have had three different setups and two different boats that cant touch me.The closest one of them was when you finally agreed to try and set it up the way I told you to.And even then you couldnt beet me through the quater.So as I see it I'm the teacher and your the Kindergarden puple :eek: :D School is again in session so when you decide that you realy want to race , sharpin your pencil,sit down in your seat, shutup and lissen and then you might have a chance to win a third place trophy.:D Mr. Lankford:cool:

It's spelled "competition" no "a" in it and I'm not worried about you being it when you can't even spell it.........continue to live in the past because your future in drag racing may not be as "easy" as you think.
Your Hero,
Ray
And I want to be just like you when I grow up !! And were all smart enough to know that it takes lots of money and a little luck,and some common knogle of what makes a boat run fast ! I give you Full throttle guys all the creit in the world ,you are the TOP DOG's bUT like all SPORTS you can't be TOP DOG allways!So there's a new OLD TOP DOG coming your way SOON !! Keep doing your home work and don't slack off,you never know when the old dog will show up with a bigger and badder toy !! john

95 to 40 .. go west to hwy 17 turn right... 10-15 miles to cresent city.. through town look for winn dixie on left and turn right at lil boat racing signs on side of road... or big sign that says lenards landing..
Sign on right. Just past Huddle House. If you see the Winn-Dixie, turn around.
What class would a stock 260 with 26cc heads run in , and what would it have to weight?

Just got home.Yep it was rain rain and more rain.The wind was also to high.I went out saturday to check the course out.Made it about 100 feet before the nose of my Lightning shot to the moon.Thought we might have a chance to run today but still more rain.Was good to see all who came out and hope you OMC guy's come back for the next race.The next race will be at Lake wail's on Sept 11 th we will be racing along with some roundy round boats.Ron rescheduled our race to run with them on that weekend.There should be some kind of pay out to look forward to as well.Anyway we gave it a try and mother nature said no.We'll just have to get our fix on the Elleventh or at Sneads Florida for the ODBA race.Peace out Rob Lankford.
