Went to high school with his daughter. Never saw that boat rigged like that. Was that picture taken before or after he got the boat back from the Greeks? I only recall seeing Tin Fish rigged with 2 inline 6s.Quote:

Back in the day circa 1989 Lake Simcoe, certainly one of the hardest accelerating 25 talons I had ever run. Second Effort 4.0l , dual plug heads, with custom rods, pistons and a liberal internal massage among other balance improvements. 14.5x34p HOSS Hyperdrive Offshore props and on the rev limiter at 8200 rpm of a short firing pin away from transforming into large grenades....lol
Her name was "Indigestion"

That was such a cool event
I think I may have a magazine covering it.
I do have an autographed picture from Jimbo showing he and Bill Muncey in the bleachers BS’ing.
IMO, two of THE best ambassadors for the state of boat racing.
Both, Pure class.

I am pulling so hard for "the Swede" Erik Stark to win the UIM F1 race in Portugal this weekend.
To see Erik beat all the high dollar Arabic Teams after what they did to him last year would be hilarious.
Go Erik..!!

Erik Stark was fastest in the UIM F1 Grand Prix of Portugal Extra Free Practice
Everything feels very good and it was nice to have a session and go through everything that you planned.
We have something left.
We went a little safe today and will make some adjustments.
Today was really all about getting as many laps in as we could and for sure tomorrow we will find more.
