Well Laker.... I have 100's of more pics of through the years of Hydrostreamin... if ya wanna see them or need anymore "PROOF"....I'll go to walgreens and have them put on a disk if ya want...I was just told ya can do that...
So what if I took alittle Break from Boating to start a Family...And you guys dont know me..So you wanna call BS!!!!!!And say who you think I am?????I can go through my Little Book and get the names of all the people that know me from the Boating life that Ive met through the years and you can ask them what they think of me, I'm pretty sure youll be surprised what they have to say about me.Theres a reason people want to come stay here....I like to screw around and have fun :thumbsup:.
The way you judge me by what is on here is a Definitly a MISTAKE!!!!......I never claimed to be the Best or the Fastest like you...Just a little pickin to have fun...thats what Friends do ya know....But we dont have to worry about ever Becoming Freinds!!!!!I think your ego is a little inflated ..I think our personalitys would clash...and that would not be a good thing!!!!!Its too bad... This could of been a fun thing,But i no longer want part of the Power tour !!!!!!!Dont expect any info or help about Castle Rock from me!!!!
Like Ive said B4 on this sight ..I dont have to play or Hang with a "Click"...I know who I am and dont need to feel Like Im the "IN GROUP"..... Ive never been that way and never will....Have fun guys and Be safe:cheers:
Whiny girls:eek:. You wont see none of that at the IL River Run. What you will see is some really fast OMC,s and some really fast Mercs and a very fast Mariner. Some of the biggest name engine builders always show up, OMC guys and Merc guys. PickleFork will be there with his twin V6 Johnsons, that thing is crazy:D, Buzzin Dozen and the boys from Iowa bring down some very fast hott rods. The only close deck V8 on the planet will be there along with Joe from Dragon Master Outboard. Rick and Pops from Pops and Beavers Race Engines will be down, some of Jay Smiths stuff will be there and Rock and the Peoria guys are always fast. So get on down here, the most jaw flapping you will here you just read:D. Be ready to burn some gas, eat some food and drink some beers and let your right foot do the talking.:thumbsup:Quote:

Sorry to bust your bubble buddy but it sure looks to me like almost every thread you get involved in gets off track and then the bashing BS starts. This thread is prime example !!!!!!!!! I know most of the guys that have worked hard to get a few guys together and call the whole deal the Hydrostream Power Tour. I give a hats off to anyone that tries to organize boating events or non-events of any kind. I know from a PILE of experience how much work it can be. Some of them I know very well and to be honest, you are really pissing me off when you start slamming my friends here. I warned you a long time ago about bashing people before you know them or who they are. (John Tiger comes to mind here, I think he just might know his Chit, what ya think?) You keep slamming Laker and his OMC, V-4, little Whiny girl boat and motor. Well guess what, I hate to admit and would hate to see Laker kick my old HST but this guy knows his chit and has gotten more power out of a old OMC V-4 than most have dreamed of. I think you should put your money where your mouth is and run him in a short course drag soon. I have a feeling he will hand you own ass !!!!!!!
Brad, I am glad you are happy with my old boat. Take good care of her. But as far as involving me, my name, or Janet's name in any of your comments or threads, STOP !!!!!!!! Don't mention anything about me or my wife that ties us to your BS (kidding or serious) comments on the internet anymore. (Yes I did see the slams about Janet running faster than the V-4 guys) I am serious about this. Don’t mention me anymore because I used to be very active on this board and was a highly respected member. I have read a few comments about myself that started after you posted stuff and didn’t like the comments made about me. (Yep, I also read the one about "Not to Drag Balzy into this but I asked him when I bought his HST why he ain’t on here anymore.....He shook his head and said TOO MUCH POLITICS!!!!!!!!!!!!") Well guess what Brad, you did drag me into it because Forkin Crazy and I have always got along just fine and he said "And if that is the real reason Balzy isn't here, then GOOD RIDANCE!!!!"
Brad, you are taking this internet thing too serious and too far. Leave me out of your comments and quit messing up other peoples threads. If you want to play, start your own threads and do it there !!!!!!

Hey Mike, correction - you ARE a highly respected member. I'm glad to see you posting :)
I agree. I felt honored to meet Balzy, Thumper and Steve A at Jasper a few years ago and I miss seeing posts from the Amigo's.Quote:
