    "The Wizards"

    For us old timers.

    List the wizards from the day. The ones that we used to wait on to post.
    The guys that truly knew of which they spoke.

    Have seen others suggest this, never done?

    Please, no BS. This is my thread so I can delete what I want.

    So:

    Galen Burden

    Tony Brucato

    nosubforcid

    John Marles (US1)

    Chuck Goodman of Nitrox fame, aka professor outboard.

    Al Stoker (racer)

    Wayne Taylor (mad man)

    ???
    I'd rather be competitive w/junk I built in my garage than win w/stuff I bought.


    I refuse to allow common sense to interfere w/my boat buying decisions.

    Killer!

    Fujimo, I bought my first bore light off e-bay.
    A very nice light in a metal cigar box. Hand cut foam to protect the light.
    Outside of box says, "Dick O'dea Racing".

    I verified it was his light.
    I'd rather be competitive w/junk I built in my garage than win w/stuff I bought.
