Sunshine Syndicate - Blast from the Past
You know who you are! The Syndicate was the Shizzle. Digging through some old boxes and came across these.
If you've been around the forums since the early days (I was here under another user name starting around '01 I guess), then you'll remember this group of guys.
Skip, H2oNut, Shore Pounder, Foley, and a few other names come to mind. A lot having since forgotten as folks move on.
Peace!
Doubledog!

Had a good chat with Skip last night on FB about the stickers. Everything has a season, but that to me was the golden days of S&F.

That was when I was moving hell and high water trying to move to Fla from Ohio.
I was/am friends w/all those guys.
And every one of them always rolled out the red carpet every time I was down.
That was back before everybody knew everything from the internet.
They were doing it for real and posting about it.
Not trying to write a good story.
I finally got my Vector to bust a 100 down there at bull**** hill and in attendance was, Skip/Talon 2.5, Brian/Shorepounder, and H2onut.
You can see all of their boats in that video on youtube.
Always loved that I finally busted a 100 there.
I think they were as excited as I was.
All, truly special people.
Remember Skips screamtoons?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.
