How much gas will dd use for worlds?

[imco offshore]

OK here! this is serious,,, out of 6 days on the water,,, 3 test days to get the gear ratio, x-dem ,prop size right ,,, and 3 more,, green flag race days ,,,what will be the TOTAL amount of gallons used by the DAREDEVIL RACEBOAT? :rofl: Thanks, and i will cary a min. of 35 gallons on the first 2 races ( 18 miles )
and around 45 for the sunday race.

The boat just likes it since its light anyways !!!!!

Usually i figure 1 mile per gallon, is what it needs.

and 3-4's is perfect !!!!!!!!

[Trim'd Up]

2 gallons. ;)

[SVL66]

4 gallons:sifone:

[MOBILEMERCMAN]

I hope he burns 70 gallons. I don't expect a lot of testing.. He has said before he would rather break something in the race then during a test.

[phragle]

is that break or break-out?

[MOBILEMERCMAN]

Break, break out, run out. All = bad day.

[PARADOX]

In this respect, I rather be racing.
I used about 200 gal. on the 2008 Poker Run.. just to get there.
I used about 10 gal to go to lunch. :)

[Dunbar 104]

Is the tow boat included in the fuel usage?

[Dunbar 104]

Jenni said 15 gallons.

[Trim'd Up]

Is the tow boat included in the fuel usage?

That's harsh!:sifone:

[MOBILEMERCMAN]

4 gallons:sifone:

That's about what he used last year. So any more than that is an improvement.



DD must be working or something. I am surprised he hasn't had anything to say here.

I am rooting for ya Scotty.:leaving:

[Buoy]

DareDevil should be renamed silly putty - for many reasons.
Man, he takes a beating here, but I give him credit that he keeps coming back for more, or less.
I'm always one that roots for the underdog.
But, I'm not sure I'd get in a boat with the underdog.
Good luck Scott.

[MikeyFIN]

That's harsh!:sifone:

don' t need no tow:sifone:boat...
I' m here at Bradenton <hopefully my help is good!

I did and will come back for more!
Thenagain I' m analyzed also punch drunk...\\
and wish us all Daredevils luck... for the whole race weekend...we are looking to score....

[2TR]

How much will he put in his tank, or how much he will actually use?

45 In the tank, 17 used..

[mdkeywest]

You all are riding DD pretty hard ,considering none of you ( an entire svl field ) will not be using any fuel for the worlds .
funs fun ,but the largest roster of what was an offshore organization against one guy is a little harsh . I know he earns a portion of abuse ,However I am always puzzled as to the enjoyment of 5 against 1 ,
Very ghetto .

Yea I know ( mdkeywest banned ,date lifted never )

Naw, all's good.....


DD gives, DD takes... :sifone: That's the way it goes.

As MMMan said, we are rooting for him. Were really pushing for him when Mika came all the way over. Maybe this time is the time.....:)

[imco offshore]

yes were are all grinding,, but if he would to complete one or two days WE ALL would sit down with SCOTT and MIKA and buy them a lot of beer,,,were all racers, and friends,and i would give scott anything thing i had at a race so he could compete,,hes cool with us,,, and he will come home next monday and grind us back for the whole year. we just save it up! :leaving:

Yes Jim, when you were typing this they were putting eng back in (till 230AM)
I'm sure youve been there a few times!!!!!! All those last minute SNAFU things that pop up.
I predict there might be some Crow dinners this week.

[MOBILEMERCMAN]

I know all too well. Put motor in on Thursday. Show up Friday and test. Race return . Pull motor...Repeat..

Thing is he had a month to get it ready.

I just hope he does well.

[MikeyFIN]

well... it´s still racing is all I have say as we speak...and will give me flashbacks tomorrow...

[Ratickle]

well... it´s still racing is all I have say as we speak...and will give me flashbacks tomorrow...

Ahhhh, flashbacks. :sifone:

Sometimes not good.....:ack2:


Good luck, see you Thursday......

[Geronimo36]

Thing is he had a month to get it ready.

That's the one thing I've never understood and this has nothing to do with DD...

I have seen many, I mean a LOT of race teams do everything last minute... Guys trailering all the way to a race site not even testing the boat before putting it on the trailer.... I mean, at least get a hose on it and fire it up!

They get to the race site and wind up having to wrench on it up until hours/minutes before a run... :(

Ask anyone, I'm the king of fire drills but it's never because I put something off till the last minute. ;)

[imco offshore]

ok it,s wed at 2,30,,how far did he go?

[AugiePensa]

George, I left a message for Schultzy right after the race race...still hasen't called me back yet and I had a Few Choice Italian Words for him that I can;t put on serious offshore cause it offends people, but I'm sure The Rat Ba$tard will call back soon.

[SVL66]

i heard he finsihed a couple laps

[AugiePensa]

Good start for him

[imco offshore]

so how many laps are each race,,, 6,,,,6,,,,10,? how far is each lap,,, 6 miles? and what is the total for the week to get a title. thanks . i really do want to know! Augie easy on him hes got 4 more days,:driving:

[Wahoo 214]

He said he used 4 gallons testing and 19 gallons racing and milling and he said for the rest of us smart a$$es, he put 150.00 in his truck to get to Key West. I smiled :rofl:to myself, told Schultzy to go fuc$ himself :beatdeadhorse5:and hung :nopity:up! I call him again after the second race.

The average speed is not because the motor,,,,its because of me ! i had to come out off it way to many times ( NEW DRIVER ) he never been in a raceboat before and we still had a blast.
The engine was my old bottom end, so i can't blame the engine builder either.
the crank is about 6 years old and the rods even older .LOL
NO MONEY ......thats what u get.

Anyhow,,,,building a new engine as we speak ( BRAND NEW ) ,,,,stay tuned.
