Steve Quick, Lee Austin........the new S-12

[Bobcat]

Looks sweet !:drool5:

[stevequick]

Pat,

Do you have any more shots of this boat? Is it true that this is all Kevlar and Carbon? I know the last boat Austin designed was the fastest Stock boat ever built. Will this one be faster?
We need more photos!

[Pat D]

Why yes, as a matter of fact I do have another picture of this boat and yes and yes

[Pat D]

However,

I am having trouble posting them.......maybe you could find a shot to post and share :)

[Ratickle]

Email them to me and I'll host them and post them up....

[stevequick]

Will do. It is a very interesting race boat. I will keep you updated.

[XtremeRacing]

Wow looks awesome best of luck, be great to see you guys out there soon its always exciting.

[Ratickle]

Yep, it sure will be. I hope the stock outboard class makes a full recovery to the big numbers it used to enjoy....

[XtremeRacing]

Sure looks like lt will be a great yr for the SS, with all the old favorites and a few new boats coming out . SS ls one of the most exciting classes to watch.

[stevequick]

Frank has had to watch us flying over his transom (and bow). Should be a very good year. Sending more "spy" shots of the new boat.

[XtremeRacing]

Steve those were some great races. Look forward to many more and u can do a fly by anytime or fly over. We know each other way to go to worry about you guy next to us or over us in the corners.

[XtremeRacing]

Keep the pictures coming, looking good.

[Ratickle]

Is your back good again Frank? Sure hope so.....

[XtremeRacing]

Thanks Paul getting there, KW set me back some. Really wasnt 100% for KW but gave it a shoot Sunday condition wasnt part of the plan Lol , hopefully l'll be 100% for this season. lf all goes well we will be in Biloxi...

[Ratickle]

Lots of innovation in the design. Looks like a front runner

[stevequick]

Kind of what I was thinking. I'm obviously not the engineer of this team. I do know he set out to build the fastest with the last boat which he accomplished. This time he want's the quickest.

[Ratickle]

Ready for Biloxi?????

[lightspeed]

That Looks Hot,,,,Cant Wait To See How It Runs

[Ratickle]

When is the test splash????

[stevequick]

Test month will be April. Not sure exactly what day. We have a huge conflict with the Biloxi dates. Cocoa Beach should be the first race.

I am hesitant to mention this, but does anyone else know about the Reality Show filming in and around SBI?

I just filled out Bio and Team information pages. Looks serious. I have no real information.

It could make you a household name!

[Ratickle]

The next Honey Boo Boo??????

[stevequick]

The next Honey Boo Boo??????

Exactly what I am afraid of.

If it's actually going to happen.

SQ

[Ratickle]

You'd have to gain a lot of weight Steve........:sifone:

[Bobcat]

That little girl makes something like 3K a week.....:huh:


I'm in the wrong gig;)

That's only about a dollar a bite.....

[Todd D]

Lookin' good Lee and Steve! Can't wait to see her in the water finally.

[Ratickle]

How many stock outboards are expected on the circuit this year?

[stevequick]

How many stock outboards are expected on the circuit this year?

I believe the number is 6 or 7. Who will show at which event is hard to say. I do know that going into turn 1 with all of them is what I race for.

A semi retirement is reported to be ending and a super new team form the Carribbean are supposed to be almost ready.

Fingers crossed.

We will be testing as soon as we have glass in it.

[Ratickle]

7 wide at the first turn would be a good thing........

[jonesn']

Looking good Steve!!

[Ratickle]

Getting close to water?????

[stevequick]

Getting close to water?????

Ready.
I will report on the testing. Glass guy took forever for windshield work.

I am very bias, but it looks bad ass.

[Pat D]

I hope you have some amazing new uniforms to show off with that new boat. Or do you need a designer.......I'm free...:)

[stevequick]

I hope you have some amazing new uniforms to show off with that new boat. Or do you need a designer.......I'm free...:)

Yes, working on that. I would love to see your ideas. Can you post them here?

Not going to touch the free, cheap, inexpensive joke sitting here.

[Pat D]

You just did.

Let me rephrase that.......I'm costly but .......no I'm not going there either.
Ideas.........there have to be jewels involved. Will Lee agree to that?
Didn't think so.
Don't you wish you were heading to Biloxi.

[Ratickle]

They sure could have used you in Biloxi....

[stevequick]

They sure could have used you in Biloxi....

Yep. It's a shame. That is a great venue with loads of local support. I hear nothing but good things about Biloxi. They rarely seem to get a huge turn out. First race of the year is usually not the best for attendance. We were just not ready this year or we would have been there for sure.

Working towards Cocoa Beach.

[Pat D]

Speaking of Biloxi........
75938


and we were trying so hard to be good........but under the circumstances.....:)

[Ratickle]

Did you enjoy yourself? It's my wife's favorite boat race venue. Even ahead of Key West and the Gold Cup....

[Pat D]

We did have a good time. It's a city of contrasts.........the new casinos are great but the reminders of hurricane damage are still there, and the community is very welcoming and working hard to get bigger and better.
Thanks to the Beau Rivage for the great party (beautiful hotel and casino) and our stay at the Hard Rock was the best.......because the staff is the best.:hurray:

[Ratickle]

Did you have time to eat at the steakhouse?

[Pat D]

Sure did.........fantastic

[stevequick]

Sure did.........fantastic

All due respect.This is about my new race boat. You two belong in the fancy restauran section. I expect more from Race Control.

HEY...........you expect more ????......when you call in to said race control.......you had better use a disguised voice and and a promise to be nice. And I don't believe that "due respect" stuff.............
Soooooo how are those new uniforms coming along? I can picture Lee now in diamond studded nascar style suits.
:biggrinjester: :p :grouphug: :rolleyes:

[Pat D]

AND btw......if you don't get to a race site soon...........it won't be a NEW RACE BOAT..........:p

[stevequick]

You are a cruel woman. Think you can handle the truth? Here it is. No new shirts. However,

Lee is washing his jeans for our first race. He has a ripped old Steve Quick Jeweler.com t shirt to wear. Why?

Can't make the shirts without a photo of the boat with lettering. Can't letter when the paint is still wet.

This season is feeling long already.

See you in Cocoa Beach ready or not.

[Pat D]

I am taking this situation into my own hands. I will get out my magic marker and make your shirts today

The original name is a little long for a shirt...........is it ok if it says "QuicksJewels"

signed, cruel woman

[Pat D]

P.S.
with added collar..........:)

[Bobcat]

This threads getting a bit too RACY for me:o:o:o

[stevequick]

Can I just go race? Please? I think I want to Poker Run. Where do you sign up? Do they have dunker tests? I hate those.

[Ratickle]

That would be a cool poker run boat Steve. But i think it will be a better race boat.....
