Worked on getting more air in the cock pit,getting fuel out of the boat,fixing the trailor,pulled the seats out and now a better way to mount movable weight. Does any one know what size laps the SVS will be racing? Speed or excleration is the next set up question our team has. We have never been there so we have no idea of water conditions.
The whole team is driving down Thur. after work in the Dog Pound motor home. We have some poker planned,arm restling,video TV and just a little drinking for all but the poor fool that will be driving us. I feel like we are going to the worlds. This may be better being its only halph the distance and a fraction of the cost.

08-09-2011 06:12 PMAfter removing my seat we noticed it was broke in half. The fiber glass cracked clean threw. I knew I snapped it at Detroit. And some people think we are staging races!!! I need to order a new seat from Jegs.

Its usually ones to two depending on the tide. The only spot you have to be careful is the far end by the inlet that can get a little rough or confused. You shoud be able to sweep the turn coming into the wall without lifting same with the right hand dog leg heading towards the inlet.

08-14-2011 05:45 PMPut the boat in the water yesterday at a function to make sure it was running good. I think my crank sensor went and we have no spark. Glad it happened there. Next stop Morehead.

08-23-2011 04:39 PMWow! 11 races in two days!! What a great weekend! I can't thank the teams who made it enough, you guys raced your butts off for two whole days and still had smiles on your faces! It was great to finally meet the "new" teams to Morehead and equally as great to see the return of some veterans! Thanks again!
