Actually gotta give Todd Sonic credit for all the footage this weekend.
Had a great time as always, sunburned in October you can`t beat that.
Me and the Todd stayed at Marina Shores and enjoyed probably the last boating day, boaters was pretty PACKED!

That's some really good stuff.......

Hard to believe it's October in Illinois/Michigan......

Nice videos Dan Baja. Looks like alot of Tom Foolery going on out there.

I heard there may have been more than one broken drive out there this weekend???

Leo had minor carb problem, but the only other thing broken was Rich's pride when Gary flat left him in the mist. Rich was doin 93 when Gary hit it. You had to see that in person to appreciate what those big twin Teague motors can do. Oh and Mike's gas issue...

I'll try to dump some photos shortly.

I think Gary probably felt like Rich when uncle Tom Tom walked past him in his Liberator Cat during the MC races this year.

I'll see if I can upload my GoPro vids this evening some time...I've got a good shot of running pretty fast past Andy, and a similar one of Gary walking away from me at 75 or so...

That was just an awesome day. Perfect water, perfect temps...finally got to show some of my mountain-bike friends what I do with myself on the weekends. By the way they said "We have GOT to get a fast boat," I'm guessing they enjoyed it.

Last year, my port side fuel gauge was reading 1/4 tank when I headed back from Michigan City. It went down to "E" just off Boater's Beach...and I made it all the way back to Hammond. This year...same scenario...only it was at 1/4 tank when we left New Buffalo. Hit "E" just after Michigan City, with the stbd tank showing 1/4 to 1/3. Well...a couple miles from Portage, I lost rpm and the port motor started sputtering. I shut it down, and we had to idle for about 45 minutes to get into the ditch. I was on the phone PLEADING with the gas dock at Marina Shores to stay open, which they did. I got there at 5:02, put a couple gallons of 89 octane in there, and made it home safely.

Joe...I ran 81.7 at 5600 rpm. Using ToddSonic's calculator, that's 11.12% slip.

We missed you and Ryan out there Joe!

I did not hear of any other breakdowns.

Looks like you boys and girls had a great weekend. I blame joe for me not being there. He sold all my parts and props just so i can try to keep up next year.

Good for you I say.

**Twin Whackas** · 10-10-2011 07:16 PM

Would have been cheaper if I had stayed here a broke something than it was for me in Vegas. I think Harrahs will be adding on to their hotel very soon with my losses. Videos are awesome. What great water for October.

Did ya at least hit up Toby Keith's bar for some meatloaf and mashed potatos? I used to stay at Harrah's quite often.

Hey Ryan...Sunday I mountain biked with a dude named Rick Wall. I've known him for a while, but hadn't seen him for a while until Sunday. We were talking about my boat, and he says..."Do you know a guy named Ryan that has a boat like that?" He said you a actually a cool guy to work with...something about leaving work to go to a bar.... Do you know anything about this?
