Hey Jeff, I might need a room for memorial day weekend. Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights. Let me know what you got.

I'll have my HPR there, and another project is in the works. I hope we can show the gas/nitro guys a thing or two this year.

Ill be there with Johnson(Eric) and Suckmywake(Bob). Ill be bringing my 32" Apparation twin cat and maybe my Drifter L if I ever get off my ass to get it done. I wish I had a bigger boat,but I dont. Need some more cash. So far, Ive had my 32" up to 81mph on smooth water. Im expecting choppy water at the shootout though. And Ill be needing a room during that time too.

We are going to "bring it" don't worry. Especially since the fast nitro boat last year was in the low 60's.

Since your on an electric forum, what are you going to "bring"?

I do have a new electric bullet in my arsenal should be a good time. It will be nice to see what else shows up this year. As long as the conditions are not like last years shootout we should see the numbers quite a bit higher. :rockon2::rockon2::rockon2:

from just watching the video ....do u just run for strightaway speed or what?

LarrysDrifter
05-27-2011, 01:15 PM
Yes. Same as SAW, but without the regulations. There are only different classes. Run what you brung basically.

Jabbo
05-27-2011, 01:16 PM
Its all saw runs for top speed.

Around me......ummm.....,through my boat is more like it, Jeff. We now have to put warning signs up around the lake to warn fellow boaters that possible damage may a cure to their boats when Jeff is in the water. :rofl:

Hell I have a twin GEN I need to finish! Figure I would close the shop a couple weeks for vacation and get her done and tested.

I wanted to say thanks to all the FE guys that showed up at the shootout. You all, definitely had some nice equipment! It was a shame the conditions were so bad (again!) but all in all I had a blast! It was good to meet the some guys that were into the sport and look forward to running with all of you again. :buttrock:

Have a good one!:cool2:

Thanks!

There isn't anyplace to see the results, but I can tell you that the fastest boat went 56 mph. If that tells you anything about the conditions. Every one off us flipped or dunked our boats, and I know I used four trips in the retrieval boat just to get my boat alone!

I not sure on this one, but Eric or Bob might post a video soon.

Had a great time at the mini shootout. Met a lot of great people.

My HPR that will go 80mph was only able to put down 44mph in the conditions we had to run in.:sad:

Still was a lot of fun. Aaron and Jabbo, thanks for the help. Hope to see you guys soon.:thumbup:
