      BUT THERE"S MORE

      After blowing up my Astroflight 212D at WWIII, Dan Chase loaned me what he described as an ESC you custom made for his drag car. (I forgot to return it to him....)

            Can't remember Doozie's real name...??

            Jim C is Jim O...sborne

            The only one that hasn't been named is Dennis. Local guy that won a lotto scratcher or something and we haven't heard from him since.

            My Patriot looks nice and shiny! I was actually eyeballing it yesterday. It needs some love, and will get it one of these days.

              Oops - Correct on Jim O. (how could I forget?)

              Doozie is James Kennedy. I Miss him - Dan Chase too........

              If you're thinking of selling the Patriot................

                Do I get extra credit for remembering that one of those guys has a poultry allergy and that another is lactose intolerant?

                    T-I've got your name on the Patriot. it's either staying with me...or going to you. I do have the desire to rehab it 1 more time, so we'll see how I feel once done. I've got a few projects in front of it.

                    It's amazing the stories our boats have. Naylor made (and gave) that boat for me after doing well with my OM 21 @ the '03 Nat's. One of the nicest gestures I've received in the FE world. Won Q Mono with it @ the '04?? Michigan Nat's. Beat out Brooks on time. Many races under its belt over a 10+ year span that it was an active race boat. Run over by gas monos in the District kids class a few years back, plus a few good hits in FE competition, too. Even with all of that, it's close to being in running condition again.

                      That sounds like Pruex (can't spell it) stunt to me.
