Yeah Ray, maybe we can actually have a conversation without me flitting off like a butterfly in the wind like I do to you at our race.

I did notice that... Not a problem. It will be nice to see you guys up here and have time to chat etc.. You'll like the sport hydros some guys from Quebec bring. All seem to be take offs from the GP boats not full sized Unlimiteds. They make their own molds and a lot of scratch building, something you are familiar with.

Money from failed ebay purchase doesn't come back until the 28th July... buggers...

Hey Terry, you got room for an empty Mean Machine hull? Jeff from WI said he might have one for me he could ship to one of you Machiganian's so you could shlep it to me :) I've already got Tom bringing my warranty Zippy pack up, don't want to ask him a gazillion favors...

I'm sick of running my beat up Geico in Spec cat so, I want to try a mean machine instead, twin out the Geico this winter with a pair of $14 motors, $20 esc's. etc... super duper ugly cheap twin build I'll call it... like all my shiznit.

Yep, my girth is down a bit so that will help some, lol... Thank you for all the hard work you guys do for me and all others, MUCHO GRACIAS!

Hey Ray-Ray:

No worries my friend, life throws us all curve balls now & then, toy boats are just that, toy boats.

FWIW, I've widened & strengthened the stairs to the driver's stand to make it easier for you, now you gotta come!

[madmikepags]

hey guys I'm sorry but I'm going to have to back out of this race, my daughter Ninas B-day is the 6th and she's decided she wants to have a party on that sat the 8th. I've been planning for this months and have gotten my boats pretty dialed and was very excited to race w all you guys but it's not gonna happen this year, sorry. If anything changes I'll let you know.

Awe bummer Mike. Family first though.

[jaike5]

That's a bummer, Family first though..... Mike have tried sweet talk'n , money etc. ? I was going to have to crap out on the Sunday but Iain's FB team got nocked out in the semi finals so I'm good to go. On another note, since dolby isn't going to drive the 22 hr to Colorado for the 2015 NAMBA FE Nats , maybe he will drive 30 min to 50 Point for the CANAM the original Northern Nats.

Cheers, Jay.

Race on

[ray schrauwen]

It would be nice to have him join in but, he said he had some family stuff too. Oh well, his loss. Sorry Mike & family, we'll miss you!

Cool Fred, thanks!

[T.S.Davis]

Sorry Ray. Missed that. We'll throw it on the pile with the other 13 boats we're dragging over. haha

This one has been on my bucket list for a couple years now. I couldnt turn down Gas Nats up in Rochester a few weeks ago so at least I made it up into D1 this year. Hopefully next year will be it.

Was at the park today, wind was blowing hard but the racing surface was flat and weed free.

Just a week to go now, if you're sitting on the fence, come on in, it's going to be a great event!

[Todd Fleury]

Getting pretty excited for this race! Look like a great site, and meet new people. Are we going to merge the nitro and FE scales?

Looking froward to having you!

Unfortunately it's not looking good for FE Scale unless we get some more entries at the last minute...

Yup, no problem at all. On site security 24/7. Some guys leave their trailers as well.

Looking froward to seeing you again, you're gonna love our "new" site!
