    I should but I've never run this thing on this setup. I put it in the led sled. I'm expecting it to be nearly un-driveable. Still runs well but it's a tank. Not much of a time trial boat. Half falling apart. I need to get going on a Pearl. Just haven't had time.

    I have time to get it wrong at the club level.

    Another great weekend thanks to the FAST crew Mike, Mark & Mikey, without these guys these weekends just wouldn't happen.

    The weather was nice for this time of year but we had a nagging 5-10 mph breeze from the east most of the day Saturday that kept the water rough all day. Sunday was better with some good water at times and a few stuck around to shake off the winter rust.

    FAST member Mike Nowicki had his new A (.12) hydro running in the 80's on it's first weekend out, very impressive. Scott Tonak ran many 10.5 sec. laps with his Backlash LSG Sport hydro, just 1 sec. off the oval record.

    FAST member Mark Stein had his Mutt humming and ran a "lazy" 23.2 sec. oval.

    Shawn Swain braved the conditions with his Q Cat trying for his 100 patch and ran 92 and change the "long way" though the traps.

    Mike Stevens came out Sunday and ran his 67 and twin Roadrunners to some hot laps.

    Dave Murany ran his beautiful new 67 Roadrunner getting ready for the upcoming season.

    Our National Hydro Director Mike Betke dropped by Saturday for a visit, good as always Mike.

    Looking forward to the Fall!
