Hey Gang,

I was already for Wednesday night testing and then I hear from the wife that she planned some dinner that I need to go to. I don't get it, something about my birthday being on Wed, and see wants to take me out to dinner. I didn't have the heart to tell her that I would rather play with boats... LOL

It's YOUR b-day, you should do what YOU want to do, friggin women they just don't get it. I told my wife for my 40th b-day i didn't want a party I didn't want to do anything. And what does she do, she throws me a party anyway that cost me almost 10 grand of MY money. I wanted to KILL her.

Mike, I want to be your buddy, so that when you hit 50, I will be invited to one hell of a party. That is only if you are still married :)

ELVIS HAS LEFT THE BUILDING! haha Everything appears to be working properly again.

It was just me and Ty out there last Wed. Bob stopped by with his 55" gas cat. We should build one of them just for shock value. Maybe this winter or something.

The gas gang had not moved our course south like we feared. Well, yet at least. Much further and they'll be on land. Hopefully John will talk them out of that.

You guys could start sponsoring me and my 67" I just received. I would like to bring it on 24th but there would be no other room. Going with 2X2215's.

What were they out of the big ones? That should come with a trailer.

Ya know........I just happen to know where there are some molds for a sweet looking 96" cat......bahahahaha Twin 2230's on 12s2p per side. sick-o. I wish I could find some sugar daddy to build one of those for. Someday I'll do a budget on one. But that's IT!

67" will be bad enough. My wallet is quivering just thinking about it. Where the heck do you run something like that? and how quick does it get out of range? Might want to get a rider on your homeowners.

oh, its one of those long term projects. For now I have races to try to win. I will see you guys on the up coming holiday weekend. This time with a shade tent and cooler full of liquids. Perhaps Norm will show?

HAHA That is a holiday weekend. FRED!!! No spring MiCup though so easier sell.

I just talked to Norm a few hours ago. Might see him at the pond this evening. He's one of the good guys. If his house gets robbed he wont even need to call the police. He knows all his junk will be at my house. Maybe if I grab a microwave on the way out it will be less obvious.

Hey, with the Obonomy the way it is, bring the cover, chairs, grill and wife or ? and picnic. Whats better than a picnic and boat racing.......... Next year we need to check the calendar out before making the race dates LOL. At least we don't have to worry about the rest of the months.

Terry/Tyler, Fred & Myself

Terry tested his Whip(Holy crap!), Viper & the Jewel

Fred LSO(Holy crap!) & his Sport 40 (Ditto)

I put a run on the big Cat, up'd my best to 65MPH! Then it took flight, no damage. I'm still num!

The other club threw some more buoys out. Now its an obsticle course! LOL

Ken's Razor gets faster every time we go out.

Ty ran pretty well but I think the geese put out a hit on him. We tried my 433/3 on the new motor and it was just okay. The Lejner likes the 632 better.

The Whip ran just a tick under 60. 60!! Time to turn it back into an LSH.

Fred hit 58 with the AC running like a dolphin. The setup is a mess but that thing is going to be stupid when we get everything right. It's coming in at 107 degrees. Needs a new fin, some strut adjustment, and more prop in my opinion.

Still not happy with the Joule. It was a little better but still not quite right. Moving on to revision 2.

We took some cool video. I think I caught Ken's flip. As soon as Ken figures out how to extract it from his camera I'm sure he'll share.
