In awe we just want that discussion to be done. The race is over, the bashing has to stop and so do the questions. Feel free to contact GN7 directly and you guys can discuss this privately. Thank you for honoring our request. Let's let it go please.

Haven't decided yet. It's kind of a long drive for me.

Let's talk about Hotboat and boats, racing, events, positive things. Boat builds, what your plans are for the winter. The bashing needs to stop.

Amen! :3:

Went to Calico Ghost Town last weekend, I was really cool all decorated up, the kids loved it. They had the "Headless Horseman" cruzing through the campground Saturday night, which creeped everyone out :cool

We also had an epic rock crawling trip through the canyons, sorry we forgot the camera :grumble

What was this thread about again ?

Hey Paul how's the Boat running ?

We went one Halloween and had a blast. Our friends go every year with a large group camping up there. It's a fun place to take the kids.

You have to get your priorities straight. My round trip mileage to Parker last weekend.

I ran the 336 with Tim in the #7 STV. From racers point of view, it was a great race. Friday qualifying added another dimension and challenge to the weekend. Cash was awarded to the top qualifiers in each division at the Pig Roast at the Pirates Den's on Friday night. Scott handed me (and the other top qualifiers) $200 cash for the top Div II time in the #30 boat in front of a packed house. Unfortunately we also broke the transom out of the boat and the #30 was not able to race on Saturday.

I teamed with Tim and the #7 OCM team for the 336 Enduro race Saturday. Tim, from OCM Marine, is a highly talented offshore racers but new to closed course circle boats. We came up with strategy for the race including laps, driving, refueling, pitting etc. Luck fell our way and everything worked as planned from our starts, driving, pits, through to the finish of the race. The last few laps of the race were nail biters as the handicap was running out and the faster boats were closing in. Every minute gained on the coarse and holding it all together is what made the difference. River Dave handed us $2,500 cash at the awards ceremony and huge silver cup. He also handed us cash for the Division win but I lost track of the count at the bar buying drinks.

Hot Laps and OCM Marine did an incredible job rigging the boat in just a few days for this race... I would recommend them highly for high performance boating work. As you may have heard Tim bought the boat just last Tuesday and previously had no plans to run the race. Tim and team were top notch professionals and they are people of great character. Personally, it was a weekend I will remember for a lifetime.

Initially, I was conflicted about running the race due to promoter issues but at the end of the day, promoters promote, and racers race. Each is personal choice. Hope to see all of you at the Thanksgiving Regatta and supporting SCSC. I agree with the moderator... let's talk about Hotboat and boats, racing, events, positive things.

Nice. A couple of my buddies took their families out there for a nice 4x4 weekend. I saw some pics they posted on FB and it looked like a really good time.

Boat is running good.....haven't had as much chance to run it as I'd like with all the work going on around the house.

We got our final from the City Friday so now I can do all the stuff I really want to do to finish up the remodel.

How's your's coming along???

And there you have it, straight from the mouth of a racer. Congratulations and I'm certainly happy to hear of your experience. See you at the Regatta!!
