The really "Old School" boating thread

I guess weight, and because they can. Why else does anybody use the shit?
No, I don't have any close ups of the hardware, but if you go to Puddingstone you can check it out, I believe it planned to be there. Its a pretty cool arrangement and is incredibly adjustable.
If it doesn't kick ass at Puddingstone, it can't kick ass anywhere. But I wouldn't place any of my hard earned money on it.
Its not a good boat for tight tracks like Long Beach or Parker. It needs a big course like Puddingstone, or Burley.

If Too Tall Charlie was going to be there with the k150, my money would be on him. If Steve Sequera can get the K24 thru the corners fast enough, he'll bury them. And then there is Robbie Devine to deal with as well, and he can't flat get it thru the turns there. It should prove interesting.

If the motor stays together in the big orange machine it will be way out front.

If YOU were out there and I installed your return spring backwards, you'd be way out in front

There are lot of "IFs" in this race. This is race that can be won or lost in the turns, but for totally different reasons that Long Beach or Parker.
I would never discount the Ty in the Blown Bros boat, or Tony in the K69 either.

Its could get interesting.


I'm sitting here debating whether we should show up and reduce the IFs in the GN class a little

LOL yeah I wish!

I'm picking Ty in the 66 for second and Steve will be right there close to him. I heard the 69 has a new driver.

You should definetely show up with your boat and kick some ass!

You could be right about the 69 boat.
Ty and Devine in Buckles boat both are fast, if the Bucks Up team brings the K boat. Hard to say, but like Jerry said, that thing could be parked. When I talked with Robbie about it, it was on Friday morning. Lot went down after that!!!

Yeah, I think we might have to drag in out of the moth balls. Not sure if the old guy has plans to drive it at Puddingstone, but he has been seen taking some high speed passes with in at the river, He could use an attitude adjustment.
