In truth. One has to admit Honda defeat!
Yellow peril will not race now and stick to charity rides for www.DebRA.org.uk
Xcat continues and new project underway....the latter will make even the marathon guys look like wimps! ;-)

Yup, One was 73, who is helping to run Powerboat P1 Superstock now.
Slightly kicked your arse mate, even with the winter Boatmad politicking.

Surely a bit of rough mixed with a big canal and the a38/m5/m4...was that to get all the old guy's breaths back?

Um...I am honourable in defeat. Ask Warsash's favourite customer how much they have paid to race in 300 this year....for the glory of beating 5 boats?
Mind you Steve and Co like good odds...just look at the USA results!
At least we got £1000s for coming 10th in Dubai!!!...
Ciao baby!
PS Yes 10th...you get guaranteed podium in Superstock...and that's desperation!

Sorry forgot to honour what a great job he and his cronies have done:
2008 - 38 boats
2010 - 11 boats
Yep he kicked my arse alright. Him and his F4SA buddies who screwed many of us...whilst they got paid!
Not kicked my arse mate...I was supporting teams...many of whom you may have noticed from the figures above didn't attend.
So I was lucky and moved on to bigger and better which was the promise to the race teams that Superstock would be the feeder to P1...what a joke that was eh?
So I am happy for these people to rest on their laurels of success in a very shallow vistory!
Some of us can take it but others fight on and pour money into a pit in order to win a battle...I bet Asif's accountant wouldn't share that concept though or even the licence stats at the RYA...!
Still if they read the complaint sent by Negotiator and Scream following Liverpool 08 and done something about it then perhaps they would bigger gate receipts...A letter co-written by one of Steve's team race colleagues...funny how leopards change their spots. Some of us stick to our principles...

Are you proud of 10th or proud of the 1000's you got paid
and by the way towing a 4.5ton boat on a 3.5 ton trailer with 1200 litres of fuel on board was not whimpy ( i know bloody stupid )

Blah, blah, blah, winge, winge, winge.
Do you ever stop?
All you seem to do is bemoan the fact that racing your boat has cost you money. Perhaps you think everyone else is making a profit?
Try to remember one thing, where boat racing is concerned - any kind of boat racing! - the ONLY way to make £1m from the sport is to start with £5m!

Everytime i stop at a service station on a motorway i usually have my obligatory burger king,a quick walkabout and a go on the space invaders or whatever else is in the aisle,gets me brain back in gear.Going to give Taiko Industries a call see if they can bring out a powerboat racing version,anyone with a gripe or a winge can take it out on the dual console,in the footee version you can be wayne rooney or ronaldo or whoever else you want to be,rewrite the software to include Scream it.co,,Swipes,Cinzano,Team williams,etc,etc,.You to could be a virtual champion,post your points score on here and make a league of it.Of course the R.Y.A. would have to get involved to measure the machine etc,.and bring out a set of "rules",i even saw two growm men on one coming back from essex yesterday playing two guitars and giving it large to Bat Outer Hell by Meatloaf on one of these machines,they looked a bit sheepish when finished and saw the crowd that had gathered to watch Could be very theraputic or addictive.
