Nah, Taz is making it sound more than it was, it was nothing.

Important thing is everybody finished the great 06 poker run all in one piece with no damage.

oh hang on... I seem to remember one boat that was badly damaged and didn't finish...

power heads will be striped and re built before they are run hard.works out about 91 running 1.87 at 7000 rpm with 28x14.5 whith 15% slip . just over an hour with 300 liters of fule how far and how fast up to skier.but the water is all flater when you are in front

Check it out for the tides wherever you intend to launch.

Back up ,,,, allow a little more fuel !!!!!

Now I thought you were made of sterner stuff than that Mike!

No staying power huh.

I've an idea.... can't you put something together for June 08 to fit RB4, and we could have a real battle of the British Bulldogs (Hulls) on our hands?


.....Blur Vs Oasis

............Microsoft Vs Apple

and the mother of all battles.....

..................RING Vs PHANTOM !!

Now we're cooking with Gas!


How about it?...You could team up with tubby Davis.

A 'Chaos' fact, or a 'Fuller' fact? they're very different.

Na, Chaos knows a few facts, but very few are of any use.

He knows for example, that Fuller only speaks fact, but knowing that fact, is of no use to Chaos at all. see what I mean.

My dear little Ginger Bear, your taste in music is apalling.....

An Apple a day ....is Good

I think you just dont geddit. There are two most different boats with different ethos trying to achieve similar ends.

and lastly I have the Weapon , tooling halfway there, I just need the financial backing to see it on the water with the right engines and drives, but mostly the right crew with the appropriate 'Killer Instinct'

Perhaps His Holiness could help to rustle up a team ??

And lastly you CAN quote me on this one...


'Racing aint fun...its deadly serious and you gotta be prepared to die in the attempt or you have'nt the will to win'

There are lots of Rich Kids out there and they dont like to be shown up when they have spent Big Bucks on all the right kit.

My epistle for the Sabbath completed ......


Just back from Earls Court and its looking good... Hope Y'all come along.


Mike
