Before you beat up Kevin too bad on the internet... how many times have you flipped?? Cause I'm thinking your engine has had it's plugs removed and roped a few 100 times more than once....

Gee David and Dave I think I sound like a Mom or a Mom!!

Only twice...and the first one wasn't exactly my fault...we accidently put the motor up as high as a j (which is pretty high) and then I tried to go wide open in the turn and scoot up...the prop came out of the water and it spun...that might have been me...im not sure, but even my Dad said that it was the height of the motor...the second one I will admit was my fault...very stupid...but I havn't done anything bad this year (yet), and I've already been to 3 races. Kevin has been to 1 and flipped. He is also on his second boat in 3 years and counting. I almost went over at Jesup when my motor halfway came off and tilted,( ) but I managed to keep it upright and finish the race. Don't want to jinx myself already, but I was learnin last year, and now I sorta kinda might know more of what I'm doin...this is Kevin's third year, and he flips an average of I think 3 times per year...he's good he's just a lil rough...if you know what I mean...

Wd-40

Here is some information you may find useful.
>**************
>I thought that you might like to know more about this well-known WD-40 product.
>When you read the "shower door" part, try it. It's the first thing that has cleaned that spotty shower door. If yours is plastic, it works just as well as glass. It's a miracle!
>Then try it on your stovetop... Viola! It's now shinier than it's ever been. You'll be amazed.
>The product began from a search for a rust preventative solvent and degreaser to protect missile parts. WD-40 was created in 1953 by three technicians at the San Diego Rocket Chemical Company. Its name comes from the project that was to find a "Water Displacement" compound.
>They were successful with the Fortieth formulation, thus WD-40.
>The Corvair Company bought it in bulk to protect their Atlas missile parts.
>The workers were so pleased with the product they began smuggling (also known as "shrinkage" or "stealing") it out to use at home.
>
>The executives decided there might be a consumer market for it and put it in aerosol cans. The rest is history. It is a carefully guarded recipe known only to four people. One of them is the "brew master." There are about 2.5 million gallons of the stuff manufactured each year. It gets its distinctive smell from a fragrance that is added to the brew. Ken East (one of the original founders) says there is nothing in WD-40 that would hurt you.

>~WD-40 attracts fish. Spray a LITTLE on live bait or lures and you will be catching the big one in no time. It's a lot cheaper than the chemical attractants that are made for just that purpose. Keep in mind though, using some chemical laced baits or lures for fishing are not allowed in some states.
>~Keeps away chiggers on the kids
>~Use it for fire ant bites. It takes the sting away immediately, and stops the itch.
>~WD-40 is great for removing crayon from walls. Spray on the mark and wipe with a clean rag.
>~Also, if you've discovered that your teenage daughter has washed and dried a tube of lipstick with a load of laundry, saturate the lipstick spots with WD-40 and re-wash. Presto! Lipstick is gone!
>
>~If you sprayed WD-40 on the distributor cap, it would displace the moisture and allow the car to start. (If I knew what a distributor cap was, it might help)
>
>~WD-40, long known for its ability to remove leftover tape smudges (sticky label tape), is also a lovely perfume and air freshener! Sprayed liberally on every hinge in the house, it leaves that distinctive clean fresh scent for up to two days!
>
>~Seriously though, it removes black scuff marks from the kitchen floor! Use WD-40 for those nasty tar and scuff marks on flooring. It doesn't seem to harm the finish and you won't have to scrub nearly as hard to get them off. Just remember to open some windows if you have a lot of marks.

>~Bug guts will eat away the finish on your car if not removed quickly! Use WD-40!
