          What will I do for the sport next year

          I have put together (4) OMC J Motors for use by the new Region 10 HARM (J Hydro Building) drivers for 2007. I have (2) Runabouts and (2) Hydros available as well.
          I do need restrictor plates.

            I'll Do Something.....

            Jeff Kelly, four OMC "A" motors....really cool.

            I found one and Doug Martin bought it.

            Are you making the carbs like the "RACE" 15's??? Or what are you doing there..??

            I found three good blocks the other day, but Dawe and Connant "Sucked" them up.

            Do you have a price, say I send you a running 15, to make it into an "A" Motor??? AS in SoCal, four strokes are "IN" and trade in aren't bringing much CASH...and there seems to be a need for motors..ALWAYS...

            An OFFER: Anyone who wishes to send me their number 2-3- or 4 prop, I will make them a new one, like theirs or one I think might work and I'll let you try my prop. If you want to buy the prop, I'll sell it to you for $250.

            I will continue to SPONSOR the 48 boat is 45 SS and SST 45... John Lane has driven my 45 at Indio, Long Beach, San Diego, and Parker..I offered him the ride for next year.

            Ernie Dawe is building me a HYDRO to use to give TEST RIDES at Races and Antique Meets...pictures in the near future...


            ADD: Hey, how long until my Team Member 2007 gets posted???

                      Are you making the carbs like the "RACE" 15's??? Or what are you doing there..??

                      Ron,
                      I only needed one carb. Bought it off ebay, bought throttle parts from John Myers. I do not have a baffle in this carb. Does this make the carb illegal?

                          ON THE CARB: I was TOLD they needed the baffel to work right, but have not knowledge myself... I bought steering bars and throttle parts from someone here on HYDRORACER... I would HOPE th carbs aren't illegal...Maybe, it shuld be cleared with 14-H and ALL.....

                          What Vic and I are doing...He's making th "PLUG" and I will make the MOLD and castings. We have been friends since June, 1966, Vic and I are OLD SCHOOL and still like ROUND EARS. We'll both be working the castings...

                          Steal "SECRETS"!!!! I know everthing there is to know about good props....You test and test and test and test and you race the best one!!!! (Doesn't matter who made it)...

                          Vic has made some great wheels....we have worked together on various "Projects"...

                              3/16" ??

                              Tim,

                              Might I suggest you retain ownership of the beautiful prop you intend to race on your Konig lower unit by drilling out to near 1/4" for a shear pin ? We use 6MM. I have sheared every 5mm I ever raced in the Hatchet units. To much torque for them. 6mm holds up well. Funny how 1mm makes such a big difference.
