Not sure how that happened since it came from your leaders mouth!

Banks Lake, Not sure if I'll be there or not. It's not real fun being the only pro boat, and running against D stocks, and FE's when they show. Might come and pull rope though.

p.s. Guess I could bring my new c-mod version 7.3 and let Josh Harnack test it and break it in for Moses.

I'm looking at a boatless first half! Too much messing around this winter. The flipper boat is for sale cheap while I put the ski boat together. Chicken,? Maybe or just old and worn out! Josh should do well, great kid!

WORD!

Dave, there are some fast fe's out here, but everything is progressing in the fact that with the newer technology available, all classess are gaining good ground. There have been big advancements in the PRO catagory in the last few years with the availability of new motors/parts etc.

Now y'all are skirting the question ! Torque is more you say, but how much faster than lets say a decent FE ? Curious because I something in mind about a boat working !

I am not doubting a 350cc is faster than an FE, by all means it dam well better be !!! Just looking for a ballpark. A decent FEH will run in the mid 90's. Base your guestimates on that.

Dave, without getting the insurance people's panties in a wad, lets just say you should add about ten to your number above. Make sense?

Thanks !!

Perfect ! All I wanted to know !

Let the insurance folks get the panties in a wad, they are all such tight people they have to wear thongs to keep from looking like they are bunched up !

But that my friend is a whole other thread. One I am sure would offend some.

NBRA Nationals Centrailia IL. July 8 - 10

For those of us from the wild wild west, please advise of the name of the lake, and closest hotel info for this race. Is there a sponsoring hotel we should stay at?
I assume we should fly into St louis, drive the 50 miles to Centrailia but where do we go from there?

Thanks
