You will be hard pressed to run with DoubleJ in Whatever boat he brings--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
51 here. Ordered my first Allison(XR 2002) in 91(I was 30 then) new and picked it up at the factory. Ordered another new one(SS) in 2000 (I was 39 then). I disagree about having to be old to buy one new. Heck you just got to be focused in life and be successful in your career field.
I'm focused and successful Double J, just not $80,000 dollar new Allison every 5 to 10 years successful.....but I'm working on it!
:banghead:same ole song
that day ,Been running with him for 30yrs or more he can drive and he will race anybody .He has got some seat time in Allison Boats.

65 if I can hold on until Jan. I think I've had five A boats , set the record at 57 , started drag racing at 60 , running Pro Gas in ODBA , came in fifth in points and only ran two races, what's up with that , had to either work or deer hunt and missed the other races LOL! Think I'm getting that old timers , I have to have my radio man at the Drag finish line to tell me when to get out of it , cause I can't remember if it is a quater or a kilo ?????? LOL!!!!!!
Just bullshitting as usual , it don't matter how young or old, just keep nailing it and have fun.

I grew up driving ALL different kinds of boats.
Decided early on that I wouldn't be happy unless it was an Allison!
All my friends had boats for several years & gave me a hard time for not getting one. I told them I was waiting until I had enough money saved up to get an Allison. After 6 years of putting up with my buddies..... I bought my first Allison in 1987. I still own it & it looks GREAT for a boat that's now pushing 25+ years!!!! Same boat - lots of different Merc's on the back!
I'll be 50 this coming Jan. 2013

I just got my Allison a couple months ago. I'm still trying to learn how to drive it. I certainly wasn't challenging him to a race. Think you misunderstood the post. I hope I can learn from all of you guys in the future. My wife and I are very excited to hopefully be at the rallys next year.

Congrats! You should post some pics. I'm not sure but I think there's not too many around. Thanks to Ocktane, SilverBullet, and my recent work on it, it has shined up like a new penny! And still solid as a rock. I hope to get a 2003 one day but don't think I'll turn loose of the XTB.

Welcome to the "Allison" family to both of you guys.
It's great to see the younger crowd get a jump on us older guys.
I'm sure we'd all like to see a few pics of your boats.
There's a lot of experience lurking here & everyone's good to jump in & help, so if you guys need anything or have any questions, just post.
