At least every one could see the fancy paint job on the bottom. That one looks like The Big Dipper, Thors Belt and I see Uranis over there.:gasp

Lou at least you didn't have Darris Allison walk up and tell you "That it was the first time I saw both sides of one of my boats in one pass." He was talking to Wayne Taylor, rip.

Kind of like what travis Tuttle did at Smokin in the cove.. his seat broke loose when he turned to see if the motor was straight.. he forgot to trim down.. this is what 24 volt trim.. trim timer.. and starting with the nitrous on does......it was stood almost straight up at one time.....

this was took by the track photographer....




and this was my view ..
this wasnt fully stood up yet when i took the picture...

Lou don't fill bad, I've seen it happen to some of the best. 2 things I try to remember
when I'm hanging on the rope...is my steering wheel clocked and trim angle.
