Re: badbait---race

badbait--- ya otta bring me that stv ya got---lol..lol:beer:
STV's may not drive the same as Allison's but let me tell you this. You get a light one and put a lot of power plus a fast trim on it and you will have a learning curve and can get yourself in a lot of trouble in a hurry. The first time I streched mine out on the big end and decided to come off the throttle I tapped the trim down a couple of times and the boat took two skips before I could tap the trim back up. At a buck twenty I thought It was all over. The bow of the boat acts like it's on a hinge. One small tap can raise the nose a foot at speed. As long as I own it I will be the only one driving it. I just don't want to have to deal with anybodies families attorney. Once you get some seat time it's a blast. But you still need to be paying attention with any boat that's light and has a lot of power on it. Maybe I'm just getting to old for this.

I truly doubt it. Wiser, yes! As in Bud......................... Wiser.

The shed is all but done just need to get the gas turned on and phone system put in, should have a final on it next week. We have moved our office over, and now it's time to move my shop and 10 years of accumulated parts. That's going to take some time to get everything moved.

I would come and help move all that stuff butt, it's probably just Mercury junk. Worthless to me. Nothing worth stealing.

Whats the difference between Stuff and Junk?
My Junk is Stuff, Your Stuff is Junk! :very happy

Did some Gel Coat today, Red. I'll see Monday if it set up or not. :rolling eyes

Heres a pic of the engine getting an adjustment.

Gary, brb is Brian Branham from Kentucky.

Bill Smith must know Brian from the Tennessee rally or Jasper?

Anyway I seriously doubt you will see him at the Western Allison Rally.

Gary, you know the rules here about posting nude pictures. And if they are rude and nude, twice the infractions. :beer:

Gene I'm answering the anchor question over here so as not to litter the other thread.
Those OMCease blocks usually hang around the shop for a while, then as I gut and clean them I say a last prayer. Then off to the recycler. You can make a shi# pot of ButtLight cans or probably 1 1/2, 3.0 Merc blocks out of one.
