Hi Ben, with my computer skills I would prefer an 8 X 10 mailed to me along with a check for 100 dollars. I will plan on 10 pictures at 100 bucks and the total cost should be 1000 bucks. If it is more, I will take up the slack. Rod
Ok then I will get the picture & check sent to you!
So far I have pictures for the poster from HILL RACING, JIM BEST and BILL REITER (who simply sent money to support the poster, Bill, if I can cover the costs of the poster with out using your money, I will return it to you and we'll have a beer together)--Other folks who have "pledged" are Maximus, Kolby, Buchanan--that leaves about 4 spots on the poster left but I am playing a first come, first served type of operation.
On another note, several of GN-24's pit crew called for rooms at the Blue Water Casino. The registrar said she never heard of the Blue Water Enduro on the 20th of October. She gave them a rate of around 85 dollars and a confirmation number. If you call for reservations, take names and get numbers! If you recall, we had problems with reservations last year and the year before. With rennovations going on and only half of the resorts rooms being available, it could get messy again this year! Recommend you call during business hours when you can talk to a "heavy hitter" instead of the night clerk. Rod
What about my pledge after the April Spring Classic at Parker ?

Jim, you are on! Your pledge is good and I am saving a spot for you--get a good picture. Rod
Well, LARRY LOOPHOLE is at it again. Another outboard question, concerning modifying the lower unuit. The rule states; "THE CLUB TYPE, ROUND NOSE UNITS MUST BE LEFT COMPLETELY STOCK EXCEPT FOR THE WATER INLET HOLES WHICH MAY BE PLUGGED AS DESIRED. METAL (J&B, MARINE TEX, BONDO ETC.) MAY NOT BE ADDED NOR REMOVED TO ASSIST WATER TRAVEL TO THE WATER INLET HOLES." Now what is there that cannot be understood about this? The idea is we want you to run the lower unit as it comes from the factory except you may plug some of the water inlet holes if you like. No, you can't cut them (water inlet holes) out, you can't enlarge them.You can plug them. You can't grind on the lower unit, including the skeg (safety item). You can't even "fatten" the unit if you should so desire--IT MUST BE LEFT STOCK
JIM BEST-I am unable to send a personal message to you. This is an improper forum but don't know how else to get hold of you. I received your check and pictures for the poster. Forgive me and please help refresh my memory--with regard to the pledge--You were going to take pictures at the April race and send one for the poster--but I already have pictures--so, send me a message and tell me exactly what you would like me to do and I will do my best sorry. Once I get this straight, I will erase this message. Rod PS I can accept personal messages or by phone (310) 488-3563 Jim Best called and said that the "pledge" came from
Jim Rich. Jim Rich, I now have everything squared away, and straight in my mind--I tried to erase this message and it would not delete, only edit--so unless the administrator erases it for us, we are stuck with it. WE ONLY HAVE 40 ROOMS AT THE BLUE WATER THIS YEAR--FRIENDS OF MINE CALLED AND GOT ROOMS FOR 85.00 WHICH IS LESS THAN THE "SPECIAL" LAST YEAR. ROSS ALSO SAYS THE ROOMS SOLD HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS YEARS PRIZE MONEY, WE JUST DON'T HAVE THAT MANY RESERVED.
I can delete it, but why? Seems to have some good information....Ron

El Hombre, I understand your concern. Rest assured that the boat, or boats, that we plan on running in Div IV are in no way in the same league as a Stoker. The boat, or boats, that we plan on running is strictly a V bottom cruiser. You are correct, a Mod VP boat can run well over a 100mph with a 525cid engine. Our boat is definitely not in the same category as a Stoker or any other Mod VP.
We have discussed running a couple of boats with Rod. I have informed him that there is a possibility of running multiple boats. One of the boats that we are considering running would definitely fit in Div. VI. We in no way are trying to "skew" the rules or play unfairly.

Race fans, I will be out of town for the next few weeks but I will try and keep in touch. My computer "out back" is really slow so I try to stay away from it. The river is rising and I have old boats and motors in my basement that I donot want to see get wet. If you don't get an answer promptly to a question you have, please call me at (310) 488-3563. Rod
