    Default I hope

    To make the rest of the USTS season this year, including Constantine... only a 45 minute drive for me, so I have no excuse !!

    Blue Bullets are always the fastest.........

    Tryng to talk dad into a 125.. without much luck. He wants to come sit up on the hill and Bull SH** with the good old boys. Ed T mentioned dad needs to take their 125 out, so I am hoping that will hook him again into the Alkies.

    Can't wait to see everyone again, been far to long since we all had a beer.

    Default One way to do it

    is to get a 125 rig and have your dad be your driver, we're having a good time doing it this way AND as an added bonus, you get to yell at him for a change
    Come to think of it, I've tricked Bruce into being my driver too (but I didn't yell at him, I'm too skeered of Shirley)

    Default Maybe

    Other Dave,

    I hope to in the future, just not in the cards right now to get another rig, I have all I can handle with the 350.

    Not sure if the 125 is fast enough for him though. He likes the near 90 all the way around. Might have to think about a 250 for him.

    If O.F. Christner would have stayed in St Louis, the building at 5th and State would have little meaning and boat racing, absolutely, would not be where it is today. O.F. Christner was my friend and I can tell you first hand, he dedicated his life to boat racing. Inside that shop at 5th and State, he lived racing. I thank Mr. O.F. Christner for sharing himself with us.
