Due to inclement weather being called for this weekend, I am moving the meeting back one week to the 23rd. Its the following Saturday, same time, same place. Hope to see everyone there.

I know that everyone in my district does not use Facebook so I wanted to post this here as well. Meeting will be on 02/16/2019 @3pm. location is Buffalo Wild Wings, 14466 Potomac mills rd, Woodbridge, VA 22192. I need the 2 voting members from each club present. Meeting is open to all members in...

will the large size fit a gas cat, mono and sport hydro? would I need the extra large for a thunderboat or will the large work for that as well? Just want to make sure I order the correct sizes. Thanks, John Crouch

All signed up and ready to go, Wish I would have a cat in time for this race but don't think that will happen. Looking forward to running with all my good buddies of D12 and meeting the guys from D1 that come down as well. See U guys in a few weeks!!!!!!

Sorry Guys, I wont be at this one. New job is consuming me right now and my dad just had surgery on his arm (he broke it above the wrist) and what time I do have I am spending helping mom with him and doing stuff for them. Plan to be back in full swing next year in all my usual classes and...

Oh I agree, 100%, Ron... You guys rule when it comes to tunnel boats. I just think it would be neat to do something a little different. Still love my gas boats, I wont give them up......And I don't think Mackie will fall for the Rope-a-dope any time soon either!!! LOL

Having a good engine and pipe will help with speed, but proper setup of the boat will help you finish and win races. it takes time and more time running a boat to get it to run its best in the pack. I also recommend that you run with some others while testing as well because a few more boats out...

the conquest is a great cat hull. Chiili's son is running my old one and loves it!!!!

Ron, sorry I missed you and your crew at that race. Always a great time when your bunch is around. great people and true good sports as well. I hear that Jimmy Johnson wants me to drive one of his Nitro tunnel boats next year, so you may have to let me show you the old "rope-a-dope" , next...

The Vector is a very good running Gas Mono for either heat racing or offshore racing. the downside is the Ugly Cowl that is needed to make it legal for offshore class (I cut mine off just past the cockpit part of the cowl. They basically took the cowl for a Conquest and modified it to fit the...

As much as I would like to, the answer is no. New job is taking a lot of my time this year to get it right. Not only am I there lead dlesel tech, I am also dispatching and running one of there 2 repair shops as well. I am taking a trip to Dearborn, MI the last 4 days of September, I wont a trip...

I agree, great job done of taking care of the points for the District, Chilli!!!!! Hopefully next year I can catch all of the races and be a contender once again.......

I have to agree with Wayne. Been running Amsoil Dominator for many years now with either pump gas, coleman fuel and now with VP SEF 94 fuel. Never, EVER, had a failure that was caused by a lack of lubrication. and those that know me will agree that my boats are no slouch, either.....

Pete, thanks for taking all these great photos! One of these days we will get you out from behind the camera racing a boat or too.

this is why my thunder boat wont be raced this year, by the time I get paint on it, driver and seat and numbers and sponsor it will be too late to worry about it. It does amaze me how many people run open offshore with out either a windshield or driver figures in a mono. That was why I ran a...
