I have to thank Butch the boatman for all that engine power. He builds a great engine. Mine has two seasons on it and He wants me to send it back for a refresh. I can't see doing that the way it is running. I will change out the carb black gasket thingys though before the next race.

John's boat gets most of its speed from the muffler.  Not the pipe, the muffler.  B)

Sorry I left out the muffler. It is really the secret to the whole package. It is the aerodynamics of the muffler that keeps the boat on the water and keeps the cg where it is supposed to be at the same time. Like jet propulsion the muffler exaust pointing to the right helps the boat make the corners smoother too. NOT!

Great muffler though.

Ya know I was gonna let this go but feel compelled to clarify, blame was established way back on page 4-

"....I haven't been racing the twin (or anything near that fast) since Atlanta, I was rusty & it showed. Never found my groove & my timing was way off...."

Did you read that part or just happened to jump in here? :unsure:

Maybe this would be a good time to institute turn signals on boats. :lol:
