Don't let dem Yankees rut up our race track before Saturday! <_< . My OLD sport 40 has 2 wins in a row. Sounds like it's going to be really tough to make it 3.

Mikey Looks like you guys had a great time.... See you in June. Going to bring up a few New boats. Atlanta nats was Hard on the ole ones....

 

[Ken Hildreth]

Chuck and I had a great time. Like Scott said earlier, we didnt get quite the results we were looking for, but it was a fast water day and the competition was great. Chuck and I was talking on the way home, and in the Joe Rood Final, which all six boats finished the race in. (which was cool) The Bud boats finished according to their age, The newest boat Ryan's Bud, to the oldest boat, My Bud, which we thought was Ironic. I thought about my weak points on the Round nose Bud, and think I learned something, (actually remembered something that Marty Davis told me years ago) and an Adjustment is going to be Made for June. You Know, I dont know what year both bardahls were, But the boats may have finished first thru sixth according to thier age. We had a blast. wanted to stay and race another day! haha Ken

 

[Ken Hildreth]

Hey, ya know what? What happened to all that smack in the round nose duel. That Injun and the fleet of Bahdals had a tough time with Da Bud!! That Mad Injun had speed, But the Bud could do it for six laps right side up!! well, this time, anyway. Sorry Mikey, had to rub ya a little bit.

Who had a "Bud" for breakfast Saturday morning??? And a chew for that matter. First heat win of the year and was pushing the Bud for the lead in the final before it went lean. I really hate puting it on a shelf for the year but like Mikey, I got a ringer that just may put the hurts to Chucky and Ryan Hobby this year.

Oh Ya! From me and James, THANKS FOR A GREAT WEEKEND EVANSVILLE!!! We didn't bring home many trophys but considering the company we were in I think we did pretty good.

 

[Ken Hildreth]

haha,

OH Yeah? Who put the spankin on you the next two heats and the final? Who put the Bardahl into retirement? THE BUD!! : haha, that first heat, Mike Z and I were having a blast battling for second. Those two boats were side by side for a couple laps, Looked cool seeing those round nose boats run. Thank you Evansville for having a cool class that you sure dont see alot. I had never seen six round noses in a heat till then. Let alone actually raced in one. Wes, good luck with the new Madison, it should run like our Bud, it has the set up and the prop. Ken

 

[Grimracer]

Guys,

As you can bet the Scale racing was supurb. I sure have alot to learn but the Old Bardahl was starten to get its groove on. Seeing the old dogs make laps together was very cool.

O yea.. SORRY MIKEY FOR STEELING PTS FROM YOUR TUNNEL GUYS.. h34r: :lol: :lol: True enough there were some fast sport tunnels there.

Along with Bob I to was using 2.4 but mine was the Futaba FASST in my 3PK and 3CVS. In all my boats (I ran 4) I never had one hit, fart, pop or glitch. SOLID AS A ROCK..

Its a leap of faith man.. But what a leap...

Nice racen with ya Bob

Take care guys..

Grim
