I am sure I could found a set up that work, but i made lil improvements all the time, so every time i took my lake boat to the races, i had to throw out all my old data from previous races. whatever you do, try to have fun with it!!! Racin can be very stressful, especially if you dont have someone helping you out. I have a great group of family and friends that help me keep my head straight, and make sure the boat is ready between rounds.

That's the plan Josh, we gonna have fun doin it. Where ever the 468 puts me I gonna run it for a bit and over some time build another engine.. I got a lifeline with the boat and over the winter I'll get the other safety gear needed to race. I'm gonna keep this boat a race boat in race setup, it's real light and it won't be seein much river time other than sum test trips. I'm pretty cash poor right now so it's gonna take me sum time to get the boat out but I hope to make a KY lake race next year if everything goes good. The boat is pretty well ready to go for engine to be set in, I'm gonna go through the pump this winter and then just a few minor things that need to be fixed. The boat set for several years so just really needs sum TLC.. If you have any gear your lookin to get rid of give me a Holla. Thanks

Keepin an eye on this....

Well been workin on boat alittle at a time !!!! Got the pump fully polished (minus the suction housing) and picked up a nice SS MPD Fully Race Prepped impeller .. Doc ran a Agg Bronze, witch I have but I like the SS impellers .. Not sure witch 1 i'll run, I'll have to talk to my pump man Sorry I didn't get a pic of the pump but heres the impeller

Next season will be here before I know it, so gotta get busy on this thang .. I wonna paint the trailer, gotta get the 468 freshen up and dynod and pump finished up, and get the the boat ready

Nice impeller!

yes winter will go by fast and it will be time for testing again.

All this racin goin on at BB might have to drag Hick Life out there. Sounds like just about everybody in the crew is gonna be running 500+ CI motas, should make for a good time
