i have no pics or vids of my boat, it is the best it has ever ran ! just hoping someone got something for me.sure would appriciate it . thanks, turbo wog
Hey Paul, good to see you on here! I checked and the only pic I have is you resting up at the bar . . . Maybe Bret took pics but he still needs to develop.
Your boat hauled ass this last week, your hard work paid off. I even heard a lot of v-drive guys say they were impressed.devil
Let me know about July 4th, maybe I'll bring my John Deere's out so we can try them out.
thanks haulinass, do you think you could post the vid or send me a dvd or something? i have no pics or video of the boat ,sure would appriciate it, thanks again ,turbo wog
I'll see what I can do to either get the videos posted or make a copy of the DVD. Funny thing is, every race that my son filmed of you, you won. Now that's a DVD for the collection.
Nice boat Paul, that thing hauls ass!!! devil
Paul (Turbowog) is what you would call "an exeption to the rule" . . . .
Even though Paul has a jet boat, he has spent a lot of time helping me and others out and ignoring his boat in the process . . . he is a great guy to have around. I'm sure you too would like him.
Plus his boat hauls ass.
So I guess you could say he has been adopted by us v-drive guys (or maybe he adopted us), now all we need to do is convert him . . . . devil

Paul is a good guy, he even yielded & let me have the water a couple of years ago.
Even though he was sleeping in a van down by the river (Or lake as the case may be).devildevil
Speaking of video, BT273 has video of my limited time on the water & he won't return my calls (maybe it was my impersonation of Herb yelling at him) Anybody on the mountain in hear that can go give that boy a bad time???
thanks lsr! sangster , i'll let you get a good look for the first 1/8 mile...or more.unchained do you have any pics of the headers? what size turbos fit on them? i just put a bigger carb on with no boost gain !! i found my cam card & it shows 60 degrees of overlap .is that alot for a turbo motor?

thanks quickjet that would be really cool i appriciate the compliment. i've been working on it so long . now that its running fairly good, the seats & carpet are shot ,gauges are braking etc.
thanks morg, i dont live in my van, just to clarify, ha ha .. smash too bad , thanks anyway , i guess ill have to get video of it going faster then i am hoping to do some work on it by 4th of july . more shoe, rideplate sideskirts ,adjust valves, vent block better & fix the screwed up distributer. its locked out worn out on the inside ,msd sent me 3 packages all wrong partsstst
unchained, what turbos are on the headers in the pics ? is it a 2.5" ,3"outlet from the compessor? a/r ratio?what kind of boost did they make? what are you running now?have you tried othercams?my boost is only 11 , 10 last time out with baffles,no waist gates no blow off holes in the turbine housing. my cam is 714 lift, & 358 duration in /254 deg ex @ .050 ,lobe center 114. guess i gotta check some things.
morg did i race you ?the boat in the avitar looks like a boat i raced on fathers day! yea it was real close....for the first few seconds .i had to check my e-brake ,but i didn't have one. i would guess it was @ 125mph boat or so
Last year on fathers day I was out screwing around on Friday night when you were on the water. I was doing circles, did you line up with me when I was coming out of a turn? I never saw you
I do remember when I was cooling off you were hanging out next to shore. I really thought it was cool of you to let me have the water.
Last year it was nowhere near 125, but flattery in the v-drive section will get you far.grngrn
This year I had little time on the water before I hurt her. There was a jet out with me on Thursday, was that you??
is your boat white or blue? i race a white one with a color line down the side , two colors & it changed in the middle . i have the yellow twin turbo. no i didnt line up with you last year.
If I can't get the videos posted by the 4th, I will make a copy of the DVD and give it to you when I see you at CFW. I'll be there from the 3rd to the 5th.
Oh you don't know how good you guys have it with CFW being so close. I figure I should get all the CFW trips in that I can before the Hydro guys fuck it up for everyone and it's gone........
Hey Morg, did you get her put back together? If so and you guys decide to make the trip to CFW on the 5th let me know,I think I can do it for the day. Later, Mike
It pulled a head stud. Old block, the bottom 3 threads were rusted out. It is heli-coiled & ready to go back together.
There are a couple of video's in peoples camera's that can't seem to make it on the boards.
