Had a great time meeting everyone in Jackson. Im also glad to be home.....

Got some great shots there Mark, hope you guys had a safe trip back.

Jim Irwins new lower unit is the "shizzle" I ran it all weekend, works awesome. That lower coupled with Capt Vics, mounts are a great combination.

Im still exhausted......especially after the all night run in I had with the Australians. Its ok guys, I represented the U.S. mens beer drinking team quite well and hung in there till the end. I even heard that "Grub" was driving the porcelain bus, and decided to spew all over the place.....LOL :D That was the most fun ive had in a while, those guys are a GREAT bunch to hang out with, just dont have anything important planned for next day! I Enjoyed the Piss Up guys! wish you a safe trip back..

more later....

It was a blast for us as well.. Even though we weren't racing.. Going to this race has made both Mary and I wanting to race next year. Seriously thinking of building a pond out back.. :)

Mark...

Then turned back and I see this:

Run Kristy RUN!!!! :p

This is another example of how friendly boaters really are... The owner saw me take a pic and while I was taking the other boat's pic, he came up and handed Kristy the boat.. B) WOW Boaters are the best!!!
 
Very nice pit area / stand.. The Jackson club is very lucky to have a helpful city in keeping this pond open for boaters..

Can't believe I missed a shot of Wild Bill's twin.. I do have it on vid though.. Think a few shots are there, crossing over the camera's eye once in awhile as it went SCREAM'N by!! :lol:
 
Ya gotta love Bob Finn's Buttwiper. That's Ernie LeFleur's big ol' John Deere boat and it looks like Cody Sandifer's mono next to it.
 
Bumpin dis back up so everyone can get a chance to see, Mark did some nice shots here Dudes!!!! :D

A Naked Nemesis, Oh My!!!!

Tim and Josh Fulton's B Tunnel.

Alan......
 
Nice to meet you Allen! I left the pond and forgot to get my Mercury Race calendar from you.....maybe next year?

Allen put on a good show with his big tunnel (.67) finishing second only to Ernie Lafleur, thats a huge feat in itself! good job!

~James

P.S. let me know how Mikies engine ran on the stock tunnel.....good stuff for sure huh?

Thanks for the kind words James.

They anounced yesterday that would not be any open water for the sport tunnel. :angry:

So Alec and I got up at the crack of dawn to sneak down to the pond and test the Bud Villan. It ran unbelievable. Grim has been a great help setting his own backup engine on our Villan, what a great guy!!

For some of you that don't understand what is going on here. I borrowed an engine for Grim because our engine was completly stock. That's the way we have to run them in APBA.

1st round a second behind Grim, 2nd round 1st and 3rd round 1st with 1 bouy cut. Boy when Alec hit that bouy I thought we were done. :rolleyes: The boat went up on it's side and came back down and kept running.

Currently in 2nd, 50 points behind Grim with 2 rounds left tomorrow.

More to come.

Alan.......
