[dale]

Perfect day today to bad this weekend isan't our boat day :'( were hoping for the best here.

 

[CySlyde]

ya know hes thinking of excuses to tell his boss on why he is taking half a week off on such short notices

 

[MarkScott]

PJ, just think of the Toledo trip as a warm up drive for the 2004 InterNats ;D

Update: the Red Solution will be at the Oct. 18th run The Sport 40 may or may not make it now.. Each boat I'm bringing will need to be dialed in.. The [SIZE=11pt]PINK[/SIZE] boat has a 'borrowed' SS motor on it, the RS has a motor from a Fool 8) I know, and my 3.5 powerhouse has a new WOF..

OB Nut Racing: ONE MORE WEEK!!!!!

 

[Ron Olson]

Things are looking up for the weekend. I've got another set of wheels sitting in the driveway that we might get, a GMC Jimmy SLS. Brenda says that it won't get any Nitro or oil stains in it if we do buy it.

I ran today with 2 WMU students at the Toxic Pond, helping them getting their boats going and drove a little myself when I had a chance.

Sounds great Ron. I just got done installing a new radio box in my tunnel. It has a lot more room than old one did. I am really looking forward to this coming weekend!!

 

[CySlyde]

well guys it looks like i might not be able to go :'( but the good news is i finally got transfered outta the store i was in just found out today, unfortunatly my new boss though extremely cool as she is doesn't know about the deal my last two bosses and i had regaurding the 18th, and she's on vacation till friday.... but trust me i'm going to try and get ahold of her or someone else in scheduling power so that i can still make it.

-I didn't work every single weekend for thwo months just to rest now!

Well the days are drawing near,it's looking like alot of people are going to show up, i talked to a guy today who races every week ,who said he's going to be here,plus 3 of his friends , they'v been raceing for years, so we should have some experts , to give us some tips Were still hopeing for calm water for the big pond,were going to need the room for riggers.well can't wait to see everyone ,weather is looking ok :- maybe we can all hit Toni packos for dinner sat night.

 

[MarkScott]

I just finished getting all the boats & equipement ready. Tomorrow it's the trip up to Michigan.. Won't be bringing the Sport 40 :'( but will have enough to have fun with

Mark...

 

[Ron Olson]

OB, we gotta get together to figure out a time and place to meet at Saturday AM. About the only place that I know of in Coldwater is a Restaurant on M-66 off I-69 on the SW side. We got the SUV troday but I'll probably be driving the truck.

 

[dale]

;DWeather is looking good 8) bring your sun glasses.Sunny and 60 for sat, cant get any bedder than that. Still not sure of the wind :- were going to set bouyes in both ponds so we can run were ever the croud wants to go.don't forget the camera and vidieo tape, i want to get a group picture this time with all our boats so we can post it ,and let people see all the fun were having.and there missing ;D Juice and i will be there at 9:00 , were going to have a sign posted so you no were to go when you get in the park, or just stick your head out the window and smell the nitro it should lead you right to us. ;D ;D ;D

 

[CySlyde]

ron you should get some of those shaped rubber mats for the interior of your new ride... help keep the missus happy. I had them in my last s10 man those things are like a rinoliner for your interrior... saved my capet from staining a couple times. hehe plus there easy to wash with the hose off the house

 

[MarkScott]

We are in G.R. (well actually up in Greenville typing this) now.. Will be over at Wade's tomorrow.. His group and us will most likely head down from G.R. on 96 to 23... Ron, doubt we'll head down 131 to K-Zoo, as this will add time to our travel distance.

Most likely post more from Wade's tomorrow night..

Mark...

 

[Ron Olson]

OK, I'll probably take my regular route down there. The map I have shows that it isn't too far from the Seagate so it should be easy to find. I'll have to leave around 6:00 PM, I'm working on Sunday.

You never know, maybe we'll see you on 23. We're leaving early, about 6:00 AM to get a head start.

 

[Dale]

Can you guys give me some estimated times you think youll be here, i can give you my cell # if you think your going to get lost.ITs easy to find get off at frount street off 280soon as you go over the bridge, vere to the left,past the fire station along the river,stay in the right lane to first light turn right, up to stop light,theres a sign right there pointing you to the maumee bay park, youll go right past the refinery, watch your speed, 35mph all the way to the park, wounce you see the gas refinery your 5 minuts away.

 

[wswatzell]

Dale, I plan on leaving GR about 7:00am, so we should be there no later than 10:30.

 

[CySlyde]

anybody wants i got some time off in friday in gr.... tho i might have to head to kzoo fri night.... still no word on schedule, but i'm working on it, prolly won't know anything for sure till friday afternoon.

-crossing fingers and praying to the gods of boating that i can still go!

 

[dale]
