(yawning) aaaaaahhhhhhh 20 sec later here comes Gino with a 1/8 mile to go
let me work on my list of excuses as to why i wasn't as fast as PUR PLATINUM
-Had to much fuel
-The OL cut me off
-Ate peppers for breakfast..had upset stomach
-PP jumped the start
-Didn't have a good line
-1.24 killed my acceleration
-Got tricked
-PP has fixed videos that were fabricated
-only 39 pitch mercs
-I couldn't keep the wheel straight
-Myboats not fast enough..oops..I mean my boat was going 220 at the end and really moving
-couldnt turn any rpms
-i needed more power
-should have left my 1.35 in for acceleration
-blah blah blah
All very valid problems if you are just looking for an excuse as to why you got WHOOOPED
What's funny is even with all my excuses that all are true and most my mistake- we still made it through the bridge fiirst. Next year tell everyone the run is until you stop or break, not to the bridge. It will stop a lot of bickering.
It's Ironic you want to bring up excuses! We have never - ever run against each other that you don't have an excuse why you didn't beat me!
2 years ago in Jax,
We smoked you for the first time and blew up your motor trying to catch us.
Islamorada 2009
You came up and challanged us,
We pulled away from you. You tell us you had people in the boat so after we got over 165 you deceided you wanted to take it easy and you backed off.
You told Albert you lost fuel pressure on you 93 octane motors. When Albert and Larry confronted you together you stood there with your "deer in the headlights look" and said it was both excuses.
Remember you called us the following Monday morning and You asked us not to post anything becasue Peter from Skater was really mad?!!
Jax -2009
you supposedly broke a belt we were first through the bridge as you stated, was the challange!
Now you want to justify how you ALMOST won. And WOULD HAVE if it wasn't for your belt breaking.
You know what's really sad? You have worked so hard and spent more money then probably everyone else in the Poker run world. Lets see,
You Built Ballistic- Didn't run fast enough so you "did something with it"
Bought Keith Eickert- Couldn't build motors that run. Pulled the plug
Built Gold Digger-Didn't run fast enough so you "did something with it"
Built Chief motors -I heard you built Tommy a house in you back yard so he can work in the boat around the clock.
I'm sure it's worth it since the motors- RUN ON 93 OCTANE!! (just need to mix a little 110 and methenaol) BUT STILL RUN ON 93!!
But the sad part is with the MILLIONS of dollars you spent you still can't get the boat to make it 11 miles to the bridge! :sifone: :sifone:
It would probably save you a ton of money, a lot of aggrevation and work if you just hire a photographer, put him on the bridge and you and your buddies drive though with your hands in the air.
You guys will be able to sit around for years, drinking and looking at the picture and congradulate each other how you were first through the bride.
No one has to know other then your boys, that you were the only boat. :sifone::sifone::biggrinjester::seeya:
THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS IS RIGHT HERE!
