    Article: Key West 2014, Stock Outboard's Present and Future?

    The SS fleet averaged 77.61 on Wednesday Risky Business averaged 62.59. Friday the fleet was 84 and Risky Business was 71. As I said, it was not a fair test for the motors. Based on absolutely no factual evidence I suspect a 32' boat would have been about 6-10 mph slower. Currently I have no dog...

    S-29 Talbot Excavating comes alive

    Great effort by a professional team. Somebody who knows a lot about it said the Wednesday and Friday races were no accident. Preparation and more preparation.

    Miss GEICO Flyin' high

    This is racing. Mark and Scotty, At some point years ago I remember engaging in a conversation about you and how racing yourself was not racing. That was a while ago. Sunday in Key West you made me sorry I ever had that conversation. You and many others showed what it is to be a racer in 2014...

    Article: Key West 2014, Stock Outboard's Present and Future?

    The conditions were not great for a 28 even on Wednesday and Friday. The Risky Business guys are a too savvy and experienced to tear their boat up for nothing. My read from most of the Stock guys is that they don't want to go slower. The 200XS's (240 hp) might be an answer. If they can be...

    A new ride for the new season in SBI

    Can I just go race? Please? I think I want to Poker Run. Where do you sign up? Do they have dunker tests? I hate those.

    A new ride for the new season in SBI

    You are a cruel woman. Think you can handle the truth? Here it is. No new shirts. However, Lee is washing his jeans for our first race. He has a ripped old Steve Quick Jeweler.com t shirt to wear. Why? Can't make the shirts without a photo of the boat with lettering. Can't letter when the...

    A new ride for the new season in SBI

    All due respect.This is about my new race boat. You two belong in the fancy restauran section. I expect more from Race Control.

    A new ride for the new season in SBI

    Yep. It's a shame. That is a great venue with loads of local support. I hear nothing but good things about Biloxi. They rarely seem to get a huge turn out. First race of the year is usually not the best for attendance. We were just not ready this year or we would have been there for sure...

    Yes, working on that. I would love to see your ideas. Can you post them here? Not going to touch the free, cheap, inexpensive joke sitting here.

    Ready. I will report on the testing. Glass guy took forever for windshield work. I am very bias, but it looks bad ass. SQ

    A new ride for the new season in SBI

    I believe the number is 6 or 7. Who will show at which event is hard to say. I do know that going into turn 1 with all of them is what I race for. A semi retirement is reported to be ending and a super new team form the Carribbean are supposed to be almost ready. Fingers crossed. We will...

    Exactly what I am afraid of. If it's actually going to happen. SQ

    A new ride for the new season in SBI

    Test month will be April. Not sure exactly what day. We have a huge conflict with the Biloxi dates. Cocoa Beach should be the first race. I am hesitant to mention this, but does anyone else know about the Reality Show filming in and around SBI? I just filled out Bio and Team information...

    A new ride for the new season in SBI

    Kind of what I was thinking. I'm obviously not the engineer of this team. I do know he set out to build the fastest with the last boat which he accomplished. This time he want's the quickest.
