First of All, very few people have the balls to run up front. Kevin has plenty!! We spun out and it was all my fault, it happened because we were not pushing anymore. We had it in cruise control and our bow caught a wake from the big cats and around we went. Congratulations to the pirates...

Schleussberg!! Kevin will have a better driver at the next race!! Jupiter will be awesome!!! Hope we get some bumpidy bumps as our friend Joey Gratton used to call them. We will be testing next week if all goes well, I think with the Kildahls (sp) getting their boat dialed in and all the...

This past weekend I was reminded why we all love to race. I was reminded why we chose to spend our hard earned $ to put on our jackets and helmets and strap in. I was lucky enough to be invited by Kevin Smith and his team to join them in Solomons. Let me tell you all I was treated like a rock...

Awesome story and future offshore racers!! Great job!! Wil

Congratulations Jim and Tyler!!! Could not have written a better script. Jim works all winter long, builds a new boat! Wins in his home turf !!! Fantastic job guys!! All the crew and especially Jim!!! Wil

Awesome photos as always Pete!! Wil

I have one if you have not found one yet . Wil

Paul, I am on my iPhone , I can't see any video tho. Wil

Kev, Everytime you hear that popping sound in the video, I think it's three times in that first lap is guardian. If you pay close attention in the second set of turns there is 11 seconds that we are down and you will see a puff of black smoke! That's Larry resetting the computer by shutting the...

Georgie, You remember when we tried to hold lanes thru first turn? I think it was only for a race or two in OSS. I know we did it in 05 in Corpus Christi. I never understood that, I know boats are different than any other form of racing but is this done in any other racing scenario? Wil

This brings up a very interesting question which I think it would be good to discuss , not argue. When is it ok or legal to move over ? Is the over taking rule in play or is it the overlapping rule? Hope this can be an educational thread. Wil

Mike, We have not met but I want to wish you a speedy recovery!! The boat looked fast! Hope to meet you in Sarasota !!! Wil

Paul, We even got his autograph!!! I believe the answer is simple. Steve's idea is the only way to police the engines!! The question is will the Sacionting bodies use the technology and inforce the rules. I for one will order mine as long as we have a commitment either from the class to police...

Brucee, Mercury never rebuilt it, all they did was replace one valve and springs. I agree with Paul! Wil

Frankie, I have to disagree with you on this. I believe as far as 525's I have the oldest engine that has not been rebuilt. My engine is an 04, making it 8 years young. It has 89 hours. If the RPM is cut back these engines will live forever ! I do agree that at 6k and running them at 6k , you...
