Rained like hell yesterday afternoon when I went to the bar with Steve Quick, Lee Austin, and Doug Kelly for lunch!!!! I believe there was 14 boats at that time and interviews with CBS Sports going on throughout the morning until the rain started and went back to hook up with Brett May interviews had started again!!!

Problem is, you say too much of NOTHING!
Thanks, for reporting for those of us that arent there.
Just curious what happened to the 3 or 4 more on the way?? That line has been used SO many times, just report the facts! Not the spectulation!

Alright I watched the race from the top of the cross walk from Bahia Mar to the beach....
Aquamania jumped the start and was penalized however it didnt much matter as in the first turn Geico went to the inside and was pinched by 2 super vees and AquaMania got hosed down and shut down a turbine....they were back up and running and closed the gap on Geico but didnt have enough to catch the lizard boat...4 Super Vees battled it out the 3 at the front were RockStar, HardRock,and Miccosoukee while Superboat was behind them ....The 3 battled for most of the race when Miccosoukee broke....leaving the other 2 to race with HardRock winning...RockStar split a hose causing some overheating but battled to the end....Gary Ballough and Throttle Up had a great race and traded the lead numerous times when Throttle Up lost a gearcase giving Gary the win.....In the P Classes Crazy Chicken, Simmons Marine, Daredevil, and National Guard went at it DareDevil dropped out right away and the Chicken and Simmons went head to head for the race and even had a little bumping going on in the late turns that put Dee Early in the water but he was alright!!!! Bat boat ran uncontested...Thats about all the head to head racing I paid attention to....
Pete I dont know how the photo thing will play out!!!! I will try to find out for you!!

Sorry, guys... Jax wore us out. After flying Sat and editing all afternoon for the party that night- no way could we get packed and loaded for a 6am departure to get down to Lauderdale in time for the race. Energy level was starting to run a bit low by then. :smash:
I'll catch up with you in Sunny Isles, Sean!
