thanks Doug for the nod,,what are you doing this year ,,has anybody talked to Simmons yet,?
IMO,
As the season approaches, I think we should start communicating with every owner of an SVL. Some teams will do more races than others but it would be fantastic if we can all get together and race 2 or 3 times this year with 9 plus boats.
I do not know Jim Simmons personally but have only heard what a gentleman he is. Larry and I look forward to meeting and catching up with all friends.
Georgie, do not kid yourself, you are the king of speed.
If there is enough interest we can get together .

it won,t do any good,,the new rules say ,,if you rebuild your own motor and it dynos over 550 ,,your illegal,,but MERC seals have no limits ,,i,v talked to a few merc people ,,and it,s not out of normal to see 560 thru 580. and by now we all know the MERC seal story,, .talking to Willie Ros and his is 580....to mention one,,,,,i,m not whining ,,i,m just not eligable ,,it,s ok ,,I still wish everyone good luck and be safe,,and i will help ANY OF THEM,, we will meet on the race course sooner or later,,
arty::cheers2: party on,,George,
I don't know what conversation I told you that my engine has 580 hp but I can assure you it has nowhere that HP. Having said that I think 550 HP is on the low end.
Hopefully we can all get to 3 to 4 races and race all the other SVLs. Get those engine sealed and lets go racing!!

Wil,
I think you will see a few SVL in Cocoa Beach this yr. I think Sarasota would be a great site to try and get a strong showing for the SVL , be nice to see 5-6 boats going at it.

Actually Randy,I do! been doing it since I started racing:leaving:
Frankie,
We will be in Sarasota and I agree with you. We need to get 8-10 boats there and I believe we can.

sORRY wILLIE ,,i talked to a lot of people about this subject ,,i remember your rirht you said 566 ??, sorry about the miss quote,,but the fact still remains 560 thru 580 are within merc limits,,
i don,t know what mine will dyno at,,but it,s not worth all the work to r & r for one race,to dyno at 555 and still not be eligable,,it,s ok I,m still going to come to biloxi and root you all on ,,and have a few beers with Mark and Jenni
