Mistress Speeds

Nobody on the road,
nobody on the beach.
I feel it in the air,
the summers out of reach

Empty lake, empty streets,
the boat goes out alone.
I'm driving by your boatlift
though i know that you're not home...

And i can see you
your gold chains shining in the sun
you got your hair combed back
sunglasses on baby

and i can tell you
my love for AC will still be strong
after the offshores of summer have gone.

out on the road today
i saw a Cigarette sticker on a cadillac
a voice inside my head said don't look back
you can never look back

i thought i knew what fun was
what did i know
those days are gone for ever
i should just let them go and...

i can see you
your gold chains shining in the sun
you know your walking real slow
snarling at everyone

i can tell you
my love for AC will still be strong
after the offshores of summer have gone.

I never will forget those nights
i wonder if it was a dream
remember how you drove that mistress?
remember how the big blocks screamed?

now i don't understand what happed to our sport
now baby gonna get it back
gonna show what my Apache's made of...

i can see you
your gold chains shining in the sun
you got your anchor shade up,
radio on baby

and i can tell you
my love for AC will still be strong
after the offshores of summer have gone.

I like it...
 
i just read this entire post. I know christian well. He is a great person and even better friend. However at times can be a bit cocky, but hes smart and will give you the shirt of his back if your a good person. i know of a time when someone that was close to chris crossing him and that was the end. I am not positive but i bet that is the case here, and he just used this forum to punish those that crossed him.

I spoke with him 1st a few years ago about the set up of my boat as i heard he re-rigged his own boat and did some set up on others. we made 10mph just in the little things he suggested and he wouldnt take a dime, not even lunch.

no doubt his sutphen will run, i have been in it at way over 80+ very close to 90 not sure why there is even a bet. He could certainly do a bigger boat and was talking about a bad boy canopy 38 with 1075s and 6s but he liked the simplicity of the older race boat.

take the 30 days and simmer chris your ok in my book

Christian, aka Toasty, is guinely a nice guy --- and he was very, very suportive when my father passed-away last July. Christian ia A-OK with me too. And yes he is smart and a go-getter, I recommended him for acceptance to law school.

I do agree that name calling should be done face to face, not on a forum on the internet. 30 days in the hole. See ya soon Christian.

Don't know if it helps in your quest at all, but I ran my 24's today instead of my 26's on my Cafe, and felt like they blew out much worse while getting on plane, and obviously weren't as fast at given engine speeds once on plane.

Not sure it helps, but just thought I'd throw the commentary out there that I wasn't happy with that set....
 
Thanks Seafordguy, I have been running the boat with the 24's bravo 1 four blades with success and am waiting to try a set of 26's bravo 1 four blades. Did you loose any top end with the 26's? If all else fails I may see about going with Labbed BBlades... There were some good positive responses about them on this thread. Thanks again for all the help offered..

I "THINK" I run about 575 hp or so, and my Bravo 26's really seem to be the right prop. They will spin right north of 5100 and allow me to run in the lower to lowmid 70's in some chop.

Right now I am spinning the 24's @ 5600rpm's and running close to mid 70's I will have to try the 26's.
