Well ... I'm still hung over and it's almost 24 hours from the ending of the 1st annual x-mas hit squad at Lake Elsinore yesterday ... I have 50+ pictures & videos that i will be posting ... but it was cold (well ... cold for us Calif. boys & girls ... something like 50 degrees) ... but we had a lot of fun!
Chris (cs19) was nice enough to pick me up at the house and take me along ... Ross (RCB19) was there with his clean ass Rogers, Chris's buddy Grant brought out the Caliber 1 stereo, RIPPINGNOLEGSKROKER had his bitchen twin turbo Shiada out there about 2 hours early ... but had to cruise after a while, Jordan (FuelInMyVeins82) was right there by my side as the only two there who's boats are torn down ...
It was a total blast ... everything from nursing hang over's to start off ... running the channel, making passes in Coors Light Cove, getting pissed off at two stupid seadoo guys, watching skydivers & running back at sunset ...
What a way to get ready for x-mas week!
Here's a taste of what I got ... our ride back to the out ramp:

Rad video. i think the sound truely does it justice though. theres nothing like it. Funny thing is you know we will nursing the exact same ****n hang over next weekend.... Guess we truely never learn, oh well i can live with that. :)
-
Ok tease where are the rest of the pictures and videos?
-
Thanks for posting that video. Onboard footage always rocks, and that was exceptional. Can't wait for the rest of the footage. :cool:
-
Looks like fun. Too bad I didn't get to go boating. We got near 4" of rain in Santa Cruz this weekend. I can't wait to get home.
-
You should be up for the "HARD CORE" HoatBoat awards. Its only die hard boat fans that put up with that kind of cold just to go boating.
Chris, whats with the smoking?
Why don't you guys call me in the spring when I have thawed out.
BRD
-
BRD,I have wet headers and I use a manual switch to control the on/off. I was turning it on and then they pulled up next to me, so I turned it off.what you were seeing was steam.
my engine doesnt smoke. :)
cool vid Brian, thanks.
-
Chris that sure looked blueish, like oil. But with the color of that water it could have been just that. I didn't know your race boat ran water to the headers like a Lake Boat. J/K :cool:
Great video !!!

-
trust me jim,its steam.
From the green water makes it look blue. I know your engine is fine.

AWESOME VID !! That's the old "You gotta want it" cool weather vid. I can remember years ago going out and wiping the frost off the old tunnel ram. True boaters !!
-
SWEET,.......more please.:D
-
Me being a newbie with only one summer under my belt, I have to say that was sweet! I need more speed.....but I guess I better get the money tree growing first. How fast were you guys running?
-
Very nice..... I wish I would have known about this I would have loved to go out.

Damn Busby! That's cold anywhere going as fast as you were. I e-mailed that video to my girl at work, here is the response I got back. :crossx:
"That's just insanity! I enjoyed that it was titled "Christmas Ride," as though it was some leisurely boating excursion around the lake and not some death by water race on the lake! Craziness." LMAO

And of course ... we can't forget our friends from Blythe:
( we saw this when getting dinner at Tom's Farm)

What are the specs on that Schiada motor? What kinda numbers is it running?
-
I'll be doing some video's later after cleaning them up with movie maker ...
Ripping's Schiada was fast ... once that thing spooled up the boost ... he was haulin' the mail, that's for sure!
I'm sure he'll post up some info on it soon.

Wasn't sure if Danny would be able to come out and play ... something about a family get together ... wife wouldn't cut him loose ... ???
but it was fun ... the whole lake to ourselves except for a couple of damn Sea Dooer's

Dunsmore built 509CI, TT EFI,Approx 1200 hp@ 14PSI,running 114 Octane Top speed never verified but guessing 107-108. Knarly midrange punch. Always a jetboater @heart but this boat sways the vote a little bit.

Isnt the cove a no wake zone? :)

Isnt the cove a no wake zone? :)
Yeah ... but when you have the chance ... and there isn't a sole on the lake except for you (lake patrol included) ... sometimes you have to just do it ...
plus after seeing all of the fun that Mike, Todd & Dave had out there doing it ... we just had to.
Wish you coulda been there ... it was a blast. :D
-
i dont know what you're referring to. todd, dave and i were at a different lake, in a different county, that has different rules, that had no no wake zones, that has police but since they have better things to do, they do not patrol the lake. We were perfectly legal yes sir.
