-
also with limited rooms please get rooms asap they will go fast
-
Hey guys I am new at this but this Lake Anna Regatta sounds like a good party, how do I get involved.
-
Ole War,
Basically you just need to get a room reserved for the nights that you would like to be staying. For now, just the date has been set. Other ideas and activities will begin to fall into place shortly.
-
I will keep my eyes open for this and I am sure it will be fun. I should have my boat together by then and I am only a couple of hours away from the lake.
-
Hey guys,sorry to say that none of the (DVBRC) will be attending the first event.We have our first race of the season that weekend in Sunburry Pa. My bust for not attending the BBQ... I know I blew it.Anyway that should open up about 2 dozen rooms for some other boaters. I'am still hopeing to attend, I'll have to ask if there's another Race official that can work the finish line,(lucky me gets to judge the Races)...Till then HammerDown.

My home terminal is on I-95 + 322 in Twin Oaks Pa.(can be seen from I-95) It's a massive,massive lot full of cars, trucks,suv's, just waiting to be delivered to dealers in N.Y....(lucky me!)

Yes Sir,I'll be doing the rebuild...thought I would be building a 572 motor for it, however that aspect of the job (may) have to wait? The cylinde walls look great on my 468, I'll just hone and re-ring,hope the crank and such are ok,some small pits on one of the cam lobes,but all the lifters look good.Still hope to yank the rest of the motor and pump out this weekend...If I'am home from work!...But no I'am not looking foward to laying on my back,out in the cold...F%$KING with the job of setting back the pump.Oh well we do what we must do...HammerDown.
-
I'am just starting to relize what a big job I'am starting...working 70 Hrs. a week,and I have to finished by May....Damm,I hope we do get a short lay-off.

Whazzup Nitro,
Long story about what Chet mentioned. I did a brief description in that same topic. Check it out. Do know what a "zit on the ass of progress" is? If you don't, it's Chet.
To my boat,
Trailer JUST getting back together. Like you probably know, Holidays really bung things up. Motor complete on stand. Boat STRIPPED on dolly ready to go back on trailer then to paint shop then reassemble it. I'm just nervous about having it done in time. Will you pray for me? LOL
I'm gonna keep bustin'!
Take care

Hey guys how are water conditions at this lake? I have a C&H Hydro that i run on the river when its not toooo terribly rough. Also what about law enforcement? Blown BBC. Have over the trans bassetts,no water, no baffles, and circumspect registration. Hard to register a drag hydro here. Have 2 friends from Charleston who have already made resrvations. If we dont have a race that wknd im going to come also. Race boat is a Kurtis 500 hydro
-
PE857,
You and I will stick together, my hydro runs a blower motor with zoomies, if we get in trouble we'll blame it on each other! LOL

-
The lake let together sounds like fun. But there may be a St. Louis race that weekend. If so I plan on getting a little bite out of that pe857 blown alky. If no race i'll take some of the C&H that may be a little easier.I may be by friday pe857 if so i'll call first.
