    I sold a drum of Nitro for Scotty and Mary a few weeks ago. Nice folks having fun with their old boat!

    Is this wise??? Sounds VERY dangerous to me. I thought that after a certain MPH a capsule was required??

    165 capsule is required.But i dont think this boat will do a full pass i think it is half track at most more of an exhibition

    Robert is correct ... Mary and I spoken about her going in the water and she is just going to make some noise and cruise it about 80 down the water ... no full passes, she has way to much time and $$$ invested in the restoration. She's more there for the memories and fun.
    Plus it's fun sitting there with them in the pits listening to all of the old stories ... Her and Gene Deaver were telling me some great ones lat Sept.
    I'm looking forward to seeing her out there again. She is also bringing an old friend with the Poachers nostalgia fuel dragster ... should be more cool stories. :rollside:
