Eddie:
First things first...try SPELLCHECK or Hooked On Phonics or something.....PLEASE!
Secondly, are you one of those guys that has a 100 mph jet boat...but has never been on REAL clocks to prove it or are you like every fisherman in Texas that has a 90 mph Bass Boat?
Cheyenne
I dont know you ar what you run but i would be willing to bet i will saw you off like a dead limb so mind your own.
Cyclone
It went 9.30 at 118 mph.Not bad for a brand new boat right off the trailer with no setup at all and blowing the tail at half track.
Busby
stop posting and get to work on the boat so we can go to the river this summer! :rollside:

Gary
yes, it did have a fuel motor in it. I`v talked with em many times while I was designing the bottom of my hydro. Nice guy and he was really open with me on what he did and what he had.
This is the boat

Jet Hydro
This boat is " Rated X " owned by Bill Henderson and driven by Don Yates.
The picture was taken at Lake Ming in 1976.Don crashed on this run in the finish lights after it took 3 or 4 bad hops.Don was not hurt.The boat was built by Sanger Jack in Fresno,Ca. Ron Pitts
PS When did you talk to Don Yates ? He passed away in 1995.He was my best friend.

A pilot friend of mine once told me "Never take off without a place to land". I find much wisdom in this.

Don't take too much away from old Cheyenne 372 or as I know him, Gary 1 R. He's got a nice little Papp Cheyenne with an injected BBC and it's a pretty stout piece. I have a little Placecraft here that runs 7.70's at 134 mph out here in 4000' air. The only reason it doesn't run faster is because of something about a capsule being required. It's amazing with a little sea level air will do for E.T. Not knocking it, just wish we could get a little of it out here.

Busby,
Would you classify the above as being arrogant or just plain being an a$$hole?
Just need a little clarification for my own piece of mind
Gotta hand to dj for typing what's on his mind
