Will R raceing is raceing you don't toy with some body, thats when shit happens, i agree with you on your thaugths will, when you break like s&r did in peace that,s racing dosen,t matter how big a lead you have it,s going to hurt you. look at cromie in whitecourt last worlds hugh lead what happened broke. Anyway most of the people in the sport are great got to go.Later. |

There was talk that Cromie went through an impeller per leg! I think the impellers are custom made too, A-6 or some mumbled rumors lke that! Stainless prices went up in the US as soon as Cromie picked up the phone. _________________ It was like that when I got there! |

I asked Cromies Nav man about it and he mentioned they went through 12 I think and that was before the last day so add one more. Pretty much one per leg !
and racing is racing but if you had a ten minute lead with 50 miles to go how many of us would settle in back and cruise to victory ?
Will any time this summer to take a run up to the falls ?? Let me know and I'll come down for a night and maybe bring you a copy of Rapid Runner II ! _________________ If you ain't hittin bottom you ain't jetboatin! |
