  1. Nice job Larry! What was the magic speed? I spoke with Terry today. I heard you farmed 3 :eek:
  2. Nice job minnow! What time were you out?
  3. Ordered them today We should have the same seats.
  4. The riggers are not mounted yet. Besides....I forgot, and left the camera on the boat
  5. I had the boat put in the water today around 3:30pm. I took it for a test run around the lake to burn the fogging oil out, and it ran well. It was really windy, and the forcast was for 3 - 6' waves. I have a really bad itch to catch a fish, so I decided I would set a couple of lines and try my luck. I had 3 lines set by the time I hit the end of the inner pier. I just cleared the end of the outer break wall when I took one over the bow. Not wanting to bounce around in 3 - 6' waves in the rain and gusty wind, I pulled the lines and headed in. There will be plenty of days this summer to catch fish!
  6. Mine is going in today. I may try and do a little fishing. Depends on how the lake is.
  7. You can drill a small hole in the inline boards and insert a glow stick in them. Then you can see where they are at after dark
  8. Batman won the racing, and Captains Curse won the freestyle.

There are a lot of expensive shops in the shops at Caesars Palace. This last image was taken from 31,000' flying back. It is some kind of fault line or something. I am not sure what state we were over. We are purchasing our tickets for next weeks show next week. We will have the same seats.
  11. After the freestyle competition was over, they brought out 6 Grave Digger trucks at once for an encore performance. It was AWESOME!!! After the monster truck show, we spent the next couple of days seeing the sites. Here is Hunter and Wyatt in front of a statue inside Caesars Palace. MGM Grand Casino Hunter and Wyatt again. Photo down the strip.

  14. I enjoy taking my sons to the monster truck shows every year in Detroit. A year ago April, I talked my wife into letting me get tickets for the Monster Jam World Finals in Las Vegas. We purchased tickets for the whole family last April for the show. After almost a years wait, it was finally time to go on 22 March. I watched the weather on the 21st, and was hoping it would not interfere with our flight on the 22nd. At the terminal they announced they were waiting on weather conditions in Chicago before we left. Someone made the decission, and the plane left the terminal around 6:05am and taxied to the runway. We took off and began our climb. There was a lot of turbulence. After another 10-15 minutes the pilot announced the deicing system was not working, and we were turning around and going back to Kalamazoo After a bumpy ride back, we slammed into the runway. Yes, I said slammed. I have flown on at least 10 commercial airline round trips, and also have 6 traps on an aircraft carrier. This was the hardest landing I have ever expierenced! We hit so hard, I thought the landing gear would break, and the plane would crash on the runway. We get to the terminal, and everyone gets off the plane. We go up to the ticket counter, and there are no more seats on any flights to Chicago, and Las Vegas. The girl doing the checking starts checking for alternate routes to Las Vegas. She finds us seats on another airline that leaves for Cincinnati at 6pm and would put us in Las Vegas at 10:45pm. She gets us are seats on the flight to Cincinnati, and tells us she can not get us our seats on the connecting flight yet. So....we went home and waited for the evening flight. We catch the evening flight and arrive in Cincinnati only to find out we do not have seats on the connecting flight to Las Vegas. About now, I am really getting P.O.'d. Well....things happened for the better, and we ended up getting seats on the plane after all and got to Las Vegas. We had purchased Double Down tickets. These were tickets for a private pit party, bar-b-que, and qualifing. Only 5,000 double down tickets were sold. This made it really nice, because we were not elbow to elbow at the pit party. Here are some of my pictures from Monster Jam and Las Vegas. Left to right, Wyatt(2), Hunter(5) and my wife(Cindy). This was Grave Diggers 25th Anniversary. He had a special paint job for his truck at the show. This is Wyatt and Hunter with the truck. They had Maximum Destruction in the air on a crane. This is an underneath shot of it. Maximum Destruction We had FANTASTIC seats for the show. This is a picture from my seat. Maximum Destruction winning the round. Grave Digger beating Captains Curse. Batman beating Grave Digger in the finals. Iron Outlaw doing his freestyle. Destroyer broke his wheel off while trying to do the double jump in REVERSE!
  15. Great post Rich! Maybe I can make it over one of these days for a lesson.
  16. Just a reminder to everyone that last years license expires on Saturday. You will need your new license on Sunday.
  17. I do not have it rigged yet. I was in Las Vegas last weekend. I worked on it for 4 hours yesterday. I buffed it out from the rub rails down. I still have the top to buff out. I am planning on doing the top when it is in the water. The boat in front of mine was put in the water this past weekend. I can have mine put in any time I want now. I have one more thing to do before it goes in. Hopefully I can finish it this Saturday. Its suppose to rain this weekend, so I am going to hold off on putting it in until next week.
