                  Thanks guys; been a long build & I can't wait to get 'er wet. I pulled an on-call shift this weekend so I need to sneak out mid-week, although some rain's coming. Jan, I'll call 'ya if we could hook up mid next week.

                        Thank you sir. Out of respect for all you've done for us FE guys, I'm putting the Grimracer sticker on the very rear of the sponsons to make it more visible to the other racers

                          Tony, that sticker will scare the hell out of other racers.

                              Great job, Tony! I've seen Pat's run and it's an impressive hull.
