Yup! And the yellow UL-1 that jumped the red one!

While we are at it,,,what the hecks a "looky loos"

Don't think we have those in the civilized part of Kanada,,,,eh????

[Flying Scotsman]

Looky Loos are those people that come from Western Kanada and stand right beside you and ask how fast, what did it cost, where can I buy one, whilst you are running. I am not good at multitasking. Kids asking those questions whilst I am running I have a lot of time for, as that is what got me in the hobby

Standard answers;

Costs?=You can't afford it if you have to ask,
How Fast?=Between 0 and full speed.
Where can I buy it?=On the web, theres not that many places to look, its easy.

At our clubs formal race event in Sept. I got interviewed by RCTV for about 1/2 an hour.

At the end, they wanted to get some vid of my Rio 51 running, which they did,,,then near the end of the run, the host asks me to let him run the boat.....yeah ,,,,,right,,,,,here are the controls to my 55 Mph, 20lb Open mono (missle)......he didn't seem to happy when I told him no.

You knew what that twit at RCTV was looking for. I just destroyed a very expensive boat. Do not worry mate our insurance company will look after you, back to Tracy at the weather desk.
