Nice pics...looks like Darin might have been suffering from "cat envy", based on the size of the other cats in the pics!

Still need to update your signature Tyler.

OH, No... Not even close... I came up with a bit of a motto for the event... Based on the idea of people needing to race/have BIG toys because they might be compensating for a lack of something... I race smaller boats because I don't have to!

Honestly... I race what I can afford to be successful with. The $$$ involved in those larger boats is WAY out of my league!

Of course, there IS something to be said about the work and attention to detail required to make a SMALL system go 70+mph... :)

This looks like it was a LOT of fun.

This looks like it was a LOT of fun.

Terry, it was.

Next time around, I think we all need to bring our flag of origin, and fly them like at an F1 event. Kris Flynn inspired that idea, when he and Aaron hung up their Aussie flag!

[Kris Flynn]

Aussie aussie aussie!!!!!

Great event for sure...very well organized and all the best guys to hang out with for nearly a week!
