I finally stopped at the museum in Ocala my last trip to Florida, after passing it many times. Amazing collection of drag racing history. I never knew Don built a rail dragster with a GE T58 turbine. LT

I agree but just what was a "US" Coast Guard boat doing in New Zealand? LT

Great resto work. Thanks River for that video. Steve McQueen doing it in the desert. Don't you know the studio people had a cow every time he went out. Wish I had been one of the guys on the ride. Finished my 72 CZ400 and working on my 78 RM 125. LT

Odds are 999 out of 1000 it is not the first time for that asshole. The good thing - it was his last. Every shrink I have ever read says these perverts cannot be "cured". The cost for locking him up would have been 50K a year until some judge let him out, at which time he would be looking...

There was a time, long long ago, that women and men dressed with outer wear on the outside and underware on the inside. No self respecting woman would be caught dead in a shirt that did not cover her bra and bra straps. No self respecting man would wear underware above his belt. Yea, I...

Nothing like the feeling "I did that". Looks great -Congrats LT

Home is Lonview, Texas for Troy & the DCB. I am 60 miles down the road in Shreveport, La. The picture is Cross Lake which is inside the Shreveport city limits. Not really the swamp but it will be running in one shortly. One of the tweeks DCB did to the boat was a new motor deck lid. That...

After my buddie's F29 won the single engine class at the shootout, DCB took it back to San Diago for some final tweeking. Well it made the trip a week ago & it looks just as good in the swamp as it did in the desert. This was taken at another friend's place on our in town lake. He...

Havasu Barney once told me that same thing about you. LT

James has found a home on the Suzuki. He is comfortble and consistently fast with very few mistakes which he has not been before. His wins have come from speed and the ability to get it done in the first couple of laps. Do not count Ryan out. He has able to pull James in after making a...

She does take it seriously. The thing is those plants are all tropical and cannot servive the winters in north Louisiana, so - We have to move them all inside the building and put up walls to make it into a heated greenhouse. This is what it looks like from Nov to April. I cannot...

This woman has a seriously green thumb. She hates it when we call it the beer garden. Beer Garden :: 2012.mp4 video by LakeTrash96 -...

Stewart looked comfortable on the Suzuki and if he stays that way -- Dungey is the only one who can run with him but he just does not have the killer mode. That second moto he fooled with Allessi til Stewart passed them both. Then he closes and lets a bunch of lappers open the gap. That...

Wish I could be there. Dungy has my vote. LT

I once asked Howard Arneson why he did not do a Poker Run or two. He said he tried it once and found it was way to dangerous as way too many guys with too little skill got way to close trying to "race" with him. I am sure Bob Teague would have the same problem if he took his race boat out...

Troy's 29 is a very light lay up. Seems it was 1,800, hull, deck & tanks. I am pretty sure you can buy a 1350 for $140 - $145. I looked at building a twin turbo Hemi to make 1,500 to 1,700 hp. Just the crap mounted on the engine, turbos, intake, intercoolers, computer system etc. was...

I have been doing this go fast thing for a lot of years and have done just about every engine combination at one time or another - but -- After 2 days in the F29 - I have never seen anything to match or even come close to the Merc 1350. Dave had been saying this ever since the project began...

Rik my boy I was going to be nice and not mention the various rookie mistakes you made getting us going - but - since you had to get on my case - no - I will take the high road. LT

After two days with the F29 I will say it is the best single around the docks that I have ever seen. The shift is so smooth and the engine idles at 850 no matter what. Factor in the power steering and you have really easy docking. The boat ran 122 on the first run of the shootout and 129 on...

The 32 Skater was there but did not participate. It sat right there untill Rik & I took a ride and put it on the trailer. I understand it is sold to a guy in the Washington DC area. The boat has a real history. This is from '95 the first time I rode in it. It belonged to Bill...
