Lambos are for pussies.Real Men drive Ferrareez,or Bugatteez.....:smackhead Nice Ship.:thumbsup
I will be towing the boat out to elsinore later today to check on an engine issue that was fixed yesterday.
Good catch, yes there were two. And, although he may not have let kids near them...my fiance was able to have her red cup in one
So I am trying to understand why that you call Bob a tool? It is his boat and I would think he has the right to pull it up to the beach for the night. As for your kid, I have known Bob for close to 15 years and you could not ask for a nicer person who would go out of his way to be friendly with everyone. I bet is that your son talked to someone else at the campsite other than Bob because bob would be the first person to open the car up and say take a seat and enjoy the view.
Seems like a cool dude to me. Sounds, and looks like he likes really fun toys an is not afraid to use them! My kind of guy. I like to see folks out using and enjoying their stuff.
I remember reading that he was going to run down Baja with this boat, and try to do it in 10 hrs! That's awesome. I hope someone does a write up on it and follows it all the way down.

You need to buy her a ring!
Welcome aboard. Try and ignore the hens and their negative comments.
What was the "engine issue"?
I'm amazed at the hate for someone with money and a big boat here. I was reading the thread about this boat over on PB and those people are just plain LOONY! Haters gonna hate!
Well, my posts were just poking fun. I don't know the guy nor do I care what he does with his Lambo. I'm jealous and if I had one I'd have a removable steering wheel and wear it like a medallion around my neck. :thumbup:
It's people like you that Dave is talking about :nono
I haven't read the thread yet but received a pm about it yesterday. Without even reading it I can guess with some amount of accuracy that this is the exact type of thing I was referencing in the other thread..

Just goes to show how many people really don't know what the hell they are talking about. One a DAy was pretty far off on this one as far as his knowledge on the guy. As for the OP maybe it was someone in Bob's crew that told the kid to not touch the car.
You need to go and read one of Dave's Thread's On the thoughts of one of his "influential and well to do people.."
Then you will understand.
"If they would just sit back and see that just about every topic takes a shit about 5 posts in.
It just took a little longer than 5 post to turn to Shit.
I've seen some guys/girls that come across as A-Holes, But 10min later they are very cool People.
And even some that have come up to me and say "Dam I kinda sounded like an Ass to Him or Her".
Sometimes you say something to someone,(Impulse) before you really talk to them for a minute.
But I don't know this guy or hav'nt meet him,
But would like to talk to him about his boat and get a closer look at it.
Awsome for him to have a Biss that allows him to have this caliber of fun.
I think he's a jackass tool for not adopting me since he doesn't have a son, apparently with all the tail aboard the boat he needs my expert help, LOL!!
Any guy that rolls a Lambo on the dirt roads apparently doesn't have a reason to be worried about peeps looking and touching his shit, as you said he would probably accommodate most request. :thumbsup

Saw the boat at Elsinore on Sunday and it was quite the sight; impressive.
I hope someone does a write up on it and follows it all the way down.

Put me in coach!!
Thanks for clearing things up Jeff, and welcome to RDP. Keep us posted on the run(s) for a record. Depending on when he does it, I may be able to take some pictures on the San Francisco end of the trip and someone else could take some pics on the LA end. If RD would rent a copter, I could photograph the whole thing. :thumbup:
Anyways, keep us posted, welcome again, and thanks for the info.
Yeah let me get right on that Helo Rental.. LOL
RD
Interesting,he will be be running with the some heavy competition from years back.Bob Nordskog ( no crew,alone non stop). Not sure,but could be a record still standing.Chuck Norris also.I think Don Johnson made a run at it . Welcome back Jeff.
Larry smith (scarab fame) holds the record right now from 05ish.
I want the on board machanic/camera man position .
There are some neat things happening with this boat in the near future, I will keep the board up to date as to whats going on. First up it looks like Bob is going to go for a record run from the Golden Gate Bridge to Los Angeles. Maybe we could start an over/under on how much time it will take.
If you want to be a mechanic-you need to learn how to spell it first,:thumbup:
I believe the run was from SanFrancisco to Long Beach.
Not one, but two Lambos. Damn.
Someone who can
Tank hey how are you? Bob should be able to beat the record. The boat does a lazy cruz at 90 to 100. With bobs rough water experience he feels very confident that he will take the record. I had bob on the phone last week with Dan at Archer Marine and they spoke about it
What's going on Jeff?
I have no doubt the OL is way faster than the 43' "scarab" Larry Smith ran in 05. My only concern would be reliability and fuel. Right around 400 miles is a long time to break crap and run out of fuel.
Of course as the saying goes - Amat Victoria Curam!
And Gary's correct. San Fran to Long Beach is the record route.
Tank the boat was built with 2 200 gallon tanks for 400 gallons, for the run, as we speak GT Performance is installing a 200 gallon temporary center tank that will sit in the compartment between the engines. Bob feels that the boat can go 500 miles. As for the engines and reliability they are the tried and true sterlings. On pump gas they rate at 1150hp and on C16 they rate at 1550 with the computer and pulley changes. Bob feels very good about making it without problems. As a cat you would be very surprised as to the good fuel econemy that it gets. We just need to load up the Ipod with lots of music and make sure the A/C stays working. He should have major sponsors lined up very soon for this. I know who they are but until the deal is signed I can not say. As for what someone asked a few pages ago about photo's I am pretty sure that a helo will be used for the start and finish.
