Be sure to click on the four that are not showing. They are worth the effort.

They would not populate so I changed the ext. and they show as they are.

It's good to see you back in the game Geoff! I'm sure the boat will be over the top!

Funny that you say this. Have you checked the retention rate of RDP lately?

It's nice and dry in those photo chops. I was actually working on it today (first time in a while).
Everybody went to Bass lake today so I'm Jonesing.

The best wake up call ever!!! The number of boats in the call was truly outstanding. I was already up, but those who weren't scrambled outside quickly. The sound of all those awesome boats coming up the river.........

These look like the handy work of Jerry. I can't imagine anyone else doing this.

Are there any informal V Drive gatherings during the weekdays
At Parker when you can cruise around
And also check out other boats.
I play at the lower river area but would like to take my flattie to Parker once in awhile. Hauling and dealing with 2 boats is a pain.
This has been the best thread on RDP
In a long time!

"Original owner Bob Hogan raced it in the late sixties in the Pacific Northwest. After only three races, the boat was permanently garaged after he witnessed a friend's fatal crash during a race of a similar, but less powerful, Sanger. It was a decision that likely saved his life. Used only in three races. Motor complete and prepped to race. Alcohol-based stock motor produces from 800 to 1200 horsepower. Exceptional, original boat with top quality components. Original style trailer with period Cragar SS wheels. One of the most magnificent period drag boats in the world, mated to its equally magnificent SOHC pull vehicle. Of the only 200 or so "Cammer" SOHC 427 Hemis made by Ford."
