Taco'd "a person or people that show up with one lake lice and a family of 50 and cram 3 people at a time on it with no disregard to boating rules or ethics. Usualy crap in toilets and throw shit paper in trash cans. Hang out at the boat ramp like its a swimming hole. Have zero insurance on anything they own and dont give two shits less about your property."

Not meant to be a thread jack here --  I forgot to post this and wouldn't know where anyhow.   Don't Taz me bro    :o

I remember visiting his "garage" a few times when I was building hot Mopars back in high school and college.   He always had some cool things to look at and a good story to tell.  Real nice guy he was.

DONALD PAUL ERMSHAR CHAMPION DRAG BOAT RACERPROMINENT RIVERSIDE ATTORNEY Don was born on February 16, 1943 in Los Angeles, California. He passed away on August 27, 2009 at Kaiser Hospital in Fontana, California as a result of injuries sustained in a boat racing accident on July 12, 2009. Don was surrounded by his wife and family. Don was an attorney in Riverside for 37 years. He had an active practice at the time of his death. Unknown to many of his clients, Don was involved in some form of drag racing since the late 50's. In the early 70's he began competing in quarter mile drag boat racing. In 1980, Don and Phyllis made the move from amateur to the professional ranks winning 10 High Points Championships along the way. Don is survived by his loving wife Phyllis. They were partners in all aspects of life - worked side by side in his law practice and owned the Lucas Oil/Mako Force Top Alcohol Flatbottom Race Team.  A memorial service will be held on September 14, 2009 at 11:00 a.m., at Crestlawn Memorial Park, 11500 Arlington Avenue, Riverside, California.

 That is one bad azz boat !!   Busby gave me a tour of it last season, and its one of the best built boats I've ever seen.  Truly an amazing boat ! 

 It was crazy how fast all the boats out there where running Sunday.  Seems like every time I heard was almost at or above 100  :o.
Welcome to the club of broken boats :o  Pay here$ bend over and move along.

The problem with America is stupidity. I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?
