well GT.
as much as i would like to i dont even know where it is. and if i did it would probably be a good 1000-1500 mile drive. hehe. living in oklahoma.
would be nice to watch.
hell i haven`t even started on fixing my boat. not even sure i will be able to work on it this year at all. have the time to but that little stumbling block called money is stopping me. hehe. even though i can probably do most of the work myself and so save money.
anyways thanks for the second video also. i imagine it cost a pretty penny for that engine. i know just looking on ebay and such they go for 40-60k and probably more. would be nice to have that kind of cash. hehe.

I hear you on the money deal, btw races in Canada, Idaho, Oregon, Washington, Mexico, New Zealand and California.

From what I have been told from the horses mouth so to speak, Tim has over $100,000 in that little toy (the turbine powered tunnel boat).

If you ever end up being in the Northwest in June, give me a call, good times...
