get on it we've only got 6 weeks

I read this yesterday and sat back in my seat and really thought about it.....i never put it into perspective....theres just not enought time.

The bottom of this boat is a mess. theres a lot of hook in it...not a big deal? yes, it is. After talkin briefly yesterday with Jack, it just reassured me how much trouble i can get into with that bottom...and the fact it has a lot of hook in it will make things much worse for me.

Yeah, I can 1/2 ass blueprint it myself since I dont really know what im doing, but also, I need a turn fin...and while its getting its belly rubbed, i might as well set up the intake and keel for a ride plate.

Also, not to mention the amount of money I will need to make this happen...the motor isnt complete...the pump needs to be rebuilt....i need cables, steering, guages, seat, helmet, jacket, foot pedel, apba reg, entry fee (remember im payin for ricks too)...

so much to do, but so little time.

trust me, im not discouraged, but reality check says chances are that i wont be racing at ming, but I will continue to bust my ass to get there.

kyle and i are signing a new lease on another garage in the complex tonight....its a 2 car garage....we currently have two 1 car garages.....we are trading one of the singles for the double for only $30 more a month.  :o

this will give me more room to work on my boat while his is being finished. We will be moving everything starting friday night.
