Results are up sorry for the delay the "road" part of this marathon is wayyy too long. Takes a while to get together & approve the times for release. |

Thats great Arthur but there are only 23 left in the hunt without penalty. Can't believe Chad ran that fast with an A motor, should have had it from the first. Maybe he would be leading. In the past if he doesn't blow something up, he usualy wins. |

Hey guys, sorry that i couldnt get my shit together and be out there to show you all what these things can do. My engine failliures were 100% my fault and in hindsight, i should have not entered the race but instead did some more testing and tuning, the pressure and long nights got to me and I wasnt thinking straight. Im veryhappy for Whitey and I never doubted he could pull it off. We were hitting 118mph in PR in the circuit in some very rough waters. That was the boats 4th real time off the trailler for a run. Looking at my graphs i was only using about 1200hp and had 1600 on reserve I just didnt have the boat tunned so I wasnt feeding my pump enough water. Im sure after many hrs of testing Dale and I will reach speeds like Ryan was seeing in PR rumor was 142.9mph. I know Dale did see speeds in excess of 130mph already and his boat is in its early stages of development too. _________________ Bulls Eye Enterprises Inc.

Right on Felix....I know you tried hard and wanted to complete the marathon with what you had. Sucks it cost you some dough, but we all appreciated you're effort and I must say that you have the baddest boat in the sport HANDS DOWN! Trust me people when I say the pics only do it half justice! You have a new fan here! |

Gord finished first(mass start) followed by Dale who mucked up his start, weavers are pacing thereselves and I'm pretty sure Dery pulled in fourth. It's raining like a bugger still. |

Talked to Dale for a quick min, he says his boat is working great but he needs to figure a few things out to get the holeshot. Circuits start at one. Should mix up the times a bit! |
