Who ever said you couldn't dial in a boat long distance. Randy has been working on getting my stock 280 with 260 electronics ready for the drags. Can't even begin to tell you all the things he has done. In my class I can not break out of 12 seconds. The best the boat has ever ran was ONCE 11:97 with a 390 hp Merc that went down 6 times in less than 40 hours. Boat ran mid 12 with two different 260 (this is a old heavy 2003) Any way first time out with Randy's setting the ECU and sending me one of his drag props 12:01 TWICE!!! I have always started with engine tucked clear down. I was leaving 20 thousands on the clock before breaking starting line lights, leaving on first number that came up (9). Second day I trimed the engine up (I took a stop watch and found by saying "one thousand" it took exactly 20 thousands of a second. Went into the race and trimed the engine up Cut a perfect light .006! I was ahead of the other guy so far I shut it down so I wouldn't break out (flopped around a little). Next run I drew club champion (I ran him day before and he red lighted). What a race I beat him by 3 feet!! Problem I red lighted by .004 Damn and he broke out, Great time and can't begin the thank Randy enough. Saw Lars and a couple othe Allison guys there. Hoss props work on Allisons. Headed fishin for the rest of the week. Later guys
