It seems to be pretty known that Travolta's been seen more than a few times hanging around the gay boy spas in Hollywood. Then he sues anyone that points out the obvious.
Saw Travolta on a documentary about the 747. He was whining that he "isn't rich enough to own and fly his own 747"... He is just a normal guy like the rest of us with a 757 parked in the driveway :rolleyes
Just renewed mine. Haven't had a ticket for 4 years, all I had to take was the hazmat to renew. Taking the tests is a joke, it is the whole DMV experience that blows. If in the future you have one instance that you need the CDL, you'll wish you'd spent that 3 or 4 hours to go to the DMV and keep it.
Nice! That is my old boat. It is flashed, if you plan to run it hard a squirt of AV gas helps. Half tanks, driver only GPS'd 91-92 mph. More than 5 or 6 on trim gauge will prop walk. If the oil injection warning comes up, clean the pickup in the main reservoir. Great boat, I miss it. :thumbsup
Some videos... Still on relatively low boost until I can get the fuel pump voltage turned up. Running in the low 130 mph for now.

Thanks guys :thumbup:
Going to run it again this weekend and turn it up. Ran the crap out of it for 3 days with no problems, I thought that was a pretty good first outing.
When that SUV was parked there is a huge iron or aluminum block in the front full of 200 degree water and oil, a trans underneath full of heat, 20 feet of hot exhaust lining the underside, and it is all strapped to and surrounding the cabin of the vehicle and it takes time for that shit to cool...
Oh, cool. Did you see where one of your Military/DOD brothers in an F-16 plowed an 80 knot Cessna over Charleston scattering the wreckage from both planes through the underlying neighborhoods? Luckily, he ejected! Everyone else got killed, but the F-16 pilot is fine. Thank God for his superior...
Ahhh, you fly.. You should know that "rule number one" is to immediately commit suicide by nose diving directly into the ocean rather than putting it down on the beach and hopefully surviving! :rolleyes
It is aviation speak for "You are putting a $1,000/hr plane out of service for the duration of your stay, and the owner of the plane is likely not the pilot of the plane"
The engine is closed system. It still has the water pump intact. There is a water to water heat exchanger mounted under the seat and it is fed off of jet pump pressure. The intercooler is also fed of the jet pump. Keep the shit out of the block and run 180* on the thermostat. :thumbsup
So, finally mocking it all up in the boat. Couple more small brackets to fabricate, and we'll tear the boat apart to window some aluminum and send it all to coating.
Cool. Mod power! :thumbup:
I will dig up some of the hull pictures. :thumbup:
Intercooler. All the room in a boat vs. a car allowed us to use a relatively big cooler. Should keep temps in check real well.
