That was Rich and he was "technically" filming the actual interview.. LOL I had Mike grab the cell phone and film it as well as a back up.

I put the cell phone one up, because I wasn't sure how long it was going to take to get it online, and as you can see from the video he was a little "wobbly" already in the afternoon.. ;) :D

I'm with you on that, who the fuck is he, who does he represent and why couldn't he just back off and wait his turn ? :thumbsdown:thumbsdown

I finally got so frustrated I stopped watching the video, that shit is flat out rude, not withstanding the Riverfucking Dave aspect.

But to end on a positive Great Fucking Video :thumbup::thumbup:

I work for the studios and it reminds me when you have an action scene and you put A and B camera hand held to give it some life and energy and the operators always fight for position and cut each other off to get the best shot!!!!:eek

Likewise! And thanks! I thought my valve springs were bad but all it needed was a set of plugs. :thumbup: Now it's broke (a little) :D

I've been hangin out with Rich before all y'all and I've always considered him a good friend. When it comes to video he's amazing, when it comes to partying he's well,,, right up there with some of you guys. :D

My VERY small part in this 'Overhaulin' was to keep my big mouth shut (you see...sometimes I've been known to over-serve myself) and since Ryan was sharing my motorhome this Overhaulin' weekend...I was on my best behavior to NOT over-serve myself on Thursday nite and 'spill-the-beans' while headed for sleepy time before the big reveal. I could see myself three-quarters shit-faced and headed for bed and saying to Ryan..."Dude...wait til you see what's coming tomorrow for you from the Overhaulin' Dudes..." or some other dumb-assed drunken comments.

Secondly, my part was to agree with every request that Ryan made prior to the weekend. I knew the boat was supposed to be Concept Marine for a remote oil filter mount and other little work. When the the Needles show was coming up within a week or so...Ryan called and asked me to go by Concept and pickup his boat and bring it to Needles with me....."Sure Little Buddy...whatever you need! Call Concept and let John know that I'll pick it up Thursday at 1:00pm on my way to Needles..."

I am greatfull for friends like Ryan, Dirk, Billy, RCL, Jerry, Terry, Rick (Nutz), Steve, Armen, Hud, Bruce, Wayne and all of the NRKA Krew....luv all y'all!

Carl


PS. Froggy don't fix Krew...it goes with Billy's shop...Krazy Kolors......see how it goes?

Yeah it got fixed thanks to Wayne and an extra "non bushing" shaft seal that I happened to have in the truck. :D

I was able to make some laps out front of Needles Marina park and then cruised down to Jack Smith and made a little more noise and then came back up river towards the park. As I passed the park entrance I saw what looked like a sheriffs boat heading down river towards me so I spun a u-turn and aimed back at the marina entrance. At this point I'm thinking great, I'll possibly get busted for no CF numbers or registration stickers but he cruised right on by as I proceeded to head in.

Back on the trailer I realized the front blower seal had let go and got started cleaning up the mess and loading up the boat while Carl supervised. :)

I am still in shock and awe on this whole thing. It's amazing it was kept a secret. I wouldn't change a thing on the boat. It's perfect!!! Dirk and Marianne, Billy B, John Cogan, Rick King, Bobby B, Carl, HUD and all of the NRKA Thank you for overhaulin me and being the greatest group of family on the planet.
