Hey Guys, I had made a bet with a friend that the boat i am building would beat his in a drag race. We have both started out at the same point with simalar boats and have have also agreed on a deadline to finish or boats, basically if it wont rum by the last day of april you lose the race.<br /> Heres the pickle, my boat was just stolen three days ago 
. So to still have a chance i bought another boat (well my dad did) that dosent need much to get race ready. But now i think i have no chance of beating him. He has a 14 foot sears fb runabout (flatbottom) with a 1959 35hp seahorse. My new boat is a 14 hoursten glasscraft (kinda heavy and wide0 with a slight v-hull and a 1969 50hp johnson.<br /><br /> Do i still have a chance of winning? Should i juice up my motor a bit? <br /><br />p.s. there is 250 bucks and computer game on the line here.<br /><br /> F-man<br /><br />p.p.s. srry for the odd question<br /><br />p.p.p.s. I bought my new boat for 1200 bucks, everything works engine has zero hours on it since rebuild, perfect interior, nice trailer, just a little dirty, how did i do ?
