Ben Bruce Memorial Airpark... 1/4mile dragway. Not nearly as busy as HRP but it still attracts quite a crowd. They run test and tune every Saturday and Sunday night if you wanted to run your truck just to see what it would do.

Haha... Our 25' RBS boats (those twin outboards you see usually) are BA boats. Those little hummers will do 35kn crazy 8's and are self righting. I would love to get a decommissioned one but they sell for $100k even used.
As for the HH65 Dolphin Helo (the enclosed tail rotor one), those things haul ***, too. They sound BA also.
Yeah man. PM me when you get a plan together and I'm sure we can work something out. I am off next weekend but work the weekend after.
