I'm looking for some barefoot races that are in the spring time. my team and I have a boat, but depending on who from my team can make it we may be looking for someone with a boat that wants to ski. thanks   Heath

Where are you located? I'm in Michigan and have not heard of any races before July. I'll let you know if we hear of anything, and you do the same.

Thanks.

That sounds sweet, we are tring to find what races that most of the guys on the team can make.Michigan is one of the races that we have been thinking of. I am talking to footers from all over to try to find a boat, and or maybe some footers to hits some races.
check out www.barefootendurance.com there is a list of races that I know about, there are some others but I have had no luck in getting a hold them . I have only footed behind 1 BFN and it was FAST!!! But I don't know if it was just his or if all BFN are that fast. But I'm always up to find out.

James, or anyone else with a BFN... How many turns is lock to lock on your wheel? Also looking for a BFN trailer guide rental to make a pattern for with Alan. I bumped Feelgood's BFN into a dock and need something to blame it on, I think he's got a short cable in more ways than one.

HA! Thanks Steve. Get your truck back yet?

His is/was 2 1/2, I'm off the hook! At idle, I caught the tip of the boom on a dock post and snapped the clip off the bow eye, else no damage to anything else.

I got my truck back, thanks for asking. The collision shop, the owner is a friend of mine, did a great job. It's nice driving my Avalanche instead of bouncing between our Wrangler, my F-350 dump truck, and a 99' Chevy 1/2 ton with 189,000 miles.
I should have rented for the month.
