well i asked you guys about Daytona a few weeks back about where to ride b.c my boys and i were all supposed to go yesterday for a long weekend but then disaster struck last weekend.....:banghead:
ok i will try to make this as simple as i can but a lot of siht happend in less than six seconds
so my throttle return spring broke and i didnt know it i thought i was having cable trouble b/c it was a lil rough and was getting ready to break so after a long day of riding i had my trailer backed in the water and was going to load my ski when i went to start it i did not know the throttle was stuck wide open and as soon as i pressed start my ski rips out of my hands, hits my trailer, makes a sharp left and heads towards shore full throttle where my buddies kawi was beached and ends up ramping up the side of the kawi about 25mph and goes airborne about 4-5ft and the ends up nose stabbing a tool box on the front of one of my other buddies trailers on shore still sceaming and bouncing off rev lmt untill we shut it off.:bigeyes: lets just say it was an expensive 6 sec and there wasnt a damn thing i could do :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:
luckly everyone was ok b/c it could have been much worse and on top of that the the trailer i landed on usually has the brand new $10,000supercharged sea doo couch sitting right where i landed and he happened to take it out that day :hail: :hail: :hail:
so long story short, i bought my buddy a new toolbox , my other buddy a new hood and am now going to start the repair on my ski and since i already have to remake the front im shaving the gas cap, i bought footholds, and am making the squarenose round!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:biggthumpup: :arms: :haha:
ill keep you guys posted on the rebuild but untill then heres some pics of the damage
