Stopping by to visit Driver Ron Baker and The Topless Crew

Pictured are yours truly, my son Zach, Driver Ron Baker, Linda, and Ron's son Ron.

When Ron's not being a great sport, he's working hard on his boat. He has shown great promise as a newcomer, and is the 2002-2003 IHBA defending World Champion in the river racing circuit. Out of 6 races Ron competed in last year he finished No. 1 in three of them and took 2nd Place in the World Finals.

A picture only McDonalds could love! Does this say
"I Love McDonalds"
or what?

Ron tells me that a boat like this cost between $25,000 and $30,000. A paint job costs around $3,000.
Zach! Get off of that!

Now there's a lot of beef! Or ham in my case.

Zach just loved that motor. I asked Ron what he was running and he told me
it was a 514 cubic inch Ford motor. He does not run Nitrous Oxide (N2O) or "NOS" as our kids refer to it, and that he has a top speed of 92 mph. ON WATER! He also said the motor runs around $10,000. I think he could use a sponsor like McDonalds.

Ron shows me his prized possessions in his trophy area.

I see him full throttle in this picture. Hammer down Ron!

Wow, what a great afternoon. Zach and I learned lots about this sport and we plan on seeing Ron race soon. As soon as I can get a schedule from him I will post it so you can go out and support him. Tell him "the big fat guy from MyMcDiet" sent you. If you would like to contact Ron you can do so via:

Ron's web site at http://www.topless000.com
or
Ron's email at toplessracing@aol.com

Ron is looking for sponsors and has information on his web page regarding how you can have your name on his boat. I know Ron is determined to win and if you call him I think you will hear that in him as well, so here is a chance to buy cheap advertising with a winner while you can. And if your just a fan, he has T-Shirts available if you write to him. Ask him for the MyMcDiet pricing. Hope that's not higher....

I asked him how he got the name for his boat, Topless000 and he said that 000 (triple zero) is the number and Topless because of a phenomenon that has been known to occur at high speeds where female passengers have been known to lose their bathing suit tops on more than one occasion. Ron, why are we in the driveway?

Well Zach and I made it home pretty late and I still needed to walk. As I said before I am unwavering in my commitment to succeed and as I show here today I surround myself with winners!

I made it 12 miles and I was back by 1 AM in the morning! Let me tell you about commitment. If you know about monsoon in Arizona you know we have the second best (next to Florida) lightning in the country. Well, I should not say best when I am walking in it! I walk along the desert and mountains on the far north side of town, which are not the best places to be in lightning.

My wife even came out and drove next to me for awhile because I am crazy. Well I think that was established awhile ago. That is why threat of lawsuit from Morgan will not stop me (just bankrupt me), threat of lawsuit from McDonalds will not stop me (just bankrupt me), threat of no power in the city (will just starve me if McDonalds closes, anyone have a generator?), threat of lightning and electrocution (the state has threatened me before), threat of heart attack or other organ failure (and I wasn't told that when I was fat?)

WILL NOT STOP ME

I must prove to myself that I can do this. I must prove to my friends and family I can do this, I must prove to the world that this can be done. I must defend what I believe in or I am not free. I chose not to be fat anymore but I chose to eat McDonalds. This is why I must take on Morgan and challenge his movie and his theory. There must be someone on the other side of this controversy to even it out. Let the Battle of the Bulge Begin! To do so...

FAT MAN WALKING.... to be continued
