Key West GPS

Just a heads up to all the P class racers, SBI P Class uses Garmin GPS ONLY . If you need more info and the models that are legal you can check the rule book or call Richie D.

Garmin 182 they make it in color and Blk & Wht. If you look on Ebay you can find them pretty cheap. I think Al from Crazy Chicken has one he is looking to sell also .

Thanks, Chris
superheat any of the garmins are legal as long as the unit has the ability to down load info to a SD card. sbi uses the garmin mapping software with a SD card reader ( the regular SD card, NOT the micro card)
heres a link to the place where we got some garmin stuff.

can't let you move up a class by yourself. putting the $$ toward bigger power and stronger drives. don't know if opa is going to try to bring back super vee or not, but i am not intrested in running a spec class. but i am intrested in still kicking your ass. HaHa Bill
