Since we are trying to get this race off and running again, I thought this thread by Rich Luhrs would add to the understanding of the difference between onshore racing and offshore racing.
Neither is better than the other and real racers would race in an ash tray, but we are trying to get the off shore stuff started again for a whole new generation of racers who never have experienced it.
Now, if the manufacturers would step up and work together for a single class that they agree on an engine package, then it would really open up again. Reputations of boat companies that still exist today were made in off shore racing.....new ones can be made again today. Come and join the fun.
