APBA Super Vee or Super Vee Light?

Since Super Vee seems to be diminishing and cost about the same as Super Cat - what do you think?

if they have a boat which cannot be converted to svlII, put some big blower motors in it and run PV extreme

RACE BOATS
What ever, just reduce the number of classes to classes that have a min. of 7-10 boats in a class. STOP BUILDING BOATS FOR CLASSES WITH NO BOATS IN IT!!!!!! or race in P class.

Thumbs up it's getting better

Randy - I think that's the direction APBA Offshore is going. If they decide to do away with SV there will be Six Super Series Classes. You should of moved up to SVL Twin or SVL Single. If you ever get a canopy over that head, you'd be hooked - BH

Pete B,
I say push them over to SBI. Makes for a stronger class there.
PV Extreme is boring. To much of a money class and for what, to boost someone's ego. Look what happened to Open Class a few years back. It will never be anything but an exhibition class anyway.
I can see more of that kind of stuff at any big Poker Run.
Now rename "Super Vee Light Twin", "Super V".

rlw,
i agree, just if they wanted to run a boat at apba races. i think they should run sbi vice by themselves anyday.

Doug,

I dont think that is what they are saying. They are saying there are too many classes to follow.

SC, SCL, SV, SVL, F1, F2, OD and the Performance classes.

Even then we still need 42 trophies for what are typically 60-100 fleet races.
