this thread has inspired a new OSO contest!!! I will post details tomorrow once I get the list of competitors, after the drivers meeting!!!

Well, then the pits are useless. too.

There will be more POKER RUN boats getting used for fun than Race Boats racing. And I mean blasting the harbor and taking cruises.

As a former racer I weep for the condition of racing.

well maybe in KW, but at a race, if Jim is in the pits, margaritas are flowing, and if Im in the pits, capt and cokes are flowing..

Speed GIrl,

That is the reason I did this thread a sort of competition... I do not know how to post a proper poll/ competition so I just did it like this ,,, Hope you appreciate....

GLAD I INSPIRED YOU ;-)....

Thanks ,
Rob.

Cryin dont make nothin better silly You have fun in your playground... I'll have fun in my playground ... and I'll meet you in the bar when were done

Deal, but I may be late. Lots more going on in my playground.

Well I never got the list from the race organizations so plan B... I will start a new thread and stick it about the contest!

There a lot of teams arriving yesterday and today to register. There should be a pretty good list by tonight

I don't believe it has anything to do with canopied vs uncanopied or Fountain vs Stuphen. It most likely has everything to do HP.

Dry your eyes Cash, boatracing is doing just fine. There are 60ish teams here representing one of the most international fields ever to race Key West. The line up of races for next year is amazing. Some of the showboater/flag collectors have left us for sure, but what you have left is a core of folks who want/love to race. We will have six or seven boats in our class (depending on who gets finished and gets here) and you know that number will make for a serious race. There is much talk about consolidating classes and making things more interesting for the spectators. People are listening, changes take time. Our President could step in and completely change the course of Offshore overnight, I'm sure. Unfortunately he is busy altering something else that not as busted as people think. In spite of all to the contrary, people who want/love to race boats Offshore will be doing it. I know it has become a reflex reaction to dismiss it, but one of these days, say you're lost and you find yourself at a race site you might be surprised how vital and changed it has become.
