If you know you didn't win (fairly ) where is the reward ?
Certainly not a $20 trophy .

Well, In my opinion, there are 2 types of people involved in racing (all forms)

#1 Those who race. Many show up, win some races, spend a lot of money, get a lot of pictures with checkered flags and trophies, brag to world about their accomplishments, move on to something else.

#2 Racers.

Blueprinting the bottom isn't allowed?

No, they are not allowed to sand or blueprint.

We raced P1 last year in Tampa after years of running our own One Design class years ago and All I can say is they are doing a lot of stuff right, that's what I would make a post about. When ever you have racers competing, you are going to have people pushing the rules. Their guys saw someting, got on top of it, and corrected it? What else do you want them to do? Do you really think other teams are not pushing boundries?

Last year there was word of someone using an illegal substance in the motor and they came right in a said anyone caught using it would be immediately DQ'd.

To me they are being very pro active, and their product is amazing.

It was called the Great McCarthy.

I think they had 2 50' Carys and were running drugs

NO, I never cheated or had a Cary 50 and I never ran drugs or got royalties from that episode.

But, I think I could have won that race fair and square by beating Crockett.

Obviously P1 is doing everything to keep everyone on same playing field. They have a great platform as i have stated. They caught the problem and made Lee fix the issue before he could race. So Reindl your correct in your statement. Their product is amazing. Just don't want a couple bad eggs to ruin it for everyone else. I wonder what Lycamobile would think being a sponsor?

Sandman is right here. You got some facts to prove your post? When you bring my name into a topic you better have it correct...or be corrected.

Really Clark, jackass?? I do not disagree with you about the Geico team and their contribution to the offshore racing scene.... But if you have ever tried to insure a boat with even modest power, they inform you that they do not insure boats like that.... kinda ironic IMO??

. I often heard the 2 types were cheaters and loosers. I hope that this is not so
