Who are your picks going in?

Geico vs CMS in the Mercury 1650 club, and Alex Ani vs Envy on the Stotler team. Geico has struggled this year on the race circuit with temperature issues. Will 03 CMS continue to pull ahead? Or will Marc, Scott, and Stray strike back to remind us all why they are 8 time world champions? As for Alex Ani and Envy, I have a feeling the new turbos in Alex Ani will trump the blowers in Envy, but nothing more amazing than seeing this many big cats clawing at each other. Thanks to Hammer Down Boating for posting the lineup.

Thanks for the HDB mention. Should be some great racing.

In the Extreme Class, I'll be surprised if the Outerlimits runs in it; last I knew, they weren't running the class spec 572 cubic inch naturally aspirated / no fuel injection / no forced induction engines, as per the SBI rules; that's why Lucas Oil is in the Unlimited Class. Instigator & Twisted Metal always put on a great show.

Good to hear Speed Racer / Performance Marine is planning on joining the Unlimited Class....lots of high HP hardware will be showing up in Clearwater.

It also looks like the other classes are also filling out nicely! Can't wait.

Little secret spot that even has boat slips. It's no Sandpearl but it works just fine and for a fair price

The Outer Limits team DID build the spec motors and ran Sarasota and Michigan City in that class against Hooters and Twisted Metal.....
