YES racers were told that SBI/APBA/UIM boats were not allowed to compete in the AMF kilos the past week.
That was an overblown issue and the decision was one we supported and never intended to overstep our bounds.

That being said, Congrats to all the Racers in Biloxi and stop hijacking there thread.

[QUOTE=dhlaw] It does not lend itself to spectator involvement therefore it does not lend to marketing firms. [QUOTE]

How much more spectator friendly could it be? Walk around the pits, touch the boats, talk to the racers and watch the race for free from the beach?

I'll have to disagree, this sport is very fan friendly.

I've got some good video of the races and will try to upload something cool to show you how fast these OSS cats and OSS V's were running.

Congrats to everyone who raced, it was a safe and fun race.

It is amazing how much the lead teams picked it up over the winter. Last year you couldn't touch pro marine and now they are a middle of the pack boat. Yes J.T. is not in the boat but it seems like there was at least a 5 MPH gain in the front boats. Thats hard to find in 5 months with such tight rules! Congrats guys.

It's crazy how fast some of these super cats are running. During testing on Saturday they all looked like they were running 150 mph. CRC looked real good during testing but I didn't think they would whoop up so bad on sunday. Mike said that they just got the boat and said they hadn't done a ton of testing.

Everyone looked ridiculously fast out there. It's going to be one hell of a season and especially with this new point system nobody is out of the hunt.

I believe they are allowing the Supercats to run larger Carbs, due to OSS SCL speeds closing in on OSS SC Last year. New rule was effective this year.
