Getting ready for St. Clair
 
Racers all over the nation are getting ready for the OSS race in St. Clair.

The picture was snapped by our resident spy in Florida, who we dispatched to East Lake Toho. There, OSSC #5, WHM (on the crane,) and OSSC #20, Reliable (in the water,) were caught testing side-by-side, as if they aren't bitter enemies on the racecourse.

This "no secrets" testing and setting up can be seen throughout all OSS classes.

This peaceful coexistence doesn't extend to the racecourse, though. With nearly twice the points at stake for the Super Cats (as a make-up for St. Pete,) the battle will be fierce.

Our secret cameras, permanently installed at Will Smith's "Phantom" skunkworks in Sarasota, were triggered by even more preparations for the great OSS St. Clair race.

Team IMCO sent their boat to the shop in their eternal quest for even more speed.

"Lighten up!" our hidden microphones overheard Will Smith saying when Eric Wahlberg requested more MPH. "Less weight, less wait!" And Will proceeded to remove a lot of wait from the red, white & blue IMCO boat.

Will the Gator Wrestlers hit their target weight, cleverly hidden under the IMCO extension box?

Where there's a Will, there's a way! (Slogan applies for the Krazy Kubans also ...)

Ben, if you or Eric loose any more weight you will be invisible. Best of luck in St. Clair.
