I do, but it seems that just about all the players of that game have since folded and no longer hold an interest in putting on OS races...
No need to rehash the history aspect of it.
Let's look to the future and see if anyone can top the 2004 Worlds!!!

OSS will NOT be in Key West this year to race with SBI. OSS is already in talks with several sites. It was a unanimous vote from all the teams to NOT race there. We All like KW and are sad that it cannot work out this year but the time was ticking away with no communication. This is NOT up for discussion to be changed again this year. Sorry it came to this, but best of luck to all, no matter where you choose to race.

Then please tell us why you started this thread. It makes no sense.

Its what the Prarie Dog is all about....Now the next question will be since OSS is so concerned about the racers...will they schedule there Worlds on the same weekend as SBI/APBA's Worlds...

Does any one really know where the worlds are going to be?

OSS's World Championship is November 13 – 20 per the OSS website... Location TBA.

God I hope so!!!!

" I understand the Key west worlds was great success with all three organisations working together in harmony. It`s just a shame that it demands three associations all working towards the same goal. However , we all know that regardless how successful something is,there will always be a group who think they can do better. Sometimes they can,but history shows,invariably it means the successful enterprise becomes fragmented and once the wheels fall off it`s always very difficult to resurrect."

Thats what they think about us over sea`s.

I would have to say it will be on the same week as SBI. OSS racers have planned on that week since the schedule was released and will try to not change dates where possible. The racers in OSS are ALL OK with this week and don't have a problem with picking which organization to run with. No one was told they have to race with OSS or else. Everyone has a choice where they want to race for the worlds. The only people that get the shaft on the whole thing will be the town of Key West and all the fans that now have to pick where they want to go.
Phantom, Why doesn't this thread make any sense to you? Its black and white now. There is no more gray area with UIM rules and qualifying with SBI. Like you all said before (here are the rules of SBI if you want to race in KW!) Just maybe now you believe me when I said most teams wont do the 2 race min. to qualify. I may be one of the few that post in OSS but I do know how the majority feel about racing.

There was nothing "black and white" about the first post in this thread.
