Race course set up in Orange Beach..thoughts?
What did you guy's think of the race course?
I really liked the setup . It was well thought out with great lines that allowed you to keep speed without compromising the boat.
Notice there was no roll overs. # 4 was a little sharper than a Dog-leg but not so sharp that it was dangerous.
Hopefully we'll see more courses like that.

Hey Marc,
Glad you liked the course. It's amazing what you can do with a Etch-A-Sketch...lol
As always it was a pleasure to have everyone in OB. The words of our City Administrator at 5pm Monday, "not the first citizen called to complain, an overall wonderful event!", makes you glad to be able to put on an event like this. Can't wait until next year.
Thanks again,
Sam Jackson

DoublEdge Motorsports had a great time. ALL the folks in OB made us feel welcome. HELL even the toll booth lady didn't charge us with the boat when we left!!!! Great site, course, place. Special thanks to our local sponsors

Hey Sam, From A Fan's Point It Was Great. A Bunch Of Us Drove Over From New Orleans, Left The Repairs Behindfor A Weekend, And Had A Tremendous Time. It Sure Took The Worries Off The Minds. The "dry Pits" Were Excellant In The Spot Right Off The Bridge. Hopefully, We Can Do It Again Next Year....... Sal
