Hey Haggin, did you figure out how to make a turbin yet? Or is it Turbine?
Time, patience, passion and pesistance can make it happen. Your on the right track, keep chugging along.
UNITED WE RACE ---- hopefully sooner than later.
Be well, have a safe flight back home.
Big Smiles all the way from USA.

If I can help UNITE all the countries, through a shared passion for Offshore Racing, then hopefully diplomacy will prevail!
So why is it soooooooo hard to accomplish this in the U.S.A?

Re: Uim Out....wppa In!!!
How does starting another race organization unite racers? I am not intimately familiar with the intricacies of powerboat racing in Europe but it seems to me it's already united by the UIM.

Re: Uim Out....wppa In!!!
UIM is more involved over here. As I understand it they charge alot of $
and drag their feet on many issues important to the race teams.
More than a few have told me the rule rule book is archaic and needs a major rewrite. The UIM will not do it and they give nothing back in return for the use of the flag. They are fed up and want to progress the sport.
This is what I am hearing from racers and officials over here.
In the next few months, I think it will become more clear the reasons and the term United we Race. It will be a global and not regional meaning.

Funny, that's almost word for word what Al Copeland said when asked - Why did you form OPT and break away from APBA.
