Who wants some?? We'll try to get the race packet out this week.

heater63 04-08-2008 09:19 PM

Ron,send it to me asap.I plan on attending

TYPHOON 04-09-2008 08:47 AM

What is the local airport? Any Hotels that are sponsoring OSS?
MD

Ryan Beckley 04-09-2008 08:59 AM

You can fly into Las Vegas or Pheonix it's a few hour drive from there. We just booked rooms at the Days Inn for a pretty good rate. It looks like 15-20 OSS Boats Plus the POPRA boats will be there.

Ron P 04-09-2008 11:32 AM

For now, you can find info about hotels etc at www.pacificoffshore.com and www.lakeracerllc.com.

Look for 200 boats in the Poker Run on Friday, then racing on the weekend. This is supposed to be the biggest event of the year for Havasu. It should be an awesome weekend in the desert.

PS - the drive from Vegas is supposed to be much nicer than the drive from Phoenix.

Reindl Powerboats 04-10-2008 04:48 PM

Best to fly into Vegas, anyone needing a ride from Phoenix just let us know, we will be leaving on Wed and Thurs. Could be bigest One Design Showing ever.... If both West Coast guys can make it we will have nine.

Places to stay, London Bridge is sold out, but a ton of other hotels - if you are looking for a Condo or House, give Jennette a call at 928-486-4904. Website is www.havasuvacationrentals.com

heater63 04-10-2008 07:32 PM

Ron P 04-10-2008 08:32 PM

Its not that we would not love to be in Havasu, it is just logistically impossible. Back in January we plan our schedule
of 20 races, 10 boat shows, and numerous public appearances. It takes time to move all of our equipment and house all of our people. We pur SanDiego on our schedule as a POPRA event because Haggin likes to support all sanctioning bodies.
The Havasu event only became a combined event after we had previously scheduled stuff for that time frame.
The Platinum will be at the Jacksonville Boat Show until Tues making it impossible to prep, get race ready and get to AZ.
The MTI is scheduled to be in Nebraska to meet Warren Buffet
on the 28th, the Caveman, safety boat and Mystic need to be in Ft Lauderdale on the 30th to Shoot a GEICO commercial and race on the 3rd.
We are in bad graces with the DOT for running 24/7 to do what we do and we MUST run legal from now on and we just cannot make it happin.
We are truly dissappointed but I hope you understand

Wahoo ATV 04-16-2008 08:13 AM

Hey Guys, I got 2 one Bedroom Condo's with Pool and a 45' boat garage 10 mins from pits for $100 a night each on www.VRBO.com.

Ryan Beckley 04-16-2008 09:15 AM

Scotty you guys are lettin down your fans!!!! Bring the Mystic.!!

Aqua Banshee 04-16-2008 09:24 AM

Ron P 04-16-2008 11:01 AM

Scotty, bring the Caveman boat for the Poker run and speed run. You don't need to bring the whole circus, just make a showing.

DriverofDonzi 04-16-2008 05:35 PM

Scotty, It is always next year......BUT...be sure to bring mystic to Michigan races this year! :)
