Default Let me pick!!!

You tell me what kind of boat you have with what kind of power,top speed,rigging,expereance and length.And let me tell you what class.
Bring them on!

This will be based on P1-P5

I will start and say all F1 should be P3
all APBA F2 should be P2
all SBI F2 should be P1
most P5 should be P4
Anything over 100 mph P1
P5 rookies and older boats with little chance. (want a taste)
Everyone should step up so there is NO HOLDING BACK issues

Hey Randy,
A real good starting point is the one design, Especially if you dont want o break the family boat. Then step up the following year.

Randy, We are currently working with Chris, He wants the Jersey Boyz to come race in Cinn. Even offering travel $. And in exchange they are willing to come race here. First piece in the puzzle of cross racing

Augi you are perfect in P4 with your boat configeration.Now if you had a 2 man race rigged and lost 1500 lbs I would move you to P3

Randy, is there a top speed for F1? If not, what do you think it will take to win in F1?

thanks
Shawn

Shawn,
There is no top speed for F1, as long as you build the boat to legal wieght and drive hieght.I think APBA might have a restriction of some props also.
I think the trick to winning is be consistant,in the rough and the flat.If you can hang with the smaller and faster boats in the calm and then do well in the rough you will be in the hunt.Top speeds of 81-83 will be very competetive.
