Factory Rules?
Hey Micklos,What is the scoop on Factory rules?The price on the lease program is only 1 part of the equation.
Lets forget about the lease for a min. and tell us what is in store for drives and gimbals.ITS,Bravo sportsmen lower and 5 blade props?You must not have the answers yet or you would have posted but how about some ideas of where we are know.Lets start with the givens.Are the following going to be leagal next year.
1) Vortex motors
2) 525 EFI motors
3) 500 EFI motors
4) 500 carb motors
5) ITS gimbal
6) 5 blade props
7) Sportsman lower Bravo
Is this all leagal with differant weight restrictions,I have heard so except the ITS gimbal.
Any input would be most helpful to the teams building new boats.

Randy:
(1)Leave your boat alone , it's the best all round F1 Boat out there! Quit worrying so much about the rules!
(2) Take a spelling course (Mikolos , legal , Vortec , different) hey these words all describe Mikolos - too funny!
(3) Quit pissing off Frank or I'm going to team up with him and show you how to run a F1 Boat!
(4) Send Louise her frying pan or your banned from our support trailer!
All in good fun Candy - BH

Randy,
Get out your checkbook. Let's see. A 525 - $30,000+-. 5 Blade Props - $1500 ea. Need 2. Gimbal... what do ya think, $4000. New lower $3500. A mear total of $40,000. Find a sucker for your old stuff...subtract $16,000. So now you have another $24,000 or so invested and if you runaway from the pack, you'll most likely end up with a weight penalty. You better be sandbagging.
