Mark...THANKS, I'm voting that WE are completely NUTS! ..............Mel, I already have the order in with my Italian Buddies, even have the Hoboken bread is on order. See you then . Augie

Hey Bruce, since its sounds like you guys are going to pull the doubleheader off, why dont you try to convince Randy and Glenn to come on up. I know of a particular Fountain that is waiting to put some spray on their deck...

they are supoosed to race on Sunday in Marathon. they told the F-1s in Daytona

I don't see where anyone disputes anything firewater did. The post reads that the batboat cut across the coarse and thats why Firewater almost hit them. Not hitting them is a testiment to there abilities.If they won even with a spin out that shows how good they are. I think a little reading comprehension is in order

Uuhhhhh, just asking,
 

But are you guys sure that APBA Offshore is running the Factory 1 class on Sunday in Marathon?

I heard they may run two races on Saturday rather than run them on Sunday. It will depend on turnout....and they say they will be prepared to run two races if necessary. I hope it's true as Daytona was pushing it with 40+ boats (half the fleet) in one race (not to mention the speed differentials).

here is what Mike A said:
Everyone:

For the time being F1 will run on Saturday. We are concerned about the number of boats racing on the course at the same time. We could have over 90 boats in Marathon based on the Daytona turnout and a certain rowdy group of - shall I say - gentlemen from the NE coming to town, we could have as many as 40 Outlaw boats. (Notice I did not say "P" boats). If we have to we will run 2 races, ugh, on Saturday, but to accomodate Cand...errrrr, Rand....errrr, Mad Dog, we will run F1 on Saturday.

Mike A.

that should clear matters up.. it would be nice to see 2 races on Saturday as well.
