Brett,
Very cool on the donation of the prizes money to Jack's fund and all other teams too. Also, No Randy has not been paid yet, as he offer for me to deduct my SBI racing membership out of his missing funds owed from SBI last year, if I needed it in Marathon. Although I did not end up needing a membership with SBI, no boat... Although I thought about starting a "swimming" racing class. Hell I'd get a checkered flag. (Oh, that's going to stir things up. )

Chris,

I stand corrected...I forgot to count myself twice.

Back to back racing in One Design was a real blast. Coming from fifth place in Race #1 to first place in the Race #2 was even more of a blast.

Our 1st place finish puts Team Mid-American just 10 points behind Harlan Racing in the points standing. Can't wait to see how this year plays out.

By the end of the season John will be in his new Supper Cat Light and I will be in my new Super Vee....and we'll both still be running One Design. Yee Haa!

Typhon have you got paid for SBI worlds yet or are you still waiting.
Oh yeah in Cinci we got our check two hours after the race at the awards banquet which almost all the teams forwarded to the Jack Stoerrle Memorial Fund for his family.

I dissagree with you. I'v been to a few of SBI races, Mr. Carbonell does care .The man does not BS tells it how it is, at the time,when needed.

MM,
I raced with SBI for 4 consecutive years and I can only go by what he said to me. ( no rumors) Brett, I don't care if you race with me or not and I don't know when I am going to pay you.
That attitude and no inspections last year was enough for me. The main reason was my sponsor showing up and seeing no boats. I can tell you when my sponsors went to Daytona they were much happier to see more boats at Daytona then the complete season last year at SBI.

Brett,
Tell it like it is. I have never been paid from SBI ever. He wonders why people stop racing with him. I have an F! boat in florida ready to go if he pays his bills. I refuse to race ageinst one other boat anymore and say I'm a winner or show a first place trophy for beating noone. That is embarrassing. Pay people , don't back up liars and cheater( NYC 2002) and maybe people will trust you. If not tell your stories to people who are your loyal fans and don't know any better. NOONE with any dignity should come on this site and say he cares about his racers. Pay people when they pay to enter. Check their equipment for their own safety. Any stop the crap of telling everybody about how sponsors should be proud of them. Like everyone else here when my sponsor went to the race , they said" If i wanted to pay for advertising to 50 people and have you race by yourself i would invite to my house in the Hamptons for a weekend and atleast you could race me on my sailboat"
Enough said!!!
Brett see ya in Savnnah!
Everyone else see ya at OPA or APBA races.
Race were people care and people show up.

It is not a race if your by yourself!!!!!!! Unless your scared of competition!!!!

MM,
There you go from just a few guys, their are more that feel that way, they arent bashing, just telling it like it is. Racing is competitive, when there is no competition, no one goes.
looking forward to Savannah. will we top 100 boats???
