Its funny....I heard a lot about Tyler in class 6 and how unfair it is....but when you look at the results....only 2 boats made every race in class 6, Tyler and a one design....
and Undertow finished less then 50 pionts behind Tyler....
So actually....if Undertow could have made the 1st race which everyone got 50 points.....611 Undertow would have won the points championship.....and I could be wrong...but is this not the boat who was sinking when it came in at Point Plesant with all the hull damage....and what would the standings have looked like if all Class 6 boats made all the races.....Tyler may have dropped to 3 or 4th place in the point standings...

Now don't get me wrong...I believe there has to be a cap on HP to keep it fair....but with big HP you loose reliablity.....but thats up to the officals to decide on....

There are a number of teams that will be stepping up this year. They just dont know it yet. You ran well in that class, for your first year of racing, in the Phantom. Hang in there. Smitty

Sorry guys did'nt mean to start(continue) any chit that was'nt my place still in the greenhorn stage .Just kinda felt like we got stompted on in the last two races after doing good in Patch and Point

We can custom paint it to match your boat :D

If we let you color match we want one of those neon colored mohawk airfilter(bug filter) What if we scratch your paint putting it in i dont think i could handle that .

[QUOTE I do think class 6 and 5 should be a pump gas class. This will help. .[/QUOTE]

Makes sense to me, didn't know anyone was running fuel in 5 0r 6.

Anyone can set up a centrifugal to make sick power on pump gas and live, I don't think race fuel is real power gainer or limiter on those boats.

We can make 800 HP on pump gas no problem. Maybe we should run V6 engines...... :D

Race gas might be cheaper by the time racing season starts. Plus the engines will probally last longer and save a lot of pistons and head gaskets especially with the guys turning higher RPM.
