Class 2 and 3
 
Here is a suggestion from waterboy
With the Fountains out of class 2 it opens up an oportunity
In class 3 95 mph we have the twin outboard cats running with the Big V's

What we see is teams picking sites to run based upon water conditions and ability to win.
Example V's win in the rough, Cats win in the flat.

Waterboys's suggestion give the V's class 2 and give the twin Outboard cats class 3
This evens up the playing field. If the twin cats want to run heads up so be it. Hence Super Stock.

What do you think Smitty

does the class three speed stay the same if it is only cat outboards

Drinking Fountain 02-19-2009 01:21 PM

If the speeds stayed the same it would be great since we just spent some $$$ for some new props to run a little better. We have a score to settle with Bull On The Beach!!!

Smitty if that does happen I am sure I can get Bobby to come to more races.

Call me I would love to talk more about this.

Do ya think!!!!!!!

The revised Class 2 would include "Wanted","TKO","Xtreme"
"High Risk","Your In Command".,"JC Performance"..and a new team from Maryland in a 35ft Fountain.

The revised Class 3 cats would include "Your Gonna Have That","Bull On The Beach","Crime Pays"..a new team from Long Island in a 28ft skater..and maybe you guys could get "Cat Can Do" to come back out.There are also other old S-Class boats out there that could run in this class.Just a thought;lowering the speed to 90mph may make it more attractive to other potential boats as there are quite a few fast twin outboard cat pleasure boats that could be raced.

I think it would help both the Vees and the Cats by allowing them to be competitive in all of the races regardless of the water conditions;and eventually grow the boat count in both classes.

Might be one more in class 2 - depends if the stars align correctly or not...:ernaehrung004:

on the wick 02-19-2009 05:21 PM

Bobby B Jim and Bob will proably eating with you too

Drinking Fountain 02-19-2009 06:32 PM

All joking aside, I do agree with waterboys comments. We would definelty be game if it is a possibility? That would also keep the boat counts up in each class and keep all class 3 boats racing deck to deck.

Smitty give me a call and we can talk about it. If we need to have a conference call about it let me know and i will get the rest of the guys from Michigan involved.

All great ideas, but why do we wait till just before the season to discuss and implement rule changes?

Rick no need to worry...their not dropping the minimum speed in either class so you should be ok. Just tuck in the rod holders and you'll be all set. :evilb:
