why change anything?

Ditto..

Cant imagine being 12 plus boats wide going into the first turn in St Clair, especially with a 5mph slower boat.

I say keep classes apart like it is now but i think you need to be still running to place at the end. Real nice rick does your mom no you have that mouth or finger as it my be :angry-smiley-038:

You don't need to be running at the checkered to place in any other motorsport. Why should we be different?

Looks like there will be another class 6 boat from Michigan ready for next season! Havent been to a OPA race yet but we're set'n the boat up to run class 6. Class 6 seems to be a great entry level class! :boat:

The current OPA 6 World Champ is from Michigan (Akula)
The past OPA 6 Champ is from Michigan (Crockett)
The current fastest team in 6 is from Michigan (PFE) :evilb:
