Think about it this way - who is more deserving of points the guy who broke 10ft into the race or the guy who runs all the laps???

Ok we will call it "actions detrimental to Offshore Racing"
but penalty is the same.

If the guy who ran all the laps breaks out, then the guy who broke out 10 feet in is more deserving.

Class 5 & 6 are ALMOST identical with size and speed, and most everyone agrees that we have to many classes but are not willing to sacrifice or change "my" Class.

I'll agree that a 26ft Velocity will suck in the bigger waters racing in class5, but it's better for the sport "Less Classes", people will adapt and move forward.

And for that "My boats to slow argument" I say Upgrade .. remember that little single O/B that raced class 6? , Well he was to slow and small and we did not make a class for him.


----------------------------------

Far as the break out rule I have been on both sides of the stick on that.

But I like the ideal of having to finish first, than out of the finishers the person who "Broke" out is scored and placed against them.

We are racing and competing and we should be scored against people who actually competed the full event (not a "few" laps") .

[QUOTE=F1-00 Racing;3276175]Heres a possible compromise, with Frank getting the exact numbers down to the decimal, if this scenario rears its ugly head which it will as it did in Harrison and Solomons(that is 2 that I am aware of) put a break out limit on it, then revert it back to the broken down boat if the break out goes over that amount.

ie(using class 4 as example) I break down and Steve Adams wins but has a break out on his tattletale, if he broke out over 85.5 then the win goes to me, if under 85.5 he gets the win[/QUOTEbsflag:

breaking down you do not have control over.





WHO HAS A 90 MPH CLASS 6 BOAT ?????
