Smitty and I have worked on a very complicated deal that has just come together and we hope to be able put out the formal announcement in the next few days. Until the deal got done - (last Thursday) everything was in flux. Now we can move forward on all fronts.

OPTIMA will have thier big rig in the Sunny Isles Beach pits. They are bringing 60 batteries in the rig. Alan will work out a way that you get a reciept to pick up the batter(s) from the truck in the pits once you've registered. First come first served - we know we won't have enough for everyone. The rest will be shipped to the registered teams that didn't get them after the race.

Team OPTIMA Batteries - (Reinforcer) will be at all OPA races.

Lets go racing boyz!!!! The dust has settled. The season is on IN A BIG WAY!!!!

25 teams have pre-registered, so they are first in line for the batteries.

If you want to get the batteries in Sunny Isles Beach - it would be best to preregister before everyone leaves on Tues or Wed to head south.

Tuesday or wednesday I wish Ron.Our motor wont be going in until thurs !!!!!!!!! then we have the 26hr drive south.UGHHHHHHH! Gotta love racing!

Humm. Sounds like a good story line....
