Also my dilemma as well. As I'll be racing next year my boat is a 29 century. Its really 28' 8" An old B class boat. Has 2 small blocks except I have blowers do I take em off or make people cry

i'm crying already....lol...take'm off and run it, the more the merrier:coolcowboy:

i can see where this is going....gonna have to put one big bravo crushing motor in to stay competitive....or build another boat:lolhit:

Bla,bla,bla guys in the end Smitty is reading all of this. He is the only one that will make any rule changes and that can clairify these questions, So Smitty please tell everyone before we get to OC what your decission is on Cats in class 5. Dont have the guy's debate on the internet. It is something that has been over looked in the rules. Make the call and post it please. Either way someone is going to be un happy. :daz:
MD

Sounds like would still be allowed back in then?

Very well said Randy!!!!!
Make the call Smitty and no hard feelings with the outcome.

The only thing right now i think, is that i believe smitty will more then likely make a good decision. If and when the time comes to race again and we would need to get pushed up, so be it. I am not going to complain, I will call Mr Smith and ask, then build a hull/boat that fits where i am put. If you can make a boat fit within the rules cat or v then go for it. show the cat what you have, play within the rules push them as far as they will allow.

In the end, smitty will make the right decision for all, i truly believe that. and that is coming from 10 years of racing with people who didn't think that...and no longer wish to be around & have fun with boats and OPA.

Let them race

If OPA is a democracy, not saying it is..Smitty's word is final and thats ok, but if it was...I sent out an email to all the class 5 teams asking there opinions on cats in Class 5...EVERYONE has voted no...except Randy who refused to vote :p

Hey Johny
You may have to learn new song?
Cat scratch fever da da da:lolhit:

Im down for a little Nugent :D

funny how a cat might show up and all hell breaks loose. but no one complains that certain racers constantly run 800-900 hp ++++ engines.
