Good to meet you the other day Jamie, I'm guessing you made it fine back up 95 since I didn't get a distress call. LOL looking forward to seeing you guys in OC.

We run brackets of speed on GPS, who cares if someone runs blowers or like Johnny and Jason, run a trick race injector setup. Some of us got creative and run HEAVY older boats that need horsepower to even get close to being competitive. We can't even come close to the acceleration of Mighty Macs or the Saris' P5 boat.

So you want to sanction us out of racing in OPA?

Just so you know I did read your 'implemented over time'... Do you think the older boats will get lighter over time? No, by your rules they'd stop racing. Good way to get the boat count up huh?

Nice!

yayyyyyy winter
Oh just suck it up ... when Chiro ran in Class 4 is was as is below:
Ocean City: registered class 3, not not make start (also boat could not get over a certain speed and was allowed to run in 4, class voted and agreed to allow them in $)
Sunny Isles: Did not race
Harrison: 3rd place
St Clair: 3rd place
Patchogue: 1st place (this was the year we had the storm, rough water)
Atlantic City: race cancelled
Solomons: 1st place (due to others in class breaking out & broke on 1st lap)

2013 season is looking like a possibility of only 2 rough water races, the others are flat

And keep in mind this is coming from the person than ran a little ole 29' Single Engine Fountain in Class 4 in Port Huron. (Yeah yeah, I did get lapped, but might not have if I could have stayed in the bolster on the 1st lap and not have to pull in to get resituated and lets not forget my almost spinout on turn 4)
