Are you kidding me ?
 

How can their be no info on todays Long Beach race ? Or am I just missing it ? This is the OPA racing page right. I know it usually takes days or weeks to post race results, but I can't believe their is no commentary about the race. I'm already pissed off that I couldn't be there to watch, but it's amazing that I get more info from news12 than I do from OSO. Oh well, maybe next year I can actually go to the races to see for myself.

I am kind of curious about the final race being a lap and a half long? waited all day for a two lap and stop event? It really looked like it could have been a good race. The second race was the best, even if only between two boats. Any info?

Coast Guard Race Permit expired at 5PM

Everyone here certainly had their hands full.

I made an attempt by sending photos out to someone of the first race winners but got no response. Mainly because they too are in work overload this weekend . This race will certainly get coverage during the week .

Thanks for the update TW & Tim!!!!!

You need to chill and relax, since it doesn't take days or weeks. Just so you know, the awards ceremony did not start until almost 8pm, and at 8:40 you are already complaining.

SVL's were also only 1 lap. Dee, great job, again!

Dee your awesome

Gotcha Scott, thanks for the info, list updated

When doing anything in N.Y. there are many different entities to deal with and logistics were monumental. As far as advertising the event we had certain restrictions and we did our best. This being the 1st year in Long Beach we had a certain learning curve to deal with. So far all responses have been positive so it looks like were gonna do it again and we know where we need some work. I also noticed the super stock cat outboard class was not listed. to end speculation race three was started late do to an early morning snafu and we ran up to the time limit of our permit. Next year we will have more time to advertise the event, but my question is if your on offshoreonly how could you not know about the race? its been on for months. Anyway book it in your schedule books for 3rd week in august 2014.
Thanks to everyone who came to see us ,volunteered, raced and worked rescue/police. Louie
