Then they could have events held together which would equal more boats.

Well said. I really hope the new class rules, mirror those elsewhere. It seems logical. The current cat class in question down south is quite fun to watch.

Its called APBA. Been around for 100 years and sets the rules for all to play in. For some reason orgs fight this simple concept of all of us having the same rules. Maybe this year will be a new UNITED WE RACE year. I think I have heard that before.LOL
Sorry I think we are off topic on this thread. Congrats Evil Ed on one sweet ride.

Bob Cat
Insane Class
(sponsor name) Cat
Fat Cat

Since these engines are built by engine builders...I think MODIFIED would be a good name...the cat classes could be called:

UNLIMITED(turbine & extreme combined)
MODIFIED the 750 class
SUPER-STOCK for the outboards

I don't care what you call it, but the class has to be the same as other Orgs. so that they can race in any org. with no problems.

I have asked bob teague to put together a set of rules for the class. He has agreed. I trust his experience, will provide us with what we need. Now what shall we call this class????

spec extreme?????????????

302Sport 11-17-2013 10:59 AM

Please do not use "Extreme" in the name. It's already used in about every other class.

Hey everybody,

Just to confrom The new Trafic light boat will be the old Talk and Trash boat or no?

I bet Evil Ed has a big ole evil grin on his face!! Should be a nice fast safe boat, I know lot of work went into redoing the canopy to make it stronger/safer. No more key west salt water injection system!

Have fun Ed and I'm looking foreward to seeing you air that thing out!
