SGRO had to move up in class for KEY WEST
 

I just found out that Sgros boat is to fast for the 117 class in SBI. I am confused if he never went over 117 why does he have to move up? Must be the people left in the class are complaining.

What hull and what power?

Sounds like the same bull.... That sbi did to Walter Collins in tko, if you can't beat them, move them up a class!

Nobody knows??

That's what I'm getting at. I have read more times than I can remember, and seen more talk on the internet about how this boat ran 152mph at LOTO, now they're complaining because they get booted out of a 117mph class???????????

In index drag racing if they feel your capable of going too deep into the next class time, you get bumped. Same applies here I guess.

Maybe true, I don't know, but look at the other boats in the class ,Broadco, instigator... Why should they only single out the outerlimits?

SBI made the rules if you build a boat to run the rules why is SBI changing them. I just bring this up because racing has become a joke, they can't get race teams to commit because of things like this. Look back on the 525 days of racing that was racing. Should build a 565 class today thats where the sport needs to go. Racing is a very important part of the sport, that is how most of the technology comes from and trickles down to the consumer.

What class are the having to bump up to? They ran what class in NY?

I agree and I think it is awesome that OL has a factory team. Back in the days of F2 you had all of the factories running their stuff and supporting the sport. Where is cigarette, nortech, Etc????

No one is being singled out. The class was willing to try allowing some boats to run and see how it worked out some didn't work out. Some one mentioned Broadco and Instigator...Broadco also moved up and for Instigator he is running 750-800 HP . The only way to build a class is to try the best you can to have close and equal racing for the fans and the racers. Its not all about speed its also acceleration. I'm sure OL will come up with something Joe always does.

I agree! I really enjoyed the F2 class racing. A 565 class would be great!!

565-570 class would be awsome allow Merc and Ilmore to go at it.

I think you will see some other motor packages in SBI , simalar to what SBI has done with the Superboat Cat class. It has been very successful.
