Anyone want to try this sometime this summer? Need suggestions on a place and date.
I'm thinking Jellyfish Joels? What do you think?

I'm doing the Full Tilt Rendezvous. Even though it's the same day as Thunder on the Bay Poker Run, we'll be coming back up the bay from NC, and won't really be up for a Poker Run...

I saw it on the Full Tilt website. Sounds like fun. We staying in a rental house on the Elk river that week, so we'll be at Great Oak for one of the days.
Anyone else going???

Thunder on the Bay has been cancelled, so if you were trying to make up your mind, the decision is easier now. Call Full Tilt and sign up for June 26/27. Everyone is getting together at Mears in Kent Narrows on mid-day Saturday, and departing for Fairlee/Great Oaks around 2:00 PM. It's cheap, fun, and you get to hang out on other people's 400SS's and 41PC's. If other Formula go-fasts show up besides us, we can run together.

I'll have the wife and kids with me (my little girl is 14 months old), so I think we'll just look for you at Great Oak in the afternoon.
Hope to see more go-fast Formulas there. C'mon guys, bring your boats!!!

How far is Fairlee/Great Oaks from Kent Narrows in miles? I'll have to look at a chart. While the 242 can "go fast" if there is a chop on the bay I can only run 30-35mph comfortably!
