SBI Press Release
#1
May 1, 2009 Network Show
Race Members of Super Boat International
May 1, 2009
Super Boat International announced last week that there are eight (8) one hour Prime Time Network shows for this year. CBS Sports Network will bring weekly offshore boat race programming to millions of race fans beginning in October.
In the past Super Boat International has been on cable, but with Network there are different procedures to follow.
CBS Sports Network will have a producer attending the Marathon race to work with SBIP’s TV staff. Following the Saturday morning drivers meeting in Marathon we will address the standards and practice that must be followed. Before any race boat secures sponsorship, it must come through Super Boat International for approval so there are not any conflicts.
Race boats participating in Marathon – please fax your entry forms to 305-296-9770.
REMINDERS
National Championship - rule book page 67, Rule 2A – General Rules
To be eligible for the National Championship a team must have competed in a minimum of 70 percent of the designated National Series events inclusive of the National Championship race. 70 percent of the National Races; based on the 8 race schedule equal 6 races.
Kilo Run -
There is a Kilo Run schedule during the Sarasota race for Friday, July 3, 2009. Information on the Kilo Run will be posted on Monday, May 4th on the SBIP web site by clicking on Events and selecting Kilo Run.
The Kilo will run from 7am – 12 noon.
The order of the Kilo is determined by the order of the paid entry forms received.
If you have any questions, give me a call at 305-296-6166 or see me in Marathon.
