Racers and Fans
Experience the Ultimate Thrill of Offshore Racing at the

Looking forward to seeing the racers :)

B&E Marine in M.C. is once again offering racers free storage before and after the race if needed. Call B&E and spoeak with Bryce.

My wife and two kids will be on the beach watching we haven't missed one yet. Did miss the start of the second race because I thought with the rain they ran all the boat at one time and we were at the zoo when the start of the second race started so we had to hurry thru the zoo to get back to the beach to see the race.

Is it legal to drink beer on the beach?

Only if you have enough to share................ :) Last few years they were selling it.. We brought and drank and had no problems...............

The "Must Thing to Do" on Saturday is to hit the docks and share some brews/stories with the Obnoxios crew! To me, thats one of the highlights.. Along with the parade.... The fam and I tried to make some funny signs with poster board... Best part is , who will never know who you will see!! The first person that can tell who is in the pic with my Dad and I, I will personally send you a cig shirt........! Just shows how much fun this weekend is! It is one of my top 3's!!

You got to know what significance he has played in the Perf Boating industry.... It just shows how much fun this weekend is! It is one of my top 3's!!

Stan lane Face of SBI.

thanks

I will be there.

Dont forget to get your paper work in guys for your bonus point.
Miami is double points race this yr, so the bonus point will add up.

Count us in !

After the last show you and Billy put on in Mih City, you are going to have to bring your A game. Round two should be one heel of a race, it was one of the best battles I have seen in yrs.

Since JD BYRIDER Racing is in for Michigan City, then I definitely will be there. It will be my first to watch race in Michigan City! Can't wait! :) :)

Chris

Other commitments have created a late start for our 2012 Racing Season ........., we plan to be part of the Michigan City program
Team Watch Your Back

Glad to see ya guys back!!!

Both of the Byrider boats will be there the SuperCat and the SVL.

is it a better view to watch from your boat or from shore. How close do they let you get if your on the water.

Both are good, there was a huge fleet of boats out there last yr. Not sure exactly how close but you are right on the outter edge of the track.

About how many race boats are registered?

ttt ??

Wouldn't you think someone representing SBI would at least attempt to say something positive ?

no boat count until that weekend!!!

Chris

I would guess that there will be about 2o boats there. Should be a good extreme class race and good Super Stock race.

Could be 4 Super Cats if JR is ready in time...

Applebees stepd up for offshore racing. Thanks to frank. Support them eat there

Hey Ryan,
I should be at the race as a spectator. If I run into you I wanted to talk about getting some numbers and Logo made for across the fairing on my little apache...
Jr.

Just a few days , spoke to Jason the stage is set and the fans are ready this will be a good one.

I plan on attending the race although unfortunately purely as a spectator, the Stihl boat will not be ready...

JR

Ahhhhh...plan to meet you there as I will be there this weekend....Other time :)

Chris

I'll be there Friday am. My 6 yr old boy is excited, one of the highlights of his summer for sure

magic....make sure u bring your boy by, lets set him in the boat and get a picture. If Im not around see ANDY

jr great your coming ,

Magic, I wanna add Tony's post....Trust me, it will be awesome to get on his boat and get a picture....That is one thing your son will never forgot!!! :)

P.S. Tony, I will see you Friday

Chris

Thanks so much. I will be sure to stop by that will mean the world too him. He asked me the other day, why we did put numbers on our boat so we could race. Lol.

Andy

I still remember when my dad took me to the pits way back when. I got RF Sr's autograph that day. Trust me I not gonna pass up the chance.

4 to 7 footers predicated for Sunday out of the north 10 to 20 MPH winds. Going to be some air time Mark:whistle:

Where'd you see that forcast. I just checked NOAA and they are calling for waves around a 1' for Sunday. Not buying that with the winds forcasted but???

Are you and the rest of the T dockers going to make the trip over to this side of the pond???
