Is the Mod VP class still going strong?

[OB HYDRO]

I am very interested in the Mod VP class and was wondering if it is a popular class?That was and still is my favorite OPC class.

At the WTC, yes.

 

[Andy Greene]

There are PLENTY of them in D-3 also - The class will be offered at The Herb Stewart Challenge again this year also.

I really dont know anyone in the midwest area that had any of them. I know Marty Slater (lives here in Iowa) is going to be putting one together, but just sort of a fun thing.

 

[Marty Slater]

I would love to get one for the WTC.My whole family wants to race.My youngest is 14 and my oldest is 18.I would love to see my family race together.I raced kneel down hydros for 15 years but gave it up with knee problems.

The class turns out well every year at the WTC. Actually if there was still a nitro series in the disctrict it would do well there too. Everytime I have been to Brandon Fl. we have a good time with them. We need to get the hull rules in the book so everyone who is interested is on the same page. It mirrors the lifesize class.

Ran my last fall it is cool need to be Mark boat so it like the lifesize not something @#$%^&* MC

The Mod Vp class, in my opinion, is the most fun class there is to run. We even do a modified le mans start at the Herb Stewart race.Andy post a link to some of the videos. It is a shame more people don't run the class.

Bob.......it's a shame these haven't caught on up here. These are such a rush to watch and they put on one heckuva race.

Get ahold of Mark Poole and get one ordered.......his boats are some of the best I've seen and you shouldn't have to worry

about meeting the rules if they do take off up north.

 

[Andy Greene]

I for one can't wait to see what Stebbins comes up with from his E-Bay find -_-

Any updates Robin ???

Ron you said - " you shouldn't have to worry

about meeting the rules if they do take off up north."

Do they differ from what Mark has laid out ??
