Info-
For the last few weeks now, myself and Mark Hopper have been working out the details of an Sport Outboard Highpoints Tribute Race. A Tribute race named in honor of someone who has been very instrumental in racing and promoting the Sport Outboard R/C tunnel classes that we all enjoy today.
The final race will be held in Jackson Tennessee next fall and will be named (as it stands now) "The Tommy Lee Sport Outboard Tribute Series" . This race is a tribute race to all the dedication and effort that this man devoted to this class of Tunnel racing.
We want drivers from anywhere all over the country to be able to qualify for and participate in this final race. In order to do this, we have created a guideline to follow so that all contestants will be following the same format for the class. These guidelines are on a volenteer basis only. This format will not add classes but will simply collect points thru the classes that already exist.
If your local club offers 20 Sport Tunnel or 40 Sport Tunnel classes, and also agrees to check your engine for sport class rules according to the High points guidlines, your points collected at that race will count towards your final score. Choose score totals from any (3) races to qualify.
The final race will include all outboard tunnel classes for anyone to enter but the Sport Tribute Series Classes can only be entered thru collective points collected from you local areas IMPBA, NAMBA OR APBA.
I will be attaching the details for this simple format.
Contest Directors, if you have drivers in your club that you feel could have a chance at winning one of these one of a kind trophies, one for 40 Sport O/B tunnel- 1st place and one for 20 Sport O/B tunnel- 1st place, (normal trophies from 2nd place down will apply in the Sport Classes) contact us so that we can send you the info as it is very straight forward and easy to follow.
Sponsors, C/D's or drivers needing info contact:
Mark Hopper: HTBBoats.com

Once the trophies are finished, I will post a picture of them on IW. They will be very nice w/ plated tunnel boats at the top! I will get the final guideline draft attached to this thread as soon as possible.
All sponsors are welcome to help promote this event.
