This race has consistently become bigger and better every year due to the hard work and determination of the NLMBC members.

If you are looking for some good competition with some great people , then you don’t want to miss this one.

One of the very best race sights in IMPBA with hotels and restaurants just minutes from the pond.

Please mark this one on your calendar you won’t regret it and bring it cause your gonna need it. B)

I have talked to a number of people who are excited about coming back as well as those coming for their first time after hearing about how good this race is.

It is one of the best sites around period , and with Terry and Randy on the stand you know it will run smoothly and fairly.

Looking forward to this one .

Talked to Chris Krawczyk and it we should have a good FE turnout, drag Alan up and your 1/8th scales, love to see them run!

 

[photohoward1]

Saw Alan today. He can't make it. No 1/8th scales anymore. Haven't had one since it got trashed at your race a few years ago. Been working on one though for a while. "Smokin Joes"

The "Super 8" (5 mins from the pond) has a great deal if you book 2 weeks in advance, 25% off the $74.95 regular rate, I stay there all the time, it isn't fancy but clean and usually quiet.

Just under 2 weeks and 122 boats entered.

Shaping up to be a great D1/D2 race.

We could use a couple more E/F hydros for this race , lots of room to really let them run.

[Terry Keeley]

Just over a week to go now, shaping up nicely!

Speaking of shaping up nicely, I've just got confirmation our off duty Flight Attendants will be making an appearance Saturday to sell raffle tickets.

Hey Terry,

Is there a deadline for entry? I am still trying to get my ducks in a row. Things are changing daily for me between work and the wife... (long story)

Later,
