I was hoping the race would get 180 boats! Looks like 200 boats is a good probability! NITRO ROCKS!

We are forced to close the entries for additional heats for the Nitro Winter Championships. We will fill the classes that haven't made for an even 6 boat number and take wait list entries. Check your class to see if there are openings and get in right away to reserve your spot. We hate to have to close the entries, but in order to get the race completed, it is absolutely necessary.

If you find that your class is full when you try to enter, write me a message saying that you want to be on the wait list and I will put you on based on the date you requested.

We are amazed at the interest and this makes us thing that this should be an annual event. We also plan to put on 2 more nitro only races during 2015. One will be at St Petersburg and one at Jeremy Edge's pond down South. Dates for these races have not been determined.

With the number of heats that we have to date, it will make it really difficult to complete the 3 rounds of qualifying and the 2 championship rounds for the top 6 boats in each class.\\

Olly:

I would assume so, but the organizing group has not specifically decided that. I will bring that up at the next meeting and let everyone know.

I have talked to several who wanted to attend this race, but most of the popular classes are already closed.

Looks like a Winter Nitro race in Florida could pull in 300 boats. It would have to be a three day event.

Next year maybe?

Nitro is NOT dead!

Have them get on the Wait List as people typically drop out in some measure, as you know.

The "Wait List" is great for local racers.

Mike will we have enough daylight to run til 6pm? I know typically we do til 5pm?

 

[Mike Culhane]

OK I'll clarify...county says we can run till 6pm. We will give the competitors all the time we can, light permitting.
