Not gonna lie, I couldn't get home fast enough from Matt's Super Bowl party to close entries. I opened it before I left and couldn't believe the rate that it filled. I really hope we have good weather to keep it moving.

Link fixed. Thanks for the heads up.

Entries are now open for the fall Johnston City, IL race. You can enter at our site www.thunderboaters.com We will be doing shirts again this year and are currently working up some prizes to raffle off to our entrants. I'll post more details on that once things are finalized. Hope to see ya'll...

I believe it's mainly a boat count thing with only being a one day event. I do agree that FE Novice has grown a ton just in the last year in D14. B Hydro is very much hit and miss still here though. It can fill to 5-6 entries some races then others it struggles to hit the 3 count.

Matt Ellet- spt 40, 1/8 scale, 1/6 scale James Ellet- spt 40, 1/8 scale, 1/6 scale Gavin Lewis - spt 40, gas hydro, 1/8 scale Wes Ellet - SS gas mono, 1/8 scale, 1/6 scale

Thanks for all the info! I know so little on FE it's sad haha. Especially as someone who puts on races. Has Doug posted anywhere what his set up looks like and what all is in it? I'd like to try to know more on it and something I can look at to put together what everyone is talking about.

Ok, I'll get these regulations added to our site. With these, do I need to plan to do a tech for the winner or anything?

As the scale director of our district, I'll run the rules you want me to. I would feel better know that they are actively being submitted for a vote of change in the official rules but I'll run what you guys need me to within district. Please email me at [email protected] with what they...

Hey everyone, I'm the CD for the Johnston City race and was tipped off that there are questions regarding the 1/8th Scale FE class on here. For my race, I will be following IMPBA rules to the best of my ability. I have very little knowledge of FE but as this is the first time I'm running this...

Love the idea of a census. District members, active, non active and boat counts for what's in the district. Would definitely be info that can be put to use by clubs organizing races.

Thanks for the videos Phil! Here are the results for the weekend.

Hey Everyone. I've had quite a few requests for more info on my "Live" Scoring set up. I'm currently working on a guide that'd I'd also like to make a video for if I can because it can be a lot to explain via text and I'm also not that great at explaining things. However, I wanted to put this...

removed. gotcha! Not sure how I managed that. Thanks! Drivers Meeting will be at 8:30. I'd like to start sooner but unfortunately the sun tends to give us a glare across the lake in the morning. Hopefully we will have some cloud cover so we can start directly after the meeting.

Hey Everyone! Only a week away. Here is the updated roster. If you have any changes you can email me at [email protected] or if you still need to sign up, you still can. We are looking at about 150 boats this year so far so should be a great weekend of racing!
