Boaters,
The Voodoo Model Boat Club has stepped up and has offered to put on the 2020 IMPBA Nitro Nats. The race will be April 2 - 4, 2020. This is much earlier than usual, but we wanted to beat the summer heat and not conflict with any other major races. Race will be the shootout format.

Attached is the information sheet on the race. Registrations will open up Jan. 4, 2020 on www.racemastersevents.com.

Thanks to the Voodoo club for stepping up and taking this on.
