B) Guys,
2006 has been an incredible year of RC boating at beautiful Lake Victoria and Igloo! We have almost doubled the size of the club this year and have the promise of even more members in 2007. All in all a GREAT YEAR!
Now....Because of the impending Christmas holiday our last offical meeting of 2006 will be Saturday the 9th.
I would like to propose that we make this a special event, and that we each actively encourage all the HOTMBC'ers to make it out to beautiful Lake Victoria for some end of the year racing fun.
Toward that end I would like to propose:
1.) The HOTMBC LSH Scramble! In this event we would have three boat heats, boats that place score points(1st=50, 2nd=25, 3rd=15, DNF=0) There would be enough heats where everyone would run one three boat heat with everyone else. Then the final race would be a Scramble where all the boats would run together scoring as follows: 1st=100, 2nd=75, 3rd=50, Finish=25, DNF=0, Bouy cuts get a one lap penalty. The top three point scorers receive a HOTMBC "2006 LSH Winter Scramble" plaque to affix wherever they think suitable.
2.) The HOTMBC 2006 Sport Hydro Shootout. This would be an elimination tournament of 2 boat, 4 lap heats. Lose two heats and your out of the competition. Pairings would be made by drawing straws. Hydros or tunnel hull boats with any power system with a maximum of 12 cells qualify. The winner gets a unique plaque or trophy.
3.) "Mono a Mono" Offshore Boogie! This would be a mono-hull offshore race series where any boat coming in last or DNF is eliminated from the next round. The Offshore Boogie culminates in an all out two boat race for the prize, the "HOTMBC 2006 Offshore Boogie Cup", this would be rough equivalent to the Valdosta Hooters Cup.
This would be a full day of racing, and would certainly be the most fun if everyone participated in as many races as possible.
Whaddya Think? Whose up for an event like this?
