You may want to take a look around in your area to see what's being run so that you will have competition. I know that the "B" or .21 classes are really popular in District 4, while gas is not. Winter is building time here also but it drives you nuts having a new boat and a solid pond. You've come to a good site for help and got lucky living in an area with some of the best boaters in the country, if you can win or place at a D-4 race, you've done something.
