OVER 20 SCALE BOATS hey Bellinger where are you ? Just got word 1 or 2 more are in the pipeline. PLEASE get those entries in before Wednesday nite,book your rooms now. And remember everyone will be pitting lakeside.

DUDE!!!!!!!! This is KILLING me

I sure hope it will be a repeat for the fall race

Please stop with your Whining & crying!!!! most of these guys came to your atlanta race....... Same Distance To Atlanta to Evansville & Evansville to Atlanta??

Joe,

We really didn't need a comment like that,,,, I think I realize how many of the Indiana crew made the trip to the Spring Nat's. As far as supporting a clubs races, I have been to E-Ville 4 time's in the last 3 years,, So I know exactly how far it is.

Some of us don't have an unlimited budget to play model boats on, and have to pick & choose which we can attend.

A spring/early summer race that I would need to take a Friday & Monday off to attend, just isn't in the cards, when one works in the recreational marine industry!

Rest assured, I will be in E-Ville for the September race.

Several Boaters would be glad to help you out.......... Get your entries in & lets race..........

 

[seaducerpete]

Gonna be a long day Sunday Mikey are you still gonna shoot for four rounds

Yea how many drivers we have now? Maybe you could do the last round only one heat per class with the 6 top point boats finishing up the points for the 4 rounds. That would save some time at the end.

 

[Jeff Schindler]

Gonna be a long day Sunday Mikey are you still gonna shoot for four rounds

Pete brings up a good point.

We have an estimated 37 heats per round. To get 4 rounds in and King of the Lake, we must run 8 rounds per hour. This is not a rushed pace, its 7.5 minutes per heat. We have two retrieve boats, and can retrieve in less than 2 minutes most of the time.

We will work on a plan to keep the pace up.
