The 2006 WI Sardine Classic, July 22-23

[drobie]

The 2006 Sardine Classic in Mazomanie WI will be held on July 22-23.

Contact is [email protected]. We will once again seek sanctioning from NAMBA.

Website: http://www.madisonrcboats.org/classic/

All events will be run on an 1/8 mi. course. Tentatively, 4 laps for N classes, 5 laps for O and above with the exception of LSO and LSH which will be 8 laps (1 mi.) each.

A complete class schedule is pending. Classes run will be chosen by a vote of all past participants.

Doug,

We have found that the N-2 classes can run 5 laps on the same size course. No changes made to setups.

Thanks Alan. I agree.

But what about the 6 cell brushed classes?

 

[AlanN]

I haven't tried a Brushed setup on that course yet.

I would suspect they could run 5 but not sure.

Doug when will you know about the class's? Is offshore going to be offered

Kelly, All are classes run offshore. We're not a bench racing club.

what I ment is are you offering N2 though T and maybe 1/8th scale. I know you guys offer some offshore I am just wonder which ones.

I won't be able to make michigan this year do to a stupid wedding that I HAVE to go to or sleep on the couch the rest of my married life. LOL so your race would be the first one I could race the new 1/8th at.. If you offer it of course

 

[drobie]

Kelly,

Bummer on MI. That has to hurt.

We're getting more into Offshore, but I wouldn't count on S and above. P for sure, LSO for sure and several of us now have Q hulls.

1/8 scale would depend on who attends, because no one who has attended our race in past except Paul has an 1/8 scale.

We'd like to keep it to 14 classes or less, but if 5 guys with 1/8 scale boats come calling, I think we could squeeze it in. They're cool enough to be worthy of a little squeezing of the schedule.

Our race offerings will always ultimately be decided by a vote of participants. That vote will come after the first of the year.

For now, we primarily just wanted to nail down the date.

 

[brooks93]

cool doug thanks.

was just wondering. I am going to try and make this one so count 1 for 1/8th

 

[drobie]

I am going to try and make this one so count 1 for 1/8th

A couple months back Paul promised to be around, so that makes 2 if he makes it. If others that can't attend just want to ship their 1/8 scales, we'll run the boats for them. LOL

Doug,

Can't wait for the Q offshore, mine will be ready, I will also have an S offshore that can possibly run in T also

Now all I need is 1/8 Scale.

Hi Doug,

Paul promises to be around, so that makes 2.

Really? Did I say that? What was I thinking? :blink:

Paul.

 

[photohoward1]

I will do my best. 1/8th scale and Offshore?

S &T Mono maybe?

 

[drobie]

Really? Did I say that? What was I thinking? :blink:

Paul.

Not since you moved, but you did say this past summer that our race would be one of events you continue to attend annually.

BTW, nice to see you around. I won't ask if you're settled...judging from the Xmas letter, I know that will be awhile.

Stuff changes, but your suite at Chateau Drobie is permanently reserved. (We got some new Aero-beds. LOL)

S &T Mono maybe?

Realistically, it would take a miracle for the big mono classes to make the schedule in 2006.

Sorry Howard.

Hi Douggie-mon,

Not since you moved, but you did say this past summer that our race would be one of events you continue to attend annually.

Glad you're alive, well and despite the move to the swamps...haven't change a bit.

 

[Paul Pachmayer]

Hi Doug,

Would you want it any other way, lol.

Can't imagine it any other way and no, I wouldn't want it.
