With the HobbyExpo 2004 so close..
Lets take a moment to talk to the re-sellers and the manufactures of high performance boating about showing products and why is it we see so little of it.... also those of you that are not into manufacturing parts or kits your input is healthy too.
Let me explain. Most every race I attend I like to take a full line of products we offer. It has just as much for me to do with selling stuff as it has to do with letting the boater know that Power Surge Racing Products, LLC. is there to help them with their needs. At the Internats this year I saw what I felt was a OK list of re-sellers but only OK. It was nice to see Futaba showing there products but what about..
Dumas
Aeromarine
SpeedMaster
Hughy
Octura
ABC
On and on and on…
At the next Chicago show..or heck the IMPBA Internats or NAMBA Nats lets see..
Competition Marine Design there
B+M leecraft there
Marine Specialties there
Rocket city racing there
PHM racing there
Tanks 4-U there
Seaducer there
Hopper tunnels there
Props 4-U there
Reptile racing there
Aeromarine there
Racecraft bearings there
Crapshooter boats there
PB there
Tidewater there
Speedmaster there
Octura there
ABC there
Hughy there
Geraghty performance (Hi Rod)
West Systems
More and more and more and more… sorry if I did not name you..
The list goes on and on of other great dealers of boat products but you will likely not see any of them there. Hard to grow a healthy sport when nobody knows they can get cool stuff like this.
Man o man we have some good stuff out there..and just think.. we are still nothing more then a cult sport. We complain about growth, we blame the organizations that we belong to for any decline in numbers and we sit and wait for the hobby to grow its self..
Bottom line.. you have to water “something” to get it to grow. We have the something we just lack the water.
Maybe at the next big race IMPBA Internats and or the NAMBA Nats.. we offer up two days of dealers to the racers.. This area and time would be for the MFG and re-sellers to showcase their products and services. Its not reaching out side our main market but it would be a good start.
Thoughts?
