Class 2.5

[DrGaryDC]

I was excited to hear about the possibility of a 100mph class, half class 2 half class 3, which Smitty through out there on Sat night. What are you thoughts on this. Would this excite anyone??

Stop reinventing the wheel and bring back class 2 while still offering a SV, SVL and SS (If boat count and people want it)

 

[Wahoo 214]

too many already

Agreed. why create a class for 1 or 2 boats?

 

[DrGaryDC]

Or just create a 100mph class, just a thought. Its not gonna be exciting my first year out with 2 or 3 boats in my class, but what do i know

 

[2TR]

Class 1: 115
Class 2: 105 (bring back)
Class 3: 95
Class 4: 85
Class 5: 75
Class 6: 70

Super V (Open speeds)**
SVL (Open speeds) **
SuperStock (Open speeds)**

** Spec classes will be run if 4 or more boats show up.

Dr.
If your Apache can run 100mph, there is no reason you can not win it C2. Especially in the rough water. The Fountains in C2 run 105 at the very end of smooth water straights some times.

My goal my rookie year was just to stay alive. You'll have all the excitement you can handle I'm sure. Good luck and stay dry!

Exactly, build a boat for a class not a class for a boat.

 

[DrGaryDC]

Who is currently set up for C2

 

[Wanted Racing]

All my sh_t is already dialed in for class 3, plus to many class's already

Thats fine that your chits set up for 3 already, but to say we have to many P Classes at 6? :huh:

 

[Wahoo 214]

The only thing I would like to see is a way to get all the 525 Bravo Vees to run in the SV class, even if it requires a little help with hp or weight for the non Fountains.

I know that Bill is set up to run C3 and it would cost $ to change the set up, so it is nothing that should be forced on anyone.

I Would not want to have Bill rebuild either, but my comment was more directed at "to many class" statement.

When did Smitty come up with this idea before the alcohol or after the alcohol:sifone: Howard, R&S Racing

 

[DrGaryDC]

Haha, was mentioned when someone brought up the concern about no more class 2. Before the cocktails began, woohoo

 

[1waterboy1]

I think in time there will be enough boats for both Class 2 and Class 3.OPA should bring Class 2 back.

1st sounds like u need a fukin boat, second, stand on the beach or on a breakwater an listen to the coments people make, people who don't know the rules, just think we are all out there racin each other not in seperate classes and if the big cats or vees are runnin at the same time they are always the winners. so i stick to my answer TO MANY CLASS'S ALREADY!!!!:boxing_smiley: ps. my chit can sit on the trailer as far as i am concerned, I'll just race my drag car instead.

 

[2TR]

So lets combined class than.

Class A: 1 & 2 run 107mph
Class B: 3 & 4 run 90mph
Class C: 5 & 6 Run 72mph

I am better with that idea than more class's, and i have been workin on runnin with the super vees, but it starts to add up $$. the only way to really be competative would be to rerig the whole boat and put different drives on it or get a different one. Theres just not enough return on all of that investment to move forward with that option:banghead:
