Next ,,,,,, to be on the starting block,,,,soon Do not look back now,,,,,,,

Professional driver? This is a hobby for the mechanic, that likes to drive other people's boat. Hope the class survives, but those that are not able to meet the qualifications will be forced to run in a speed spec class instead. I heard the Fountain SVL was recently sold, and they have...

This is a spec class, if you have legal motors , drives and hull,,......., and feel the other team is not legal,,, there should be a method for you to simply post 4-5,000 as a protest,,, but be prepared to loose it,,,,

I recently discussed this issue with SBI, and it appears to be c/w OPA recent actions,,,,,,,There is no need for another class of race boats,, When the older boats ( or the new boats) are not able to keep up with the defined rules of Super Cat Light, Super Vee Lite, or V Limited,,,, they have 3...

Dam, what about the Super V series,,, is that the same issue? I was hopeing to see some of these fleets in NY this weekend,,, May have to wait until Key West,,,Obama Economics is hitting all sports...

Places like Dog Days, benifit by having these nice boats at there dock,, why do these boat owners pay to park there boat? They should pay you to have your boat parked there , to promote there bussiness interesting twist

I called the old Horney Toad place ( OSS race site last year),, changed name to "Camden on the Lake",,, they still had rooms yesterday. They were promoting specials,,,,,, with a dock!!

----------------------------------------- OSS Races: only 2 events for 2010 Biloxi, & Cumberland,,, maybe 2011? SBI @ OSS event: Biloxi OSS @ SBI events: Sarasota, Michigan City, and maybe the October Race ? " Super Secret Double Points Rumor " ?......... Typically the "National Events"...

They will toss you out for sure...... I have been to LOTO great place for Boating,, it was highly recognized in this month powerboat magazine

I asked a few SVL racers if there were coming to Sarasota, and got a dismal response,,, Is that because the SBI charges a annual hull entry fee that starts the year before in Key West?, ( in addition to a registrations fee)? Sure would be nice to see this fleet of boats there,, the community...

How fast was the SVL running in that SI rough water race? Top speeds? 75+ I think the Cat Lite had an average lap speed around 85 When is the next stop for the SVL tour? Sarasota SBI event?

??? Have you ever contolled a V bottom in excess of triple digits?, 120+, 130+?. To master this speed in a boat and then step down to a smaller boat with less acceleration, and speed............... is the best learning curve any team could dream for. Consider observing one of the Geico Team...

+++++++++++++++++++++ I agree , .......remember a few days ago, the chatter was the "doc's" team did not have experience....., and the Big Water was going to be an "equalizer" for the race............. It was indeed, they were on the groove,, The way that boat flew, was identical to the showing...

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I was impressed with the way that "Doc' and Brain pushed that boat through some rough water,,, they had that boat flat and consistent. I heard that it was "Doc"Janssen first time in the boat,, as his son did not show up to Sunny Isles Great Job to everyone that made...

great shots,,,,,,,,,,,,l will be watching from the beach this weekend,,,,, forcast will be HOT and full of festivities planned w OPA save travels,,,
