Which GPS unit do you P class guys like best

Also, if you do get disqualified for breaking out, you can see the posted printout.

If there's only one boat in a race and he breaks out, does anyone care? Wow, I think I'm turning into a buddist!

Chances are he would not break out. But as far as no one caring, I don't know.

Not any OPA races I've been to yet with only one boat in a GPS class.

You can find the race results from the last two years here...

Yes.

I guess I'll admit to being rhetorical. I have one on my shifter kart...

Yes. In OPA, you pick up your unit from Frank, the official break-out guru in the race control trailer, then put it in your boat, then within one hour of the race being over give it back to him for download of info. Otherwise too bad....

I believe they did telemetry testing at a couple of races, including St Clair last year.

(I think I have that right, Dean, Rick, or ?).

Yes Paul you are right, but OPA uses a wireless gps that transmitts back to the GPS trailer. The reason we turn them in is make sure that they are working prior to the race. Frank tests them regularly by driving them around in his truck and linking them to the computer on race weekend.
