Yes - major points - I took note don't worry. ;)

You wouldn't want any of my cooking anyway :lol: Looking forward to some great racing now that it looks like the hurricane is going to miss us. See you this weekend!

I'm making "special" food for anyone racing "the boy" and Preston so they are temporarily unable to drive well ;) but yes the Navy is supposed to be feed the rest of the crowd this year. :lol: I've been so busy I have not talked to the one in charge but I know we are on their calendar and...

Yes Dad (Larry Hibbert) still runs one but has had a rough year and will not be participating as a racer this time - broke his collar bone a few weeks ago in a bicycle wreck. Even though I'm his pit person the chances of re-injury are too risky. Tommy (the boy) will be there with his as well...

Yeah well the trophy order conversation was just you and me and now I get to play CMA for the "announcement" from the "Christi's Model Boat Club". I have the bases covered for trophies no worries. Bring on the boats!

Whoa whoa whoa - we DEFINITELY make decisions as a group and the trophy place orders extras for me just in case and I was planning on holding out in case entries came in. Just seeing this post now - holy cow what a can a worms to open - cannot cancel a class before the deadline when we put it...

Just lined up security and also working on having the Navy Chief Petty Officer Selectees come out and feed us again this year. Also I am available to pit for gas boats when I'm not doing club stuff or having to "police" you boys; And "the boy" is also quite the pit man when he's free from...

I don't normally get "politcally" involved on here - post the flyer once a year and push our invitational - but WAAAY to kidnap a thread GOOD GRIEF! Our club normally has a good turnout for crackerbox, the only issue being we switched to Saturday vs. Sunday racing and that has hindered some...

Don can you update us on the entries when you have a chance?

I would love to see you come out as would all of the club!

The "little man" sprouted to my height (ok, I'm short but you know what I mean) in a year and is pretty full of himself - I think he has every intention of trying to win again of course. He beat his grandfather this weekend in crackerbox, however Preston was having to "reschool" him some in...

The Old Dominion Model Boat Association of Chesapeake, VA is pleased to announce its 16th Annual Invitational and District 12 points race on August 23rd and 24th. Race flyer is attached with all information; entry deadline is August 18th; Entries need to be mailed to Don Ferrette with payment...

Awesome Scott thanks a bunch!

Hey all - Here's our schedule for the year, including the D12 and a few select other races. Would love to see you come out to Chesapeake! 2008_Full_District_12_Schedule_of_events.doc

It was so cold and nasty even Don couldn't help - Preston's got pics in his album I think - I look 50 lbs heavier just because of all the layers I had on to stay warm. Hopefully this year they will have good weather - so much work and really long days for these guys just to sit and wait if the...

The last 3 trials down here have been more about watching the wind blow than anything else. That wasn't the wind - that was just Don talking again for two days straight :lol: - I was there running the timing equipment freezing my butt off that one year - no boats to listen to, just him...

I think if you get Don talking enough he would qualify as a high performance leaf blower :lol: And I am now reminded of the culprits for those who taught Tommy FROG but thankfully Freaking Really Old Guys... Happy Birthday John!

Hi Beryl - I also got the email you sent to Dad (club president) - just sent you an email w/a boatload :lol: of information and an application for membership for next year. Unfortunately our last race is on Sep 22 but come on and check us out!

:lol: ALL RIGHT Tommy is standing here reading all the kudos - I'm going to have to shrink the grin so his face will fit through the door :P This race weekend is the most fun I've had at a boat race in a long time - hope to see you all back next year!

I was very nervous about the 9 boat race but could not possibly be a prouder Mom at this moment. Tom has never finished a race at the invitational - his nerves usually get the best of him. This was simply amazing to be able to see. We weren't even done unloading the van and he was asking me to...
