Very cool, the Salt Lake gang put on an amazing race event. Nice site, stupid hot and real challenge to find HP and a tune under those conditions. Make sure your cooler is full of ice and cool drinks!

 

[Rokieboater]

Should be much cooler this time of year. We are staying away from Stupid Hot August on purpose.

Hope to see you there Greg.

No Sport 20? 

 

[Rokieboater]

We are willing to add or delete classes as needed. IF a group of racers wishes to add a class they can email me. Once the class has made 5 entries (e-mails to me) we will put it on the schedule. We will not add a class until these five racers have entered and paid.

We want to be as accommodating as possible and are willing to work hard to ensure everyone enjoys themselves at our event.

Hope that makes sense. My email  [email protected]

 

[Jarcaines]

Awesome! That’s very helpful. I think we might be able to pull some sport 20 racers from District 8. I’ll see what I can do.

 

[Rokieboater]

If you are wishing to get an additional class added to the schedule.......

Gentlemen,1, Enter the Race2. Email us the class you wish to be offered that is not on the entry form.3. When we have 5 paid entries with request for an additional class we will offer it.4. We will not offer or add a class until we have 5 racers that have already entered and THEN requested an additional class. Been there done that.... Offered classes and the individuals never showed up.... had a bunch of two and three boat classes that had to be dropped and it was a pain.5. We want to make sure we accommodate as much as possible and this seems the best way.You can always contact Karl Loveless or myself privately if you need further clarification.Thanks for all of the interest and I hope we can add classes for you racers..Robert Holland
