I'll be there! If you have never been there, it's a real nice pond. I know the Ford club has been doing a lot of work there, only to make it nicer.

Josh.....are you going this weekend?

Hi Tom, yes we have been doing alot of work at the Ash Township pond. The new stair case has been completed. We are looking at adding some gravel on the lower level. The site is really shaping up.

Unfortunately I will not be able to make the race this weekend. Have Fun, Josh-

Bump.

Attention all D2 racers just a little over 2 weeks till the Power Stroke Classic. Don't wait get your entries in.

Great location for all the Ohio racers as we are south of the city not far from the border. This race site has the highest drivers stand on the circuit. You will be driving approx. 15' above the pond. This race is a High Points event.

 

[Josh Stollfuss]

I have enough boats entered to make this race a "GO". I could use some nitro boats to fill up the heats. This will be a smaller race and good chance to pick up points. If you are planning on attending please get you're entries in.

This is what I have entered so far for the race this Saturday, June 26th. The race is a go. We have enough entries to run the race.

Gas:

Mono - 9

Gas Sport Hydro - 7

Gas Cat - 8

Thunder Boat - 7

Jersey Skiff - 4

Cracker Box - 4

Nitro:

B Hydro - 3

D Hydro - 1

E/F Hydro - 0

Sport 40 - 6

1/8 Scale - 10

I expect a few more entries before the end of the week. With the limited number of entries this race is a good opportunity to pick up D2 points in the gas classes and the nitro classes. I will run Jersey Skiff and Cracker Box with only two boats, but I would like to see another boat in each class. If you plan to attend please get your entries in.

(edit) updated totals. I have 59 boats entered with 10 1/8 scales, Which is the biggest class! Could use a couple of b and D hydros. Where are all the nitro hydros??? Thanks, Josh-

[Josh Stollfuss]

I had a suggestion from Juice that I thought might work out well. I can drop the E/F Nitro rigger class since we have had no entries and add an open Hydro Class. This would be open to any hydros, gas riggers, gas sport hydros, gas cats, and any nitro hydros or riggers.

Send me an email if you are interested in this class over a gas rigger class?

Thanks, Josh-

 

[Dan Kramer]

do you have food/concessions or r we on our own?
