Hi Mike,

Please add me to open rigger - DSM

Bill,

even if you aren't going to race it, can you bring your Lauterbach? I'd love to see it.

 

[Mike Betke]

Thanks I'm really excited to see my first race and maybe participate next season!

I would expect that it would go to around 5 with the amount of boats we are getting. Stop by the CD area and we will get you all the info you need to get you racing in the future. There is a lot of help available to you with the club members to get you going.

Still not happy with the set up, waiting on the right prop. I'll bring the hangar queen Jim.

Race entries are coming along good. Over 70 boats so far. Get your entries in by tomorrow as it is filling up fast. There are a lot of names that I would expect that have not entered yet.

Looks like Gas Cat is full. RTR will be cancelled, no entries so far and we are almost full.

Race is shaping up good with 80 boats entered. We had enough open hydros to divide into two classes. We will run the gas riggers together and the nitro riggers together.

Weather report looks good. See everybody on Sunday.

 

[Bill Green]

Mike , my son Jason had to bow out, so I'll be running T boat, 27 mono and rigger. Scratch the hydro.

Thanks

Bill Green

 

[Mike Betke]

Got it Bill.

See you tomorrow.

70°, light and variable winds. much better than the junk weather we had today.

Agreed, thanks to OWMBC for a really fun day of racing. I haven't had that much fun racing in awhile.

I need to give a BIG thanks to "The Hawk Whisperer"!!!! If it wasn't for Dad having all of the set up information and help on that boat; I will still be trying to figure stuff out!

Later,

Ball
