HOBART 2015

[Ron Olson]

What is start time?

Remember to put your controller in a plastic bag and wrap in foam so it floats!!!

at least tie a bobber to it.

He was just doing some testing for Futaba! That TX had to have been underwater for a good 20 minutes and it still worked!

 

[Dan Pralle]

It was underwater a while and I still use it today. It however is a flysky!

Bruce I dropped a boat so I can help with boat retrieve as well

Just a reminder, there is to be No setup until Tuesday morning. I will be there early Monday morning to layout the grass areas for maximum canopy use. I will be trying some different things with trailers this year. If you setup before I get things laid out, you will most likely have to move your stuff. If it's Hot this year, bring your generator as the power plugs around the area will not handle much load. You cannot park in the spaces around the apartments. The course will be set Monday barring any weather issues, open water will be available after that is complete. Also for those coming up from the south, 65 is closed by Lebanon, and the detour uses hywy 52 and is slow. You may want to use 31 or 421 and cut back over after Lafayette.

Thanks for update

I am sure I can help in the chase boat as well towards the end of the round. In between F and twin.

Safe Travels to all my racing friends,see you in a few days. The Daytona 500 of rc model boats is upon us!

I'm not trying to scare anyone but those of you coming in on I-94, keep your eyes open from I-69 to the east side of Battle Creek as someone has been shooting at cars on the highway. So far there have been 25 reports but probably many more that people didn't realize what was going on. If it sounds like a rock hit your car, keep on going for a while until you can pull over and check it out then call 911. Luckily so far, nobody has been hit. Just and FYI for those coming in from Canada or the east side of Michigan.

 

[Alan Elzer]

Thanks Ron...
