Rod, I LOVE the idea! I was buggin' Stu earlier in the year about adding an "A" 'rigger class this year. Now I'm more motivated to get my .12 'riggers running then the plan was anyway to get the JAE gas 'rigger in the race next year anyway if I had to run in Open Gas. An event like Hobart is the perfect place to showcase these little boats and show people what we've known all along of how fast and fun they are to run!
Right now I don't know if I'll do it as a team with my son Eric and I or try for it myself as he's a much better driver than I am.
This could be fun, win or lose!

Well the pot has been sweetened.....Al Hobbs of A-A engines has donated a new Rossi AXE top of the line .12 [2.1CC] motor for the "size matters"
challenge at the 2011 Hobart Masters event.......This motor will be added to the Zipp Mfg. $150.00 Gift Certificate and the yet to be determined last place prize.
Geraghty Performance R/C [that being me
] will convert the motor for marine use........That will include a Solinger flywheel installed,flexhex .150" X 1/4-28 Octura collet,the cooling head cut-down for air-cooled use in a boat with a
modified and adapted K&B "black" carb installed on the motor.......
This Rossi AXE motor will be ready to be broken in and raced in a boat.........

Trying to understand... does the winner get all the prizes?
For sure the winners will get first pick of the prizes and as to how many????well we just haven't figured that out yet...... :wacko:
I suspect points will play a role in the distribution............
I suspect we will not make a final decision until we see how many items end up in the prize kitty......
There will also be a prize for the "biggest losers" ....and that has yet to be figured out.....
