Ahh, OK, Wasn't sure how that worked. Didn't see that when I was reading there the seemingly 300 pages of rules! haha

[James E Beasley]

Forced to sell my backup 20 Mod boat, RTR, all new equipment. Need cash fast. Check it out in the For Sale forum. Special boat for that special guy. Thanks, James Beasley - See you at the WTCs!

 

[Mike Luszcz]

We still don't have enough to make up the spec FE tunnel? I might as well just stay home! lol, this is depressing. Mike

 

[James E Beasley]

If you need GAS OB Flex Shafts for the upcoming WTCs, see my post in the For Sale Forum please. I am trying to help everyone out. Your Welcome, James Beasley

 

[dizzy dean]

[julianconde]

i wish everyone good luck and have fun :lol:

 

[Moparbarn Jr]

Hey James, Bonnie has to work. It looks like I will be running sport B tunnel in her place. I think she planned it this way <_<

 

[Mike Luszcz]

Will there be an updated list soon. The FE spec class failing or succeeding is my only hope of going. Mike

 

[rumrunner]

how many boats are entered now

 

[Bill Britton]

Four, unless Gabe has more. Won't know until the updated list is posted.

Emerging classes can be tough. Hope you stick it out and make the race as just a few more boats can make it happen. We are trying to promote the "stock" SS 40 class here in Fl and takes a few guys to get together and even share equipment sometimes. Takes a class captain to organize everyone and herd them into some races. You probably know more FE guys than anyone that doesn't run them so beat the correct bushes. Gas tunnels are struggling but turning the corner. Mark Poole and myself have done some seeding in the Mod-VP class and it is starting to take hold. We all love numbers and competition and that is why the WTC is an important event as it is a showcase for outboards and growing new classes will start easier at large events.

since tim dean found a spitfire to enter ob rigger to fill the class so we could run, i made a similar offer to mike. unfortunately, he only has 1 p-spec tunnel ready. if anyone has one they are willing to loan me for the wtc, i would gladly enter to help fill this class. i have extra rx's, so i can run my radio, but NOTHING else to support fe. i would need battery charging help at the race. lmk, time's gettin' short...........

 

[Mike Luszcz]

I had a competitive FE tunnel for the open tunnel class, but speed controller failures over the last week have put me in a position to not have my top boat ready. It sucks! Miked

The LAKE gods ate my MOD VP yesterday bummer it was running good.. OUCH
