We have some fun things planned to do for the week and some great event venues for you to enjoy! Your 2023 Nationals committee is putting some specialty classes in the schedule this year that have not been run in any other Nationals along with all your normal favorite Electric, Nitro and Gas classes. (Specialty Classes are: Open Mono, Single Super Boat and Twin Super Boat) Please make sure to read the Class specifications on the entry form for those classes.
