Sport hydro classes

[Ken Webb]

What kind of turn out does the nitro sport hydro classes have in Fla? I live about 30miles east of Tampa.

Name ?, spider, back in the day, 2005-2010, Sport 20, Sport 40 and Scale were well attended, dont let this distract you, get a hold of the Tampa or Brandon club, join, participate, race, what ever it takes to keep these classes active.

There were 6 sport40 signed up for the dist 3 melbourne race. This was a point race but a bit of cool weather and the fact that it is only two weeks before the bigger winternats race probaly caused a lower count. Sport 40 is quite poplular in FL.

I went to the race and it was a good time.

The last race in So. Georiga, We had 8 scale boats and 11 sport 40's . Rick Berden and the SOWEGA guys put on a fine race. We still have a group of sport and scale Guys that race both IMPBA and NAMBA in No. Fla. The Next race will be in Feb. Come check it out ! Dave

There is a bunch of Sport 20 hydros sitting in garages and basements, mine included...we did run em a good bit a few years ago at both the 1 day WCRA races and sometimes at the district 3 two day races....usually had from 5 to as many as 9 boats for the class. Though i havent been activly racing for a while, The Sport 20 and 40 Hydro classes and 60 Scale were my favorite classes, and as Joe said contact the Brandon or Tampa boat clubs and get the sport hydro classes going again as they are really fun boats to run.
