At this point, both Todd Cragin and myslef are running DSH. Just got my airline ticket today to fly to Reno! If the mod commission would approve the mighty Tohatsu for D mod, I would run that class also..but no such luck. Dave Anderson

Oh so you are going to make your $$$$ deposit in RNO.

Reno

Haha....well...Todd, myself and his son Chris drove from Seattle to Reno the day before testing at Divisionals last month. They had never been there..I have been there tons of times. We all made money, aside from Chris, which usually does not happen. But, I really messed up this time...I did not know that "Hot August Nights" is in full swing they day I fly in...boy..did I have a hard time getting a room....Oh yah..back to the thread topic...Are you guys going to print up a schedule ahead of time? I did not do that for the 07 Moses Lake nationals...Also...is there going to be testing Monday? Looks like you guys are going to have a pretty good showing of boats from the "other coast"

On-Line registration on the Region 11 web site is now open. WWW.boatracingr11.com

[bill boyes]

ON-line entries are starting to come in. There has been some confusion regarding Pre-Registration. Once we know that you are attending you may add a class after the close date not a problem we will accept the entry. also if you are not sure classes you are going to race just enter them and when you check in just inform the Chief Scorer that you will not race that class.and all she will need to do is hit the delete Key in the computer program. simple. Questions please ask.

If someone from the east could bring back some pipes I bought from Dale Bishop, I'd appreciate it. I can pick them up at Lock Haven or Millville.

[/QUOTE]

I may be a little confused by the formatting, but does this really mean what it says, "$60 per entry, per day?"

The way I read it, if elims and finals for the same class are run on separate days, then some very unhappy drivers will have to pay $120 just for that class.

True or False?

[Morris85C]

You will pay 60.00 per boat per class only. It will not be 120.00 if you run 3 heats of racing in the same class. Unless you can some how run 3 boats at the same time lol lol lol Just playing See you all at the Nats.
