ss racing newport??

[blueskyracer]

The river at Newport is still high with no beach. The water is up to the base of the bushes. Myself and Karl took pictures and showed them to Rick Keller and said he would contact the powers and see what they wanted to do . More people are going up Sunday to see for themselfs. It would have to drop alot to be able to lanch boats and place a clock to race just my opion for what it worth still like go test next weeek some where dennis

Thanks Dennis. I figured that If we had trouble it would be Newport. I guess on to Ione then. The weather this year has sucked

Heard a rumor that there will be some pro boats comming from Oregon!!

Who? I know all the pro drivers in Oregon and none are planning on coming...

[blueskyracer]

Rumor has it that the race is on. Can anyone confirm for sure?

[blueskyracer]

Newport is a go!! The water is dropping fast and from pictures and waterflow charts conditions should be good by race time

[form-e one]

If somebody needs it they will usually have a half an hour.

If for what ever reason we were to not race one thing SLORA knows how to do is PARTY and drink it up!
It's all good we well be racing I have faith!

[blueskyracer]

Its all good, We will be heading out about 4 "Montana" time Thursday. The club van and all the fuel tanks are topped off. Ouch!! The coffee pot is loaded for the ones that party to much. We won't have the ambulance to wake you all up this time.

The weather is perfect. What else could you ask for besides some close racing. The geriatric Y-80 class was a hoot with the senior citizens puttin on a racing clinic for the youngsters. I think 1st,2nd,and 3rd were within 5 feet at the finish.

Not wanting to be negative or the bearer of bad news but the weather has changed slightly, and the river is still high, and moving 5-6 miles per hour. Rumor has it, a stock boat on a dolly wont fit between the bank and the water line

OOPS, I guess that didn't work. Anyway it said rain on friday and sunday, cloudy Saturday and mid 70's for temp

[blueskyracer]

Mid 70's are good after the 90's we have been having. Mother nature is not going to be nice to us this year so I guess we have to just deal with it.
