Announcer Info

From Ray R. who does the USTS announcing:


I am going to be announcing at the Orange Cup again and would love to have any info from your group to help me get some PR for them again. If you would, give them my e-mail rayr@marvin.com, and I will be a happy camper.

Rob,

I had the same problem with scratch money too. Yeah its' only $35 dollars but its' not my fault it rained.

The year before ( 06 )they advertised tow money and then the promoter didn't want to pay me. I hounded him for 2 days and when he paid he was nasty about it too. To add insult, I cooked a motor on Saturday and I was waiting for the jet ski to tow me in. Th rescue guy comes zooming up and rams me and puts a nice hole in my boat.

Burkhardt

We’ll do what we can and hope for the best.

PS; I hope you are for real and not just blowing smoke up our……we need more boats, and if every Champ/Mod-U from region 5 shows up in Lakeland we could have 7-9 boats, and that’s a real race.

[washburn]

modu

Right now I am pretty sure the following will be there.

Rinker
Washburn
Reno
Jeff Shepherd
Brian B
Page
and some 120 step ups
There are also a couple of other guys that will be running Mod U this year but I am not sure if their boats will be ready to by this race

As far as laps go it will be up to the race director but I would figure on two 6 lap heats and one 10.
