    Personaly I thing the FE guys are the safest drivers. Kenny's accident was probably more then 6 years ago. There are crashes in the slower classes all the time, but the FE guys are very causious on what they do. As for a Capsule... 250 and 350 Pro doesnt use them

      This is an opinion based on zero facts! In 2008 I competed in thirteen 850H races. In those races I nor anyone else was involved in an incident. I can not say the same for any other class that I have raced since "J" sixteen years ago. Speed does not hurt people, incidents do. Why would adding weight help safety?
      I may be wrong, but the last time that I can recall somone being seriously injured was six years ago with Ken Resado. (his boat was very heavy and making it weigh more would not have helped)
      Nice try John. I am not touching that one ! There is a certain amount of respect that needs to be present to compete at a higher level in 850CCMH (FEH). It requires faster reaction times, it demands you be alert to your situation at all times. If you go into turn one at lets say 97MPH and are unsure of what your rig will do with someone on your outside or inside, you are in the wrong class. The engines are heavy by design, and thus not even close to comparrison in the Pro Division. Speeds are comprable, but handling is a lot different. When I ran the 350CCH (Pro) the handling was a lot better, lighter, lower engine. I could run well over 100MPH and felt completely comfortable while testing. As we all know, what you see testing in MPH is not even close to competition speed. Anyone can go fast in a straight line by themsleves testing. Just takes a set up.

      At any rate, this is way off subject. Sorry.

      Any agenda of proposals yet ? Or better yet, can someone email me or PM me Tom Sutherlands contact information so i can try and obtain it ?

        I don't have my Propeller magazine here but I think that information would be in the last issue.

                I would assume that MOD didnt have anyone there that uses this site to much.

                      I know that the MORC has had a policy that they do not post much or get involved with debates here on HR. They should be submitting the full minutes to APBA however and we all should be to read them soon.
