Oroville Divisionals

[Mrs blueskyracer]

Way to go Buddy!

We got "logged off" in Montana. No racing at all

Actually we raced on Sunday, water was clear! The rain showers came but by evening (after we were all done) became a huge thunderstorm that increased the river flow 28,000 cfs by Monday morning.

Race comittee did a good job running race...well organized etc. Good testing on friday made it worth the drive down. Sure was windy on Saturday...nothing the race comittee could do about that. Wish we could have raced DSH today..drove by the lake leaving Oroville and water looked fantastic! Also...I am going to change classes at the end of the year...look in stock mod and pro buy and sell for info on My D equipment.

What class you moving to?

Thanks

just wanna thank the Reg11 NCOA group for a GREAT weekend of racing...........EASILY made it through all the classes both days, even with a little "weather delay" on Saturday..............if you keep repeat the same weather and course conditions we had on Sunday for the Nationals, it would be GREAT!!! See ya in August..........

Class stuff

Not sure..very interested in CMH, also looking at 250 hydro, not sure if I want to go that fast...maybe interested in 1 litre mod inboard, but still looking around. Have had some good interest in my Tohatsu D stuff..depends on how much money I get for the stuff. I might also look at Formula Ford car racing. Still early...looking around. Daveracer.

I might also look at Formula Ford car racing.

FYI, they don't float well

[daveracerdsh]

Formula ford.

yah..I know they dont float. But the cool thing is....they have 15 entries per race....and you can race all over the country. Motor is a stock 2.3 pinto...and it is sealed...you can only have it worked on by a few people across the country..then it is sealed...and off you go. Just something I am looking at. I bet the people are not as fun as they are in boat racing though...

And I seriously doubt the Forumla Ford people will understand your passion for women's clothing...

In all honesty though, I can understand why you are looking into it. Brian Julien has been racing karts for years and he loves it. Says it is really nice to just drive a few miles to the track each weekend, race for a while, and be home early enough to catch the evening news.

Now that is a cool idea! This would be a step in the right direction for all of us, especially new drivers. It's hard for the newbies to compete against 40+ years engine building experience in some cases. There's some other kind of auto racing that I heard of that allows a debated winner's engine to be swapped for the debators engine at a relatively small fee. Talk about leveling the playing field. Drivers meetings must be a little ugly however.

what does this have to do with the Oroville Divisionals???????????

Getting back to the subject, on behalf of NCOA, EBBC and R-11 I would like to thank everyone who came to the divisionals last weekend. We had a total of approx. 170 entries, less then ideal conditions on Sat. afternoon, but everyone worked with us as we worked through it. Great racing all weekend and great friends that we may not have seen in a while, what more could you ask for?????
