i heard this weekend that eatonville still canceled???? is it for records or???..... mmm the pics of my boat looks like i should kik out from 4.1deg under,,,,hehehehe

According to Bill Diamond and Jim Nilson things are a go. Not sure about it being a record course just yet.

Your boat was running flat as a pancake, but a good flat. It looked GREAT on the water and was fast, very fast. Good job Buddy!

No worries here man. I was just surprised Dan didn't seem disappointed as he expressed an interest in going to Lake Lawrence.

I think Dan should go to Lawrence. That new boat was smoking at Elk River the first time out. I think he would have something for the western boys!

Yes, Eatonville is a go for the weekend of August 28-29. Friday the 27th (no testing), we are putting new people in boats from 1-5pm. If you know of anyone interested have them contact Steve Greaves at sgreaves@portagebaysystems.com and he can give them specifics.

Hope you can make it out again this year.

If the second go round at Trout Creek does not get approved then we may just come out to Eatonville again. We had a great time last year. Probably just come to visit and meet more folks. To costly to drive two rigs with boats and travel trailer. I guess we will see what happens.

I don't think I could go back to working out of the back of a truck any more. We will see.

Not everyone is out for records. I thought for the first time on water it looked really good.

No record course at Eatonville this year, just a regular race

I think Dan should go to Lawrence. That new boat was smoking at Elk River the first time out. I think he would have something for the western boys!

I'd like to see him go as well, as he expressed interest. But this is where the snowball effect happens. If Dan was to go to Lawrence, SLORA would not have a D-Mod Class for Moses. So then would you also lose Ron Baker and the rest of their team to Lawrence? If so SLORA could lose 4-5 entry's and a couple other classes could suffer as well. It's just hard for a driver to decide which race to go to sometimes as both are good sites with great people. I just think SLORA needs to focus on getting as many boats on the beach as possible.

As it is, SLORA is also losing Daren which always brings a fleet of boats. And possibly Kyle, Dillion and Arron again

Anyway, I'm done

haa capton mike... flat is good... blow-overs suck ,,,heheheheh

Yes, I agree with you on that one. We want records, no more high flying acts.

But the big question is if Moses was moved a week sooner would the Seattle guys come? Would the SLORA guys go to Lawrence? Thoughts, feelings everyone. Also, it would put two SLORA races back to back. Chime in and give your thoughts. No sense moving it if we wouldn't gain since it would be two weekends in a row for SLORA (three if they go to Lawrence) and two weekends back to back for SOA guys. Would love to have the Seattle folks but will they commit? Obviously we have a few SLORA folk for sure that are going to Lawrence will they then do both. So much to consider.

Thanks for the FE pics Kevin. Looks like my boat is a Bulldozer, still plowin'. I got some good advice from some Veterans on setup. I'll have to play a bit once my motor is up again.

the week of Sept 18/19 SOA is racing at Moses Lake, so that would not work out.

Are you sure Daren, We looked last night at the SOA web site and corrected our calender cause it says Moses is the 11th and 12th of Sept. We were all ready to go till the date changed.
