Alan,
What NBRA class can we run our APBA "350" (B Mod) Yamato hydro and what is the weight for the Yamato? What are the other engines will we race against and the weights?

We'll also bring our 302 Mod hydro.

Bob Koschka

[johnml390]

Your B Mod will race in B Hydro. The class weights are Merc/ Mariner 25XS (420lbs), Merc 25SS, 200, OMC 22ci, Yamato 80 Mod (all at 385lbs), Hot Rod B, and Sidewinder 20 (both at 365lbs). Hope this helps. Your 302 Mod hydro will have 2 classes to run. C Mod. Hydro and Mod. 25 Hydro.

[Alan Owen]

Bob, Hope you can make it, We have not had the Bmod class in a while because there just has not been any show up at the NBRA races. It takes 3 for a legal race and 5 for a championship. The way this is in the rule book is that 5 legal boats must cross the line in either heat. If 3 cross the first heat and 5 cross the second it is a legal championship. Like John said the 302 Mod can run in two classes Mod 25 and C Mod, Cmod in the Yamato's has a restriction for 1 tooth off gear and expansion chamber. Mod 25 allows open exhaust and any gear ratio also.

Bob the motors are
Yamato 80 mod, omc 22 ci mod(like what Rick Miller runs) Merc 25 XS 385
Hot Rod B, Sidewinder 20W/any exhaust 365

Also the D mod is the 40 CI merc with pipes the Tohatsu stock and 44xs stock 440

E Hydro is only the 44ci merc modified 440

NBRA racing fun

We will be there with a D stock hydro, C MOD hydro, maybe an E and will have 2 merc 20 cu inch engines and a 22 cubic in mercs to run on a hydro. Wishing all a safe trip to the race site. Let the party begin and the outstanding folks that run in NBRA will again provide for outstanding freindship and great racing. See you all there from the Louisiana racing side of the house.

Is this the weekend of July 31st and August 1st?

Can someone give me a quick break down of the difference between APBA DSR and NBRA DR? What sort of turn outs do you expect for DR? What does it take to join NBRA?

thanks
Josh

The above website will help understand NBRA classes and rules. The cost to join NBRA is $80.00 for the year and $45.00 for a single event. The year is the best way to go. Race date is July 31st and August 1st with testing Thursday and Friday.

Josh the DSR is our D runabout. It will run with the Tohatsu (stock), 40 cu mod mercs and the 44XS (stock) with weight of 490. For the nationals you have to buy a full membership from NBRA. There will be at least 10 D Runabouts there. The cost is $80 as Alan said and $35 for novice. Testing is free.

NBRA rules; 22 omc formally called B-1 has a weight of 420lbs in the on line rule book, but my 2006 rule book has the weight at 365lb. We would need to add 50lbs to run that class. The omc has died under that weight restriction. It(omc 22) has not been in a NBRA race in 5 years.

[doc 35-0]

Im sorry, but miss read the rules, looking at the runabout weight, the wt. is 385 for the omc hydro...I's still early here in oklahoma...

Ricky,
Will you be at Centralia? Jason's bringing his 400MH (25MH) so that will be three.
