McAlester Oklahoma Southern Championships

[Dave M]

Mr. Jack

Jack,

I will stick around. I know how hard it is to pull of a good race with fast turn judge changes. I think you need to be in charge. You handled Rockaway Beach with ease, and I know when you speak, people do listen. Whether you think so or not.

See you there.

Dave

Thanks Dave for the kind words even though they might not be completely true. McAlester is the only race for me this season where I'm not officiating so I hope to have a little relaxation time and smell the roses. I will be doing whatever it is that I do at Lucas and Centralia to be followed by Jacksboro. Mark and I plan to be at McAlester Thur afternoon. See you there my friend. Tell Dad to shape up! Jack

A consideration in the development of a schedule is that we need to keep people around the race site on the second day because they are necessary to fulfill the many duties required to pull off the program. I surely hope that those that finish racing on Sat don't cut and run. We need them to stick around. Please do so! Jack

the way to do that is to have everybody race both days...some of us will be sitting around all weekend and not hit the water til late sunday. others will be on the way home sat night. I would like to see all classes run 2 heats each day. run your first 2 flights, repeat, then sunday schedule, repeat. then same thing on sunday...I dunno...I am just the new guy. I have been told it is to hold down congestion in the launch area? I dont get it. we used to run 8 classes of inboards with eliminations in several classes and 150 boats with 2 stationary cranes to launch with...2 heats each day....

Don't worry Joe John... I'm getting a vibe.
