Hi Joe... I sent an email to them this morning about your question and got a note back that he's out of the office this week for the holiday. He said he will confirm upon his return next week.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

I wonder if this is the beginning of the end for the J Merc program....

Huh?
Why would this be the end of the Merc J program?

[Matt Dagostino]

This issue/question is not new. Maybe it should be on the J Committees' agenda at the National Meeting to resolve it in 2017 one way or another.

It is the end of the end - the new plan is put J kids in the CSR boats as a second rider - like the inflatable tunnel series...so the kids can learn mad-racing skillz while gaining more water-time in the fast-paced Playstation style that they're getting in other entertainment formats. Kids 9-12 and under 100 lbs will ride in the sidewells while larger children and racers 13-16 y/o will move to the jump seat over the motor....

Kim You need to take the car keys away from Brian , he's been spending too much time in the liquor cabinet this holiday season !

Nah... Just had to create a little something to contend with the Allen wit.. Lol

Has anyone gotten an answer to this?

Per Ron: They..."have six done, which were spoken for, but I’m having a little trouble getting a hold of some of the racers. Check back in another week; perhaps someone’s had a change of mind. We’re also about to start another production run of those units. Its always a guess as to how many more units will ever be desired."

Joe - if you're interested in purchasing now I'd suggest connecting with them via their website (http://www.racingoutboards.com/Contacts.aspx) or otherwise making them aware of your pending request...
