[Rex Hall]

Congratulations to Thomas Mantripp of England on setting the new World staightaway record in O-125 and O-175 hydro.
The new O-125 record is now 85.28 MPH and the O-175 record is now 89.02 MPH, both running a new GRM 125 motor. Well done.

Good job, what is difference between a F125 and the O125?

[Fast Freddie]

None. They are the old and new names for the same class.

[Rex Hall]

There is not any difference between the 2, the F-125 was formula, that had a series for the Championship, but the motor size, weight, and boat were all the same.

Hi Rex,

Change 'that had' to 'they have', 'was' to 'is' and 'were' to 'are' and you are right on. ;-)

And, the UIM names are changed to F-125 thru F-700, so there will be no confusion (no 'O' names).
