I take it you have to be an IMPBA member first Doug?

[Doug Smock]

Tom,
You can get a membership for just the event, but you have to be a member in good standing for records.

I may as well join for the year. It's only 50 bucks :wink:. Besides what if I wana come back down during the spring & summer :).

[Doug Smock]

It's getting closer guys, any interest out there?

Rules posted on RR in the SAWs forum.


1. Concours. Dress then up pretty ..... there will be prizes and lot of pics taken. Of course, since this boat is a scale version of a SuperVee, the concurs will focus on the scale appearance. The judges for this event will be announced soon. TIP: Cool stickers and lots of polish will go a long way.

For the speed trials .....

2. BOX STOCK. Just like the boat comes out of the box. For power ...any NiHm cells ONLY and you may upgrade your prop to metal as long as its a Grim Racer prop, only. Any adjustments are acceptable so long as they meet this general guideline.

3. Mod Class. must have Original boat hull and lid, SV motor, SV Strut and Rudder, any power - Lipo allowed. Plus any prop, any esc or radio. No restrictions on turn fin or tabs.

4. Open. Must have original Hull bottom and original lid. All else is legal. Be as creative as you can. Go Fast

Comments???? So far I have heard from approx 20 potential competitors and have seen several boats already decorated. I am impressed. I have heard from at least another dozen who have indicated they where ordering boats.

The prizes are impressive. On board donars / sponsors include; AquaCraft, FlightPower, Fullers Fast Electrics, Offshore Electrics, RumRunnerRacing.com, Hansen Racing Products, Castle Creations, RumRunnerHobbies .... and several others TBA.

As for Hop Up kits and help. Fuller's is offering hardware upgrades as is Offshore Electrics. Either Vendor can order you a complete boat or prepare your RTR Mod Hull for you too.
