    Atlanta Grand Prix

    Hey Fellas,

    The Atlanta Model Boaters cordially invite you to attend the 2011 Atlanta Grand Prix on July 16th & 17th, 2011. Atlanta is the third stop in the season long chase for the coveted Grand Prix jackets!

    The Grand Prix circuit offers a wide variety of classes and a relaxed atmosphere. We start racing at noon on Saturday and typically have everyone on their way home by late afternoon on Sunday. The competition and camaraderie are what keep the "regulars" coming back season after season. You will not find a friendlier group of racers anywhere.

    Please see the attached flyer for more information. We are utilizing the www.RCRacingEvents.com website to manage entries this year. If you have any questions just let us know.

    We hope to see you at the pond!

    Doug, Did I read there is going to be a Lady's T-Boat Shootout? I thought I saw it on the flyer posted on Jims but didnt see the class listed in the rcracingevents sign up. I think Mrs Loeb should be entered!!!

      Hi Mike,
      It's not a class for heat racing. The ladies will race a Thunderboat Shootout after the other classes have run. The winner will take home a traveling trophy and will bring it back to the next GP race where it will be up for graps again. Who knows, this may grow into something.
      They will register the ladies at the pond.
      I agree Mrs. Loeb needs to race.

                      Great!!! There are at least two local FE guys that haven't entered so it's shaping up to be a good one!!

                      Thanks for the support Mike!

                              I am going to enter this event, I have never run electric's in a race before. I raced nitro for over 20 years. But not since 2003. I have an JAEfe but with a Fiego motor, is that legal in the open hyrdo class?
