Just want to say thanks to Randy and Terry both. They took it upon themselves to ask the FE community what they could offer that might be successful. As a result, we have 11 electric classes to choose from.

I know a number of us from MMEU had this on the the travel list and are already planning. The fellas from NY are planning on being there. They have a local FE presence too. Then if you own more than one fuel sourced boat they have that too. So if you've ever thought about traveling to a race, just do it. This group gets it like Atlanta does. Fun matters. Just pack yer crap up, get in the car, and get there. Come have fun with the rest of us idiots.

Thanks to Tom at Hobby Hobby in Mississauga we have our first raffle prize for the 2018 Can-Am. A Special Edition Green Traxxas Spartan DV!



http://gallery.intlwaters.com/albums/userpics/10068/normal_Traxxas.jpg

[Terry Keeley]

Park entrance fees have increased this year to C$15 per vehicle per day including one occupant and C$5 for each additional occupant.

They have offered us a discount through a token system, a straight C$15 per vehicle per day, no charge for extra occupants.

Tokens are C$15 each and are good for one vehicle per day, you will get them when you first arrive at the park.

To purchase please PayPal as a gift in Canadian funds (or EMT in Canada) your order to me at: tkee@rogers.com

Deadline is August 1st.

Of course if you are camping there are no additional park fees.

[T.S.Davis]

Ugh. I could say something about them being greedy but they do kinda let us take over one of their ponds. Is what it is.

[Terry Keeley]

Yup. All the "Conservation Authorities" around here (parks) have had to become self sufficient in the past few years I'm told.

Fifteen bucks for the day is still a pretty good deal for a family, especially if Mom and the kids don't want to hang around the boats all day. :unsure:

[ray schrauwen]

They are privatizing almos5 everything these days. It does keep out some of the riff raff though... I always managed to sneak in and for free a few times. That’s just because my friend one exit down lends me his yearly pass.

[Terry Keeley]

The restaurant is under new management, it's now called "Limani" and has a Greek flair. Food looks really good. We haven't talked about discount coupons yet but I'm sure they'll do something for us. :smile:

[Terry Keeley]

Good news. The new restaurant owners have given us $10 off coupons like before, hopefully we can get a group together for dinner on Saturday night! :smile:

[Randy Rapedius]

There is now another hotel option. A brand new SANDMAN Hotel just opened across the street from the Quality Inn on Centennial Parkway. Rooms start around $110 Cdn.

[Terry Keeley]

Over 100 boats and still eight weeks away, gonna be a great event this year! :buttrock:

[Randy Rapedius]

Over 100 boats and still eight weeks away, gonna be a great event this year! :buttrock:

Up to 120 now. I’m sure more of the FE guys will be registering after this weekends IMPBA FE Nationals.

[Randy Rapedius]

We are close to the 150 mark for registration. Classes are filling in nicely. Could use some more FE entries to round things out. Each class needs a minimum of 5 boats registered to race. If you haven’t signed up yet, please do ASAP as we have to order trophies soon. Thanks guys.

[ray schrauwen]

Trying.

Just spent nearly 3K on my car.

need to slap some boats together.

[Randy Rapedius]

Boat count is at 160. We need more FE entries. Remember it’s 5 boats to make a class. Trophies for 1st to 3rd.

[Terry Keeley]

We have some very generous sponsors donating to make our raffle a huge success. If you get a chance please keep these fine folks in mind: :biggrin:

[T.S.Davis]

Looking like 10th isn't going to make it with the guys we're going to be missing. Randy, please add me into P sport. If we can get one more of those we can run that too. I could probably sponge a Q cat but at some point there isn't enough of me to handle all the classes. Much over 10 for Ty and I and things get sketchy.

Guys, this is a good gig. Make the trip. You wont be sorry. Sure would like to see more FE....lings.

[Randy Rapedius]

[Terry Keeley]

Need another Spec Mono and Spec Cat, Howard had to bail...:sad:

[T.S.Davis]

Ughhhh.

Looks like the Q cats will run with or without me so take me out of Q and put me in spec cat.

I have a half dozen spec mono. Terry, you wanna run one?

[Terry Keeley]

Ughhhh.

Good deal.

Thanks for the offer but as my 'ol Uncle Bill (McGraw) used to say: "I'll be busier than a one legged man at a butt kicking contest".

Plus I'd prolly let the magic smoke out ... :huh:

[Terry Keeley]

Two weeks to go and 173 boats entered so far, shaping up to be a record turnout!

If you're sitting on the fence for this one come on in, the water's great! :buttrock:

[T.S.Davis]

Terry, when is yer cut off for entry?

I was going to drop Tyler into mono to make the class but that makes us 12 classes from one canopy. We can do it but it's less fun in truth. If spec mono doesn't make it doesn't make. No worries. Jut want to get my act together in time.

[Terry Keeley]

Cut off is 5pm Friday before the race.

Don't run yourself ragged, we want everyone to have fun! :smile:

[madmikepags]

I'll make sure the scale is all ready to run for Ty

[Ty Davis]

I'll make sure the scale is all ready to run for Ty

Thanks Mike. See ya Friday.

[ray schrauwen]

Sorry I can’t help fill classes. It’s been a rough year again, yada, yada...

Might drop by to watch.

[T.S.Davis]

I'll make sure the scale is all ready to run for Ty

Thanks Mike. If you have radio to run that on it would probably be good/better.

[madmikepags]

yea terry Ill make it RTR!!!!

[Randy Rapedius]

Really looking forward to seeing these FE 1/8th Scales race. [emoji106]

[madmikepags]

some very good boats in the field and they all look awesome, well except for my coors light, its been rode hard and put away wet!!!! LITERALLY

[madmikepags]

Hey Randy, how come you're not racing open cat???

[Randy Rapedius]

Hey Randy, how come you're not racing open cat???

Because I’m up in the CD tower most of the race. Lol.

[Doug Smock]

Yeah but she's still a runner!:wink:

[Terry Keeley]

Just got word the IMPBA has released a technical document concerning motors for FE 1/8th Scale.

As the Can-Am is an IMPBA sanctioned event we must adhere to the IMPBA Rule Book so this technical document must be followed at our race:

https://nebula.wsimg.com/f7b28fb053dfc3441af4634768aea1c8?AccessKeyId=ACA73 81D2BFC72351748&disposition=0&alloworigin=1

[T.S.Davis]

Nice job Mike. Keep up the good work.

[Todd Fleury]

So we are allowing those motors on the technical documentation?

[longballlumber]

So we are allowing those motors on the technical documentation?

Yes, that's why it was posted...

[T.S.Davis]

I don't know anybody that has them at the moment. Not at this event at least.

[jaike5]

Document seems to be missing at least a decades worth of data on proven motors plete, lehner, neu. Now I'm supposed to chuck Quality motors for the list stated.... don't think so.
News flash.... this is not an entry level class. Trying to save 150 -250 bucks on a 2k boat ?? Whaaaat ?

Easy there fella... Sentence #2 in the document reads :Peace_Sign:

"This is, of course, in addition to the currently approved motors that are listed in the IMBPA rulebook."

Later,
Ball

[Terry Keeley]

It's a list of motors added to the ones already approved:


"This is, of course, in addition to the currently approved motors that are listed in the IMBPA rulebook."

J-6 4e:

e. Only one brushed motor of any type or one brushless motor from the following types, Lehner
22xx series, Neu 15xx series and Plett 370. Any other brushless motor is subject to technical
approval.

Gonna miss you and Deb at the race this year, hope to see you in 2019! :thumbup1:

[jaike5]

Well Randy I didn't want to say the real reason you don't run your cat in open class, you know when you got beat by a Q-cat, and lost your chance for the Oneda cup.... Bahaha !!

Thanks Terry, I mite come down and test the thickness of your skin !!


Mike ( McFly ) sorry I jumeded the gun, I was back to the future and don't want an other *!***!***!***!**s storm like the spec class.

Cheers, Jay.

Hi Jay, Missed you at the Cup/ Nats.
Put that Plett of yours in a Scale and run her on 8s. We need some feedback on what that brings to the party!:wink:

[Terry Keeley]

Thanks Terry, I mite come down and test the thickness of your skin !!



Come on down, if even just for a visit, will be good to see you and Debra again.

When I told Chantale Deb wasn't coming to help sell tickets she was bummed...:sad:

[T.S.Davis]

Kevin and I were talking about that Plett Friday night. It will probably take a 472/3 on 8s.

[jaike5]

Ty , carefull what you wish for ….. I just might make it there to give a Nats champ a run for his money. Yes the target is on your back being the champion and all !!

Thx Doug, I do run the plet but on 10s 1p 5000 GP / 450/3 which moves the Mark&Pak nicely, but not crazy. I don't have a 372/3 for 8 S

[Terry Keeley]

Bob bailed from Q Cat so we need another one of those plus another Q Sport Hydro. :confused2:

[T.S.Davis]

Terry. We're not bringing our Q sports either.

[TRUCKPULL]

Terry
Were you not in Q Cat originally, We now need one more.

I was but I've got too many boats.

[longballlumber]

TK or Randy,

Can you drop me out of Open Hydro and put me in FE Spec Cat.

I noticed Jefferson is signed in FE Spec Cat so I want to make sure I am standing right next to him on the drivers stand! LOL

Sorry for the trouble,

Any chance you can run both classes? If we drop you from Open Hydro it will kill the class.

[longballlumber]

[madmikepags]

so looks like Q cat isn't making the cut?

[Terry Keeley]

Been trying to find someone to fill the class but it doesn't look good.

You guys wanna run in Open Cat? From what I've seen you would be very competitive there. :buttrock:

[Terry Keeley]

After the usual last minute shuffling we're sitting at 160 boats, a great turnout for this year's Can-Am.

If you are thinking about coming jump in, we guarantee a good time!

We can take your entry at rcracingevents.com or pond side up until 5pm on Friday...:biggrin:

[Terry Keeley]

Very proud of our Northern Lights MBC members, family and friends that worked tirelessly to run a first class event for our guests.

A special thank you to our scorekeepers Claire and Robin (who I forgot to mention at the trophy presentation). They worked non stop all weekend to keep track of the scores, create the heats for our shootout format, manage Can-Am & Oneida Cup scoring and post all the results as soon as each round was finished. We could not have run this format without them.

More to follow, I'm going to bed! :blink:

[TRUCKPULL]

Yes a big THANK YOU to Claire and Robin.:hug1::hug1:
Two HUGS one for each of them.


Larry

[longballlumber]

I would like to give a BIG THANKS to the Northern Lights MBC for all of your hard work. This includes Robin and Claire for their up to date score keeping and Roxy who did the work to provide us the opportunity for a great lunch. The club does an excellent job of running the race by making fair calls, they keep the day rolling, and this year provided a $10(CDN) lunch that was better than what most restaurants serve. The race site is nearly perfect for some incredible boat racing. It’s an excellent size, well protected from any kind of wind, and plenty of room for canopies. Most importantly are the people! This event attracts a really awesome group of people. Lots of smiles and laughs after another fun event! Thanks again NLMBC!

Thanks
Mike Ball

[Terry Keeley]

By all accounts the Can-Am for 2018 was a huge success, thanks mainly to all our guests that came from miles around to make our party one of the best there is. Again a huge thank you to all our club members, family and friends and who shared the work so everything ran smoothly.

Results are posted to rcRacingEvents: http://www.rcracingevents.com/cgi-bin/raceresults.pl?action=show_race&club=Northern%20Lights%20Model%20Boat%20Club&event=canam2018

Look for a race recap in the upcoming IMPBA "Roostertail"! :biggrin:

[T.S.Davis]

Nice work fellas. Thank you for being such gracious hosts......again.

There are a lot of little things this group just does. Scheduling of manpower. Rotating the heat calling duties. Pretty fair calls I thought.
Patience where needed without letting that patience become a burden to other racers. Pit bosses keeping track of who belongs in the heat thats up. Little things that add up to a smoother experience. As an organizor of sorts myself I notice some of those little things. Logistics so to speak. These guys and gals have it.

Put this one on yer to-do list folks.

[Terry Keeley]

The 2018 Can-Am is in the books, again thank you to all who attended making this our biggest event to date! Here's some photos I had to share, again look for a write up in the December IMPBA Roostertail. We are planning for Aug. 24, 25th next year, mark your calendars!

Sergio Perez came all the way from Miami, FL and therefore must kiss "The Little Beaver" for furthest traveled.

Sergio is also the owner of "Hurricane Riggers" and donated a certificate for a "CP Mods Catamaran" hull plus many

other goodies, thank you Sergio!
