    What's the next step after Noob?

    What's the next step after Noob? Is it Boob? There should be a stage of four titles or so that we all go threw in or learning experience in this hobby. I'm still new to this hobby but i would not classify myself as a noob or newbie. Although there is the occasional question I know nothing about; like tugs that may sound very newbish.

    This question itself maybe a newbie question?

    How do you know for sure when your out of the noob stage!

    Anyone got any ideas for some titles?

    Bored before work; just a thought!

    May you all hull a...

    I started to say that you are no longer a newbie when: you stop burning stuff up, but even Fluid still smokes stuff every now and then. No offense meant by that.

    So I would say in this hobby, where everything keeps changing and you need to keep learning, that everyone is still a noob.

        Thats a good point Reddy Watts! Sometimes i feel i'm on my game and then there is that topic that pops up that you know nothing about. So, i guess your right; we have our times when we know are s--- and then there times we revert back to being noob.

          I think you move up from newbie,(First few races) to where I am now, boobie. Boobie = several races and not any better at driving. To be a boobie you must cut a minimum of at least 2 buoys every three heats.

              Good answer Doozie! LOL! I'm glad you made it to class boobie and i hope you become a putz this year!

              If thats the case I have not raced alot so I would be in the transformation between noob and boob which would be newbie.

              1 2 3
              (1-Noob 1.1-Newbie) (2-Boob 2.1-Boobie 2.2 Major Boobie) (3-Putz 3.1-?????)

              Different stages within each class.

              LOL! This is what happens when your satelite tv is out! You come up with different stages of noobism.

              I'm begining to think that class four might not be able to be mentioned on this forum. lol!

              Any suggestions or new classes?

                  Jeepers have you one a few races? Because if so, that may classify you to be a Major Boobie! Head of boobs class and leader and informer to many newbies and boobies!
                  Your vast knowledge as a Major Boobie needs to be spread within your boobie class.

                  I'd like to see what the Major Boobie Class trophy would look like...

                      I guess you are a Major Boobie! Nice Job Jeepers!!! Do you ever let anyone else see the spotlight? Do you have any pics of your boats?

                      I have not ventured to much in racing; right now i'm working on rc fishing with reel and pole. Wish there were races in my area our more people into racing in my area.

                              do I let anyone else see the spotlight? i have been smoked many times, lots of times by Doozie, and the other members of RMTB. matter of fact the first half of our season didnt go to well for me. this half is a bit different. getting out in front is easy, staying there when you have several other boats trying to crawl up your propeller if you make a mistake, is the hard part!

                              here are some pics.
