      Mike, some of our guys wont show up for the nats in their back yards. Travel to another country? not gonna happen

      Ray, if they have the schedule up look at where the FE classes land in the mix. Figure 7 to 10 minutes per heat. If there are more than 8 boats you get multiple flights etc.

      If they put all the FE classes together it gets a little tougher IMO.

        I had it easy in Michigan running only 2 boats a day. The one day I ran 3 in a day I started having to really be constantly ready. One thing Wendy does not want to do is play with battery charging and I can't blame her really, she only has so much pit girl in her and then thats it. She has seen lipos burn up and fire freaks her out... Of course that was only once in London 3 years ago...
        Ray: Buy more batteries=less charging on race day!

          We spread things out pretty good so no FE heats are back to back, you'll have time!

                    Less than a week to go and our Can-Am event is shaping up nicely with 127 boats entered so far, the NLMC is looking forward to hosting a great event for our guests.

                    If you're on the fence I encourage you to attend, we guarantee you'll have a great time! :)

                          Don't give up, it might come this week!

                          You won't have a problem getting into Canada (driver's licence is enough) and I bet if you enquire your birth certificate would be OK to return...

                                Everything is in place for a great weekend, weather should be nice, partly cloudy and mid 70's.

                                We will take entries right up until race day if you want in.

                                Safe drive, see ya'll on the weekend!
