        Doug, is there open water Friday and did you ever get a best guess on run time for that psychotic offshore course?

          Hi Terry,

          There will be uncontrolled open water Thursday after 5pm., and controlled open water all day Friday.

          I haven't timed the offshore but discussed it with the club president. We are estimating around 5 minutes or so is what it's taking the gas boats. Figure low to mid 50s for speed in the straightaways.

                Hey Terry,

                Sondra and I have stayed here a couple of times. The place has been clean, safe, & quiet. http://www.reservation-desk.com/hote...5-3f9a7bf299e8

                Some folks stay in Peachtree City. It is a little farther from the pond but has more to offer restaurant wise. Let me find out where the "smartest hotel" is there for you. I would rather you have a choice than go on my recommendation. Don't want to hear it.

                  Peachtree City. This is probably the better of the two Terry.

                          Hi Doug, rcracingevents.com has been down the last few days and I would like to sign up for P Mono, LSH and Open offshore. I am part of MMEU and will be coming there with Terry. I look forward to going to Atlanta and racing.

                            Hi Thomas,
                            Really glad you guys are coming. I'm looking forward to meeting you guys.
                            I spoke with Bill Britton earlier in the week and he was confident that the site would be back up shortly. (They are replacing phone poles) If that doesn't happen for what ever reason we'll switch to plan B. The race will be held even if we (Lamar) has to print off heat sheets Fri.
                            One of us will post here when we know more.

                            Thank you sir!

                              Haha. Write it down with crayons.

                              Scrawl out a spot for me too. P limited hydro, p limited sport, p mono. If you need numbers I'll bring the tunnel and put it back together in the hotel.

                                I'll watch for the site to come back up and do it that way when possible.
