2018 IMPBA FE Nationals - Michigan Cup

[Doby]

I would like to formally apologize to Don Huff....Don, I won't be able to pit/spot for you this year. Unfortunately you will have to put up with whoever else you can find and hope they measure up to the high standards I set a few years ago fo you

I made the mistake of going into work this morning (should have stayed home) and staffing issues have come up again so I have to drop out

Owning a business sucks sometimes.

Now I have to unpack the car

That sucks John but I certainly understand. Until I get out of town it could happen to me as well.... Going to miss you buddy!!

That's only because you have been building boats for the last week.

Have a great event guys, stay hydrated!

As usual we had a great time at this year’s MI Cup and Nationals, can’t thank Terry, Tom and all the MMEU crew enough for the hospitality and well run event. Sadly, our team didn’t get to stay for the last day, we hope you all have the best of luck in the sweltering conditions.

Meeting new people and putting faces to forum names was an absolute joy, like minded folks, great personalities, and respected racers that really put a smile on your face watching them run toy boats.

Mike got some pictures of the winners so far, I’ll share what I have, I’m sure there will be many more once people are off the water and re-hydrated. (can't get them right side up for some reason)

My son managed to take some video (aged 13) I will post them up, some are better than others and some contain inaccurate comments, some are bias to our team………. But figure you’ll get a flavor for the absolute speed and talent of the guys running. Everyone was giving it their all with some truly epic battles and wipe outs along the way. Sadly the videos do not do justice to the great racing and great after parties/jaw jacking.
