    2018 Atlanta Spring National Open for Entries (April 21st & 22nd)

    The Atlanta Model Boaters are proud to host the 40th Annual Spring Nationals on April 21st and 22nd, 2018. AMB member Mike Whitley attended the inaugural event in 1978 (and has a trophy to prove it). 40 years is an extremely long time for a club and an event to survive. We would like to cordially invite all our boating friends and family to come and help us celebrate this important milestone! We will be serving anniversary cake to all in attendance to help celebrate the BIG 4-0! We are also working on a few other surprises to help commemorate the 40th Anniversary of the event.

    The number of available entries in each class will be adjusted based upon demand. We run this event on a "first come - first served" basis, so if you want your class to make... please enter NOW! As classes begin to fill in, we will open up additional slots until we hit the 168 heat cap. Once we reach the heat cap NO additional slots will be opened up. Classes without 3 boats entered by 3/13/18 will be scratched and those slots will be used to open up additional heats in the more popular classes.

    We are offering a nice mix of Nitro, Gas, & Electric classes (something for EVERYONE). We appreciate the continued support of our event and look forward to seeing you at the pond on April 21st & 22nd, 2018!

    Just signed up. Any additional classes being added? Maybe some bigger FE Classes? Open Rigger Maybe or Open Mono. Love to race the fuel guys in those open classes.

      Howard,

      Glad to hear you are going to make it! We will make adjustments as we go to make the most of the available 168 heats! I've had a few requests already to add Open Mono and Open Hydro! We will keep you guys and gals advised of any changes.

      Thanks,
      Lamar

            The 40th anniversary of the Atlanta Spring Nationals! Holy cow!

            Trying to figure what classes I want to race and how much I just want to visit (host).

            Looks like it's going to be a good one!

              The struggle is real ain't it Doug?

              Guys give me crap for letting Ty run all our best boats but it frees me up to be the tool that I am. He's a pretty good driver too.

              I know you guys will get more fossils but so far spec mono is the biggest class. How the heck can that be?

                  Not much still open. I just got the last slot in P Mono and one in P-Lim offshore. Have not raced outside local club yet, so I'll have some questions for the group later .

                    Hey Lamar, do you guys have someone handling class sponsorship? MMEU would like to help out. We do what we can when we can.

                      Yer gonna dig it. Some serious racing by some not so serious people. Fun will be had. Anyone caught not having fun may end up in the lake.

                            Pleasure speaking with you today... Keep your eyes on this thread. We may be opening up additional slots for the existing classes and adding more classes as we move forward. I'll post updates to this thread to keep everyone informed.

                            Thanks,

                              Hey Gang,

                              Additional slots have been opened up in a few classes that SOLD OUT early!

                              If you plan on racing in this event please do not procrastinate. Classes with no entries will be DROPPED to make room for additional heats of the more popular classes (and additional class offerings that have been requested by those who have already entered).

                              We appreciate all those who have supported this event over the years and we look forward to seeing you at the pond very soon!

                              Thanks,
                              Lamar
