And if they don't, Mike will take care of it for you Friday night.

Define good Mike? I had 6 chances to do my second favorite thing to do with my spare time with a bunch of good people. First being knitting of course.

Sunday we had families, and wives, and spectators cheering. It was like a Cup race but just for a day. We were all home by dinner. This summer is going to be epic for MMEU.

Still waiting for more bozos to sign up for the cup.....still better than this years Nats...someone could be a Nats Champ just by by showing up!

[T.S.Davis]

Hey just a suggestion, if we just run the 1/8 scale on Fri and run scale the 1st heat of the day on fri, and then run it at the end of the heats the rest of the day we can get 4 rounds of scale in, in one day without really sacrificing any time, then we can put an "open Hydro" class in on sat??????!!!!!!!
I know I'm a friggin pain in the ass but if I weren't would u guys like me as much????

Sigh....having two separate organizations trying to do the same thing makes sense how:

I think about this from time to time. We all run what's available to us locally. IMPBA or NAMBA. The only time there's controversy is when some one says either is more better, faster, tolerant............."more progressive" was the one I always liked. The interesting thing is that you never heard that from anyone that was actually doing the work for those organizations. It was always someone who didn't like a particular rule that one or the other had or had not addressed.

This is what I've found......................we're ALL model boaters. The notion that either organization is light years ahead of the curve, smarter, extra more gooder is ridiculous IMO. We're just a bunch of crazy obsessive grown men with expendable cash to blow on toys. Racing our toys gives us an excuse to get together.

......where is that point I was heading towards?..............oh, yeah.....

So........when Tom and I were on our way back from Georgia I had an idea. What if we could convince Chris Harris to come be our guest CD? We pit all weekend right next to him. We each had different horror stories. Some of his stories included some of the same exact guys from my stories. I found that oddly amusing. Anyway. Best I could tell he's a straight shooter. Been racing longer than me. Plus it gives us a chance to reach across the gap between NAMBA and IMPBA and show that we're all just model boaters.

The more we talked about it the more we liked the idea. I had it all worked out in my head before we left Kentucky. Just had to sell the idea to Chris. For the record, I did not text his wife like I did to Doug. Sorry Doug. Well it wouldn't work my way but..........we did find a way.

I'm pleased to announce that our special guest Director of on water activity will be one Chris Harris.
