Do u guys run any limited classes

We'll run any that make the 3 boat minimum. The 3 we have for OPC are limited motors.

I have a p mono and cat you can race if you want, I'm already entered in too many classes. We need one more to make p-offshore. Jim Stephens and Charles Hibberts from Houston have entered and q-sport hydro and t-offshore are in. Call me if you're interested.

Hey Ron, we had a great race! There were over 170 boats for the weekend. We started around 8:45 and finished about 6:30 on Saturday. LONG DAY! We had a light turn out for electrics but was still fun. Jim Stephens tore me up in t-offshore, but I won q-sport and tunnel. I let a friends 15 year old race an Insane mono I threw together and he won all 4 rounds with it! All in all a great time though. Jim and Charles are great guys. Jim I believe has some video, hopefully he'll get it posted soon.

There's a race in Crosby on May 16th to make up for the rained out one last month. Looks like a good turnout for it so far.

Here's a few videos Jim Stephens took with his pivothead glasses.

It was a truly great weekend, winds were 10mph or less and temps were upper 70's. Lake was also full.
