2017 NAMBA "Super Nat's" in Las Vegas Announcement

[D. Newland]

I just paid my entry. The schedule works well for me with the equipment I still have (and scraped back together). It will be the biggest NAMBA Nat's event ever and I look forward to supporting it and my District! Plus, Vegas in October is appealing.

The first 4 days of the event offers the following FE Classes: P-Ltd Mono, P-Ltd OPC, LSH, P-Ltd Cat, P Sport Hydro, P Mono, P-Cat and P-Ltd Hydro. That's not too bad for an all inclusive Nat's! More classes are offered after the 4 days (I'll list below) but I only plan on staying the first 4 days. What's crazy is that our DD will be there 13 days. Talk about dedication!

5th day: No FE Class
6th day: Q Mono
7th day: Q Sport Hydro
8th Day: 1/10th Scale Modern and Vintage. Scale Unlimited also runs, but I don't know if that includes FE 1/8th scales.

for someone who doesn't know all the different classes that entry form needs a lot of work. So other than 1/10th scale exactly what are the electric classes?

[D. Newland]

Folks the logistical side is there is no way to run every class in every fuel type.. it would take way over 2 weeks..the focus was in most popular classes from last 4 nationals in every fuel type.. this has never been attempted before..it is no light undertaking.. that being said.. bring out your boats and let's have some fun..

[rayzerdesigns]

I'm in for p limited cat.. mono.. sport hydro
P cat.. mono and sport
Q mono
G1 mono.. cat and rigger
Gx mono and cat
1/10th modern scale.. maybevintage

..the focus was in most popular classes from last 4 nationals in every fuel type..

This just occurred to me. If previous NATS participation is the basis for the classes offered then this class list will be THE list forever and ever amen. 2018,2019, etc will reference back to the year before for data. No other classes will have numbers from the previous nats to justify inclusion in a current nats...........because they didn't run at the nats the previous year. Typing in circles.

You guys that own T boats or 1/8 scale might as well sell em. If you're NAMBA nats usual suspect that is. Q, P cat, all of the offshore classes? Done. Those classes will not ever make the cut again. Well.....how could they? They won't be run at a nats so they can get the numbers to get run at a nats so they can get numbers...............to get run at the nats...........owe....my head hurts.

Ohh terry.. that's not it.. yes that's how it had to be done this year.. a lot of nitro and gas classes aren't going to be run either.. whoever runs nats next year especially if it's a stand aline fe nats can run all the classes..don't stir the pot glue sniffer.. lol..nonoffshore at vegas due to size and time constraints.. by the way I like ur idea at Michigan cup to do 8 laps.. and also in 2016 fe nats.. there were no q cats or t cats or monos.. like you said hard to travel.. we tried to come up again with classes that would fuel 2 full heats..i for one would love to see a stand alone fe nats next yesr.. we shall see..

[T.S.Davis]

Just bust'n yer chops Ray. Honestly, I'm picturing a bunch of dudes hung over trying to race. Sucks to be a fuel burner those days.

Does make ya wonder what's next though.

[rayzerdesigns]

Lol.its gonna be interesting for sure

Hey guys and gals wanted to post a few things about the fe side of super nats.. we are going to be doing tech since this is a nationals.. Brian Buass started this last year at the2016 fe nats and it worked great.. how it is going to work is there will be an area off of the hot pits with 2 or 3 tables.. you will be required to have your boats and batteries there in the heat before you are up to race.. battery voltage will be teaches as will be looking at the spec motor classes.. then you tape up on that table and ready for your heat.. this worked extremely well at last years nats.. and kept everything on time.. the second thing is class sponsorships.. it is $150 for a class sponsorship.. I will post a list of what classes are still available in next day or two.. looking fwd to see everyone

Ray, front side tech? Not to go all "Darin" on ya but where is that in the book?

You see... sometimes we here in NAMBA DO do things right, official, and pretty clearly.
