Mid Atlantic Boaters, lets break the FE barrier in IMPBA D12

[HOTWATER]

I would like to put in a 1515-1Y but in reality I will probably put in a Feigao 540-7XL or maybe 580-6L. I don't know for sure and am still up in the air about it.

I have the same champagne taste with a Budweiser budget. The 1515-1Y would be my choice for the Rico if I can afford it...I might have to sell my Aeromarine Sprint cat to make up for the build!

I think I will bring a couple boats with me to sell at the Sept. race...

I went to the race in Chesapeake today and had a great time and folks were very friendly and would answer any questions that I had. As this was the first race I have attended I learned a great deal. I even remembered to take some pictures!

[egneg]

Just a few more ...

[HOTWATER]

Great pics egneg!! I see you got one of John Finch working under the Virginia Craftsman canopy! I can't even imagine how much he knows about RC boats!!

Glad you went and got some pics for us!! The races are a fun place to be at!

Glad you had a good time Chuck. Thanks for the pictures. I would of been there this year but I'm still recovering from a 20 hour car ride from earlier in the week. Looks like the weather turned out nice also.

As fun as it is to watch the race. Participating is even more fun. From the time the trailers pull up and watching old friends that havent seen each other in years greet each other to strangers helping each other set up. Families racing together. Thats what it's all about.

since my last post was moved and edited by a power hungry mod,i will just say again what i wanted to say in first place...i talk to the impba district 12 director at least once a week and the topic always gets brought up by me did anybody from an electric club in va get in contact with you.the answer is the same week in and week out...no..why is that?the phone number was given,e-mail addy as well but nobody will call or write...why?you will sit on forums and say what a bunch of a-holes d-12 is but never make a honest effort to be-freind any of them..i dont even run boats anymore but i will still show up at races to say whats up to people i havent seen in a while..nobody wants us to run electric boats cause we are faster!join the impba aqnd find out..more to running fast boats than buying a hot motor and running up and down for 1 minute,or doing circles..people learn the rules of racing,learn to drive,than go to a damn race (3 of you)and know there not making it tough on you cause u have electrics its the damn rules..3 people make a heat..lets cut the b.s kiddie crap and join an orginization,get your stuff together and go out and have fun..if you think your faster prove it on the water,not on a keyboard....and was glad that egneg atleast took the inituative to see what an actual race day looked and felt like..

Moved, Yes.
Edited, NO.

This was my post in the FEMBOT thread just before I closed it. (I started the thread, I'll close it if I want to)

It looks like we're done here. Thanks everyone!
...shame, I wanted to name the group "Team Alpha Super Awesome Cool Dynamite Wolf Squadron"

This was YOUR post that was moved (not edited)

looks like were done here

It obviously was in direct response to my comment, you couldn't put it in the FEMBOT thread since it was closed. So I put it there for you. Explain how that designates "power hungry"?

...as for the rest of your comments, point taken. I know that Egneg intends to build a 31" El Lobo4 hull I gave him, and he intends to race it with them. I have been considering a Rico31 mono No point in running my hydro if Egneg builds a mono.

Now let me go paste this in the OTHER thread you started with the exact same comments.

[Diegoboy]

Oh, and you know better than anyone here that NO ONE would want to have their boat in the water with mine at the same time. Poor depth perception remember?

[Diegoboy]

Since I don't know what I said or did to trigger this, I'll open the FEMBOT thread again, Now hopefully I have undone whatever is upsetting you.

By the way, It's good to have you back posting again!

[HOTWATER]

WOW!!

[Chilli]

Well I don't know what to say. The Virginia Beach area has always been the top choice on where my wife and I want to retire, but now you guys have scared the crap out of me.

I started this venture in part to bring people together that have this sickness that we all share. And it looks like we are making progress. I have no idea whats been going on and frankly it's none of my business. I just hope the parties involved can all cool down over the next few days and remember what brought them together and also that none of us are perfect. I also hope that we have not lost any of the progress we have made over the past few weeks.

Now, For those that want to, Let's Shut Up and RACE!!!!!

[Chilli]

I realize that a few of the guys that are thinking about joining us next year are running smaller hydros. I appreciate the fact that you guys are considering taking the time and expense to build P-monos to race. A race weekend can have allot of down time. Especially if your running only one class. So if it looks like we will get the particpation we need for P-Mono, I'll build a vac-u-pickle over the winter to run with the hydros. All we need is three for a heat.

Just trying to sweenten the pot.
