Let's get Ready to RRRUUMMBBLLE !
May 19 AND 20 in sunny Fort Pierce Florida !
It has been called the Wave Blasters Invitational in the past few years.
We have decided that the invitational sounds a little "golfy" so we are looking for a more boat race type name ?
For those who don't know this is our annual race.
We wanted to get the dates out so everyone could plan for it and not be on
short notice.
Classes TBA
Name of race, open for suggestions ?
Sponsors? Always needed !
Good time, had by all !
I can tell you that our club BBQ will be on Saturday along with practice and maybe some class racing?
Hope to see ya there !

Hey Terry,
Just a thought....lol
Not sure what other ideas for the name we will get !
Thanks also for starting this race thread. :smile:
Anyway here is a class list from the 2010 wave Blasters Invitational Race.
Certainly we will be adding some classes and as discussed.
We will probably have to run a few on Saturday (late) afternoon.
I think we do all agree that the classes raced Saturday
will start and finish the same day no carry overs.
This way racers can show up as a one day race if they choose to.
Here is the previous list:
-Sv 27- Stock
-N2-Mono
-P-Spec Hydro
-P-Mono
-SV27-Modified
-P-Limited OPC
-LSH (Limited Sport Hydro)
-P / Q-Offshore (combined)
As you mention Crackerbox, 1/10th Scale, N2-Hydro, & LSO have been discussed as possible additions.
Let's see what the feedback tells us on the classes.
The LSO or spec Mono class had been proposed as a Saturday class in hopes that our regular SV 27 guys could run an additional class that aftrernoon. This could be an offshore or just an oval race. We could even run a 3 minute offshore to include the cats.....just some thoughts.
Thanks,

It's Official "Hotel Rate"
Sorry for the delay, but Ron Desmond was able to finally get some response from the Best Western in Port St Lucie about hotel rates for our race.
The rate will be $59 per night just like we had gotten for the Nat's last year.
Even if you have already reserved a room, just tell them (the Manager) that you are here for the Wave Blasters race. You will get that rate.
Since this is the only decent hotel near the pond that is the only place we have secured a race rate. Here is the address and phone number.
