Thank you members of NAMBA District 1 for picking up a sponsorship!
Thank you Pat @ RC Lipos for helping with our raffle!
I am working real hard on making this trip. My goal has been to go to all the NAMBA Nats and I already have missed a couple. I have got to see Legg Lake and I have got to meet in person some of the guy's that will be there. Especially Darin. I will be bringing my little hatchet so I can bury it.
Got some important questions though - I do not want to come unprepared:
1. I take it, it will be 3 heat classes?
2. 3 bouy turns or 5?
3. Start clock starts when - 30 seconds, 60 seconds,??
4. 1/6 mile course correct?
5. How far out is the course from the shore? Distance from shore to lane one?
6. Drivers stand right? Is the stand in the center of the front straight?
7. What would be your best guess as to the height of the driver stand over the course?
8. What direction does the driver stand face? East West North or South? Sun glare?
9. What is the anticipated temperature of the water at Legg Lake during June?
10. Can anybody tell me the pH and Hardeness of the water at Legg Lake?
Now the really important questions:
1. How far is the Hotel Ramada from Legg Lake?
2. How far is the Liquor store?
3. How far is the nearest establishment where scenery can be viewed? And I don't mean geographical.
It won't be long and I will have myself talked into this. :)
Doug
I heard that the liquor store is right next to the gay bar. You can kill two bids with one stone :-)
Gosh-darnit Sean.
You promised me you would not tell!
Doug, a quick look at the driver's stand :

Don't have an answer to most of your questions, but in answer to question 9, water temps have gone down since they banned peeing in the lake.

Hi Doug
I haven't raced at Legg Lk in over 30 yrs . Its set up for gas . I believe 70 ft dia 5 bouy turns, measured 1/6th mile . Right out of the rule book offical course . You can race side by side around the turns if you can trust the guy next to you to stay in their lane .
Lots of 2 lap records set there .I'm going to the Dist 19 race March 17 - 18 just to get reaquainted . The front straight is not as close as I'd like , but plenty of room for 7 boat gas heats . I'ts always been one of the premier race courses in the country .
Dick Roberts
Doug,
Here's a good vid of what the course looks like; this was a P-Ltd Sport Hydro/Soccer match. Note; plenty of water all around the course

I had hoped to have a nice new shiny p-spec rigger to race. Just signed up for summer school after all today.
However, Dave, I'll contact you tomorrow about sponsoring a class. Count me in for 1.
Jay-Thanks for your support! Wish you could be there, though. Your teacher will be OK with it. I'll write a note for you.
Peterson, you could turn this into a business trip. I keep seeing that commercial about "great cheese comes from happy cows, and happy cows are in California!"
Maybe you could have a “cheese-off” inbetween heats
Later,
Ball
Ball - funny you should mention the business trip. Thats exactly what I am working on. I took on a new client that has a cheese manufacturing Plant in Tempe AZ. They want to send me out there. I am working on tieing the trip together. Gets alot of my travel expenses covered. Yes California has happy cows - they feed them that happy tobacco. But Wisconsin has happy cheese makers. Not going to tell you what we eat/smoke.
Dave - thanks for the info. However I am going to need the pH and Hardness readings as my boats are dialed in for 6.98 pH and 13.45 hardeness.

No worries!
Banquet has been finalized at the Ramada Saturday evening. Price is $35. And, please, attend this event! It is a "must do" as it wraps up an event like this with a nice little bow. It will cap off this event beautifully as we get to award our racers, have a nice meal, maybe a few drinks and we'll see how I do on the mic. My kids think I'm funny.
We are going to add an exhibition P-Ltd Cat class on Wednesday. 6 lap sprint.
If you are interested, let me know and I'll get you loggin in!
Me in Too (crap, I'm up to eight classes again ) Got batteries ?
