    Looking forward to our records trial this coming weekend, that 's right it's Saturday and Sunday after Thanksgiving.

    We will be running under the Witching hour rules listed below. Sunset is at 4:45 pm so Witching hour starts about 3:45pm.


    Witching Hour Rules

    Witching Hour Rules will apply, 1 hour prior to sunset. A short list consisting only of drivers whose boats have been within 5 percent of the record during the event or if they currently hold that record will be allowed to run on the short list. Those on the short list will have the water until sunset. If no one on the short list elects to run at any time after witching hour begins open running will become effective using the daily list until such time that someone on the short list elects to run. At that time only people on the short list are eligible to run until such time that those participants are not running again. This can happen as often as the short list participants pass their turn. No one on the short list can give up their spot.

    Give all the racers my best Bill, wish I could be there.

    I'll be looking for a big pile of paperwork to wrap up the year!


    Good luck!
