Myself and Tom Baffer will be coming from the New York Metropolitan area, still trying to see if we can drag another guy or 2 along for the ride!!!!
We call ourselves the "Q"
Randy Rap came up with a new trophy for the furthest distance traveled called "The Little Beaver", I think one of you guys might win it this year!

Okay, where is Steven on the signups? He was talking about hitting this event with us.
Stancomb was hinting that he was thinking about it too.
No Einstein either. WTH

The "Can-Am Cup" has had a face lift since last year, could this be the year Team USA will break Team Canada's streak?
Can-Am Challenge Rules:
1. Ten racers will be randomly chosen to make up each team.
2. The highest scoring boat for each racer counts towards the team's point total.
3. Team with the highest total score wins.

"Won't be long now".
Our event is shaping up nicely. Could use one more P Limited Cat and P Sport Hydro to make the class...
Ray and doby, time to sign up!
Terry, we have another P sport for ya. I'll send you an email in a few hours.

Cool! Just one more P Lim Cat and we can run that too!
I could sponge one but I don't wanna. I'll check though.
I finished a P sport before I left for work this morning. haha

Since I typed that I was offered a loaner limited cat. I'll stew on it for the day. haha 8 classes for Ty and I to manage is already a lot. Not sure another is smart for us. Throw in Tom and that makes 13 boats coming out of our tent. That's a lot of bat trees. 52 to 65 heats between 3 guys depending on the round count. Then if we pit for anyone else........I already need a nap.
Looks like limited offshore made it to the bubble now with me bailing on it.

Just emailed Terry to drop my 1/8 scale and add P Mono. Might as well add P-limited Cat.
You guys rock! Just made two more classes, awsome!!!
you are right Larry, but I don't think I want to run 5 classes.
Yeah me too. I have boats for that but 5 with Ty running 4 is too many.

Anyone from Ohio attending this event? Looking for two 12 packs of 21st amendment Hell or High Watermelon. Not sold in Michigan but sold in Ohio?
Terry, go ahead and add me into P limited cat. I'll throe my old punisher back together. That boats seen better days but its relatively fast.
Noisy person
Can you run that bad boy in p limited off shore too.
I just looked again and limited cat was covered. Terry, if it gets another class on the water you can move me from cat to offshore. That's an easier boat for me to get ready.
