Hey Racers,
The Michigan Cup is rapidly approaching and many of you still have not signed up.
This is the Premeir event in our annual FE racing circles and slow signups really
must make it difficult for Terry, Tom and the whole MMEU club to properly plan the event.

If you have never attended you must know that the approximately 10 acre pond site
nestled on a beautiful pristine lake which is home to the Leonard Elks Club.
Yes, there is food and refreshments available most of the venue as well as an evening
happy hour bar and some really good eats. The Elks club itself has a large open indoor
dining area as well as an approximately 40' x 40' outdoor deck that overlooks the pits,
drivers stand, and gives everyone full view of the racing while eating, drinking, or just
hanging out. This is always one of my favorite races of the year......especially this
year since Covid postponed the event for each of the last 2 years.

So let's talk it up and make this year's Michigan Cup as big as all of the previous
10 years +

Hi All,
The Michigan Cup was just a little over a month away and with the lack of signup (only 7 at the time of this writing) we are canceling the Cup! There are a lot of things that are involved in putting on a race, trophies need to be ordered, insurance and permits need to be in place, at the Elks we need to install the course and build the race stand (along with removing them after the race is done). There is just not enough time or people signed up to justify running the Michigan Cup. Sorry.
We are looking at possibly having a 2 day Shoot out at our club pond, running just P-Limited, P, Q, and Scales. I know that several of you are looking forward to running the larger size boats but the pond will just not allow for more than 2 boats bigger than Q to run together.

Hi Iam new to this forum just bought a SONICWAVE 36 V2. I live in Fenton Mi. on Lake Fenton run it on there some time, is there a club or a place RC boaters hang out in Mich.

There are two clubs that run on the pond at Ford Field Central Park in Shelby Township. Both clubs are dedicated to keeping it fun.

Mid Michigan Electric Unlimiteds is more FE racing focused. Great Lakes doesn't do any organized racing and they will running anything.

MMEU is there Wednesday evenings and Saturdays from 10 to 2:00. Great Lakes is there Tuesday evenings only.

Both clubs require membership to run on their days. MMEU's insurance requires membership with NAMBA in addition for insurance purposes.
