Yes Larry the good Canadians will be there, maybe Daniel will come too ..... if doby will let him, Chris you going to make it ?
Cheers, Jay.

[Doby]

Sorry, no Daniel....

Chris seems to have fallen off the earth after most of his boats were deemed illegal.

[jaike5]

Come on doby let Daniel out to play ....he is actually a really nice guy, and he's Canadian

[Todd Fleury]

Get your entries in soon guys!

Looks like a nice venue. Wish I could go and watch you guys do some serious racing but I'm tapped to attend the TRAMPS Fly-In in Traverse City. As president of my RC club there are certain duties I must attend to.
Wish I could be there though.

[revoltrunner]

I'll stop by and meet some of the guys and watch some heats.
going to Laconia bike week http://laconiamcweek.com/
then over to Boston for a few days to see my brother.
I'll stop and see you guys on the way back home.

haha Yeah, being in charge sucks sometimes doesn't it?

We know racing isn't for everyone......well......in fairness...............we think it actually is but not everyone can be convinced. Even if you're just an avid RC boat fan and back yard basher you should stop by nd check it out. Hang for a bit. Meet some peeps. Have a beverage. We call it "serious" racing but the beauty of this event for me is that those doing that "serious" racing don't really take themselves seriously at all. We're a bunch of children playing with our boats and acting a fool. Some of those boats are total crap. Some are works of art. We love both kinds.

Guys, if you're coming to actually race please get yourselves signed up as soon as possible. We need to know how many humans to anticipate. A number of us are going out to the lodge tonight for the fish fry. We'll be discussing this, that, and the other. Sometime soon we need to start acquiring bits and pieces to finalize. So git er' done please.

sorry to hear that Doug!

Guys Im still pondering the idea. were is the best place to stay?

[T.S.Davis]

The "best" place to stay is on site in a camper or a tent.

I know someone that has hotel'd it will chime in here Steve.

[Doby]

This is where I stayed 3 of the 4 years I've been to Michigan.

Free breakfast (when I was there) and a decent sports bar/grill right next to it.

Its probably the closest as well. (nothing is really close to the race location)...about a 25 minute drive.

[TRUCKPULL]

As John said this is the best place to stay- about 20 min. away.

Free breakfast, and the restaurant next door is the best-you also get a discount there when staying at the hotel.

** CLASS UPDATE**

Looks like we will have enough P & Q Cats to split them up and run them separately

The T-Sprint class will be split up and T-Mono will run on Day 1 (Friday) and T-Cat will run on Day 2 (Saturday).

Guys Im still pondering the idea. were is the best place to stay?

I have stayed at the Hampton Inn / Auburn Hills North
and also at the Hilton Auburn Hills Suites both were very nice places.
I actually shopped around on AIRBNB this trip and we found a place
5 - 10 minutes away from the pond site in Leonard.

Steve, you really should try to make this one !!!
