I don't think this statement is completely accurate. If you polled the rest of the teams they would have voted the cheating team out of the Friday and Sunday races. SBI maintained: the cheating team wouldn't/couldn't win the championship under any circumstance; that SBI still held cards they could/would play if necessary; and that the response given to SBI by the cheating team when they were informed of their violation(s) didn't go unnoticed.

Well i know all of the teams very well in the SV class and the top boats where there and ready. For you to say they were not prepared and ready to do battle is an insult to them all. By your statement it sounds like you are the only one that believes that, and I probably guessing that's why you don't have a boat in the class. The guys in that class are some of the most talented racers you will ever see with the best-prepared equipment that money can buy so don't ever think for a second there wasn't a boat that couldn't win. If you look at Friday's results the top four boats finished 15 to 20 Seconehds Apart. I don't know where you going to see closer racing than that, any one of those both had a shot just like Sunday.

Yes Mike took a little time but SBI had a vision for the future, and solid rule book and awesome tech crew is playing off for sure. The platform is there for the racers now it's up to the race teams to grow it as big as they want the ground work is done.

Yes very proud of how far SBI has come over the past couple of years. They have been very proactive instead of reactive in realizing that a motor was being discontinued and providing a tech platform period taking seals out of the equation. They put the future and growth of the class as the priority... Kudos and look forward to it getting only better and better
