My boat is almost ready, I know of 2 boats at Collabella's shop that are going to be running Sbi but one suffered an engine issue and the other needed a drive rebuilt so they couldnt be in Lauderdale, Bruce will be in Sbi, I know of a pending SCL purchase that will run Sbi, the list goes on........ This has been a tough year to get everything ready and the merger put some people that were not planning to race into action. We all know how long it takes to get geared up and ready though!!!

No, Brett. I did not see JBS this weekend.
Sorry you didn't make it. Maybe in Marathon we should just take the Gladiator out to the "spot" roll you over once and let you start from there.

Actually Bruce, they were packed. In the prime viewing areas, and where they were not restricting access.
I don't think it was 1/4 of the crowd that was there at 1 or 2pm, but they were there. We were told on the radio(news, not SBI radio) that 1 million people over the 2 days. I think probably about 150k+/- saw the races. If they have this event next year I think we could run at 10am instead of 9am and still clear the course in time.
Just my thoughts and observations.
