Re: Super Cat Challenge
I had heard that CMS was going to race in ST.Clair.Thats a good offer but Bob and Mitch know where the boats are,so come to St.Clair and run against the best in Cat Lite.I dont think anybody in this class needs their entry fee paid for.

PS
If you want to beat the best you have to start with Page and the defending national champion Joey Gratton.

Re: Super Cat Challenge
thanks i gd, I found it.
I am sure this is a good will gesture but IMO Too little Too late, and to not include the other classes, certainly hurts any chance they have of making this work.

Re: Super Cat Challenge
What about the 2006 fees? and the 2 race minumum?? the following of the UIM rule??? For the sake of competition would CMS be willing to go over and race OSS Worlds?? The OSS teams would pay his way Im sure.

Re: Super Cat Challenge
Bob and Mitch.... Its great to see someone come foward and at least make the effert and put up that type of money to try to get racers together...
Pete...you used to race....if the SCL guys are interested they will make the call to Mitch or Bob...if you personally feel you need a answer pick up the phone....
Wil....come on bud....weather anyone takes them up on this offer at least its being made....Some of you guys really need to look at what your writing....the biggest complaint from some OSS racers was the fee's....now there willing to cover it and put up money....and you say "I dont think anybody in this class needs their entry fee paid for".
How about we let the racers in that class decide....please...

What race is the challenge for? My brother is the driver for Popeyes Chicken #13 and I think I can persuade him to take this challenge. Any more info you can give me would be great.

Gino,
Fair enough,just thought it would be easier for one team to join the majority than the other way around.Hopefully we,as fans,will see them all together at some point.Looking forward to see the new boat,congratulations.

Re: Super Cat Challenge
Manitie I couldnt agree more....
Bob is trying to help the growth of this sport for cryin out loud. Reggie did it with Super V last year, puttin up 20 G's . Thats why I respect the SBI/APBA group.
