Thanks Augie.....

Now lets start planning for next year.

Wazzup Racing

Yea my friend, all we heard was you will never pull it off, or this has been tried before, what they did not realize, is that only made us want it more. There are so many people behind the OPA and the Jersey Boyz, it would be impossible to thank them all. This year was our first real attempt to bring racing back to the North East. This year alone we have 47 registered teams that competed through the season. And there are many more looking forward to next year. We announced our race schedule in the early spring, and held every event we said we would. And started every race within 5 minutes of the scheduled start. We are already planning new and exciting race sites for next year. The boyz are still looking to adopt a few new members, so getum ready next season is gonna rock. Special thanks to Bubba Jr. for your insite, and experience. Ed
