Re: 2007 schedule is out
OK I see you took my post down, from Julie's post it said National schedule and I did not realize that the nation was mostly Florida. I would have no beef with your schedule if it was just SBI, but since this is the schedule for
the AMERICAN powerboat association, IMHO I think alot of other good waters were forgotten.
Of course this schedule is easy for you Frank you live in FL, but not all racers do, I know for a FACT this is one of the reasons some of the midwest racers dropped out of APBA. Would you want to, or have the time and money to travel to the great lakes each weekend to race.

Re: 2007 schedule is out
I am not sure about OSS's schedule and this is not about who's is out first. I am assuming if it was like last year they will be criss crossing the country like last year. All I am saying is if your group is not regional they should get out of FL a bit more, what about a great lakes race, from old races stories I've heard some of the hardest battles were fought on these waters.
If I missed something and your group is regional, then I apologize for my comments.

But you know what they say about opinions......................
Good luck and stay safe where ever you race, just dissapointed it will be no where near the great lakes

SBI/APBA has racers from the East Coast in Cali, Mid West, NE , and SE , seems to work for them. Most of them love to race in the FL races like Marathon, Sarasota. Pan Ciy, KW, Ft.Lauderdale, Miami. Some of the great Offshore sites are in Florida Waters. Sponsors also want to see you in major cities like these.
I will talk to JC, and see what he can do to try and get some other location , in the Mid West , and East Coast.
If you know of any please IM with the info. and we can contact them for futhure races.
Thanks

Lake St Clair by metro beach has been a good place in the past, as is the Detroit River, they have also had them in Grand Haven on Lake MI, Cleveland, on Lake Erie, St Clair MI on the St Clair river. I will ask my husband since he has followed racing a lot longer.
If SBI/APBA ever does race in the Great Lakes I promise to help rally a large group of support boats to help.
