Hi Don, Sorry I did not read your post sooner or I would have responded sooner. When you use straight megaphone pipes, the engine is tuned to a specific rpm range. In the case of the Merc in the pic, that range is roughly 6000- 8500 rpm. I know, I designed and installed a system on my 1250 BP Stacke... |

We will allow some additional T boat drivers in both 750 & 850, to respond by Feb. 15th. If the count has not changed by then, then the dock start is final. |

OK it's almost a done deal. We will use a dock start at all OPBRA races from either a dock, or if not available as in Peterborough, from shallow water. |

The clock starts will remain for TORC. This is the start discussion for OPBRA drag events. They will not do clock starts, because they have no equipment. So back to your making a decision on what you prefer, of the choices outlined. I guess bowling it is. |

Let's have all the T Class drivers vote on the four options presented to us by Don. I opt for either dock start or rolling flag. Don, can you keep score??? |

Whatever is decided, let's decide very soon, so we can prepare our boats accordingly. Please Brent, you need to resolve this soon, so please put someone in a position to make the decision. THX. |

No, actually we will do like the Formula I boats did and run timed laps for each entry. Best time gets pole day one. Spectators love it. |

Awesome. Keep in mind the boat that earns pole position will be the pace boat and everyone will line up with that boat until the stationary barge flag drops. Day two will reverse order of day one pole positions. |
