Frank, hi,,,I think if APBA was to write a rule book,and SBI nad OSS was to use it ,,their would 3 times as many boats in each class,,like i,v been saying ,,,IT WOULD FORCE YOU TO PICK A CLASS AND BUILD TO IT,,,simple that would be called UNIFICATION,,,so now that we know the answer,what do you think is going to happen,,,,,i,ll help your guess,,,NOTHING,,,

Maybe a good start would be to have an apba rule book, or approved classes. I don't see any org standing up for the rules like enforcing mininum boat count for a class on the fear of loosing boats.

Sorry Augie...I find that hard to believe too. You guys (Smitty especially) knew there was a meeting coming up. If you really wanted to go, Im sure you would have reached out to someone to get the specifics. Besides...what input could you possibly have? Smitty's been carrying the ball. you dont even come to the races and support the organization in which you supposedly have a vested interest in. Sorry for lashing out, but Im tired of all the BS excuses.

Smitty received a call a day prior to the meeting per our conversation yesterday and couldn't make the trip. Mark said he thought they called, Smitty said no call back on his phone and no e-mail. As for me I was back in the hospital that week but Mark now has all my info. Bruce, it's only BS if you look for something that ain't there. You have no idea how much I've supported OPA from a bed but then again it's none of your business what I do now is it? Your an angry little man and I pray you never have by-passes or get sick. God Bless you Bruce. George, Thank You for your well wishes always. Hope all is well with you and your family. Rich, that's the best I can do till Smitty and Louie get back from Florida. Had a great conversation with Mark from APBA, nice guy.

Bruce,
Just for your info. Augie was a big part of making the Harrison Twp race happen. Not only with much needed advice, but he also designed, aquired and paid for the trophies. That alone is more than most have done for this sport.

12-10-2009 12:43 PMEvery Org. new about the meeting and what it was about a month ago. Lets not use the I didnt get a invatation excusse. Some just plain didnt want to go. If a Org didnt know about this meeting then they must be so far out of the loop of unification of our sport. Its truley a shame. And do you know who gets the shaft again. You got it, us racer's and fans. Back to small classes 18 word champs and checkard flags for everyone at every race.

12-10-2009 03:26 PMDoes OSS have a schedule out yet??
Hopefully someone from OSS will take the time to look at the SBI schedule. I know Smitty and John have faxed schedules back and forth the last few weeks just so things like that dont happen. As of today John hasnt heard from anyone from OSS about schedules.
