The Day SVL Died

[Mike A.]

The one missing part to this whole discussion is Smitty. Without his consent to any rule changes or adjustments, it's all just talk.

I believe Smitty has a damn good plan for this class for 2011 and I hope he'll pull the class aside in Orange Beach and share it with all of you. As for this upcoming race, any rule adjustments or additional weights will need to be run by Smitty.....and you know how he feels about rule changes during the season.....I doubt it will happen.

Well, given that, my guess is if Smitty wants a meeting he will have to do a conference call because there will not be more than 5 or 6 boats on site, maybe less.

Rumor has it that the SVL Fountain is not even coming to OB...
So whats the problem...
You don't even have to deal with him...
No entry fee's
$1000 to show..
Most of the SVL's have not raced sice St Clair...
Why would all the SVL's not come and race since the Fountain is not coming.

[Ron P]

I believe the Fountain will be in OB along with another new SVL.

Gino,
Will we see u in KW I know you have posted a few times but not sure if things have changed? Looks like it is shaping up to be an awesome race, P5 should be a hell of a race....

[MANITIE]

I left John a message to call me..I want to make sure they will let me run in KW with the Ilmor in Class 5...
Also I have been having a problem finding a GPS that is listed in there rules..
I'm running a garmin now...but its not the ones that are on the list..
If you have any info were I can get one..let me know..
I rather not do the ebay thing to find one...

[XtremeRacing]

Gino, I may have a Garmin 172C sitting in the shop. If so, you're welcome to it. I'll take a look tonight and let you know.

I'll be very interested in hearing what it is.

Kind of sounding like 4 to 5 at this point in time.

[MANITIE]

Rat....are coming to OB....

Will the Wazzup Fountain " svl " be ready for O.B. ?

At least that way doc will have some competition , ( assuming " both " will run 6000 rpm,s LOL )

[Dunbar 104]

The new class is going to like SBI had Super Vee Limited Unlimited.

Rules are simple Fountain, Blue intake anything else is legal, other than Doc will always win Smitty second, and third will be the biggest A$$ kisser. I think Wahoo has it covered.

I wonder if Smitty, and Ron kissing Docs A$$, and the rumers about Gieco have any connection?

[Wahoo 214]

And there you go. The Class Pres taking SVL even lower.

Kinda like the limbo. "How low can you go"?
