Most of the boats have raced SBI this yr and know the rules, but I agree with your post and best its out there so everyone knows. The rule book is on the SBI web site also.

1 Sunprint
2 IMCO
3 Blk Phantom
4 Buccaneer Pawn
5 Absolutely Not
6 Octane
7 Watch Your Back

They have all been inspected in some matter, 4sure all the drive heights. Compression was done on Octane, Absolutely Not , and Watch Your Back.

The only thing i havent heard talked about is a hole to ck the fly wheel, but that doesnt mean they arent doing it.

Yes you r correct you can use a non stock ECM .

Drive height is 1/2 below the bottom of the BOAT not the notch if the boat has one.

Weight hasnt changed 4750 lbs.

Max cubic in.is 509

6.8.2. Engine maintenance and rebuilds – The respective motors can be maintained and rebuilt, utilizing stock OEM parts and specifications, with a maximum cubic inch limitation of 510 cu in and a maximum compression ratio of 9.0:1, all other engine specifications and tolerances must be as per the Original Engine Manufacturer or have approval from SBIP in writing.

Ya what he said Lol lol .........

The Finishing order in kEY WEST 2011 will be

1.SUNPRINT

2.Watch ya,lls back ! ( with no cheating )

3.IMCO

4.Absolutley Not

5.Blk Phantom .

As far as any others ,I believe the New York ,Joint race showed who will show up this far south. If 15 miles was too much ,I,m thinkin, 1500 will pose even a bigger problem ,I mean gas bein, what it is and all .

Either way SVL will be A race To Watch . Good Luck Guys ,You ,ve earned youre following .

Frank ,,don,t forget ,,by his own admission , Doc has 4 or 5 motors and after running 105 at loto (his last public run) ,we all know that wasn,t with a STOCK 525 , and again by his own admission ,he doesn,t know which engine is in the boat ,,and don,t forget recent history,, ,SO my point is,,
it might be sunny today,,,and not tomorrow,,all racers know the shell game,,,

Without Brian WYB won't be in the top 3, I don't believe. And hopefully he will not be allowed to run anywhere for at least a year......

With all due respect it doesn't matter what the rules state if no one has the authority to enforce them. If someone is caught cheating they need to be DQ 'd for the event not just a part of it.

Plus, I think a nice approach would be one motor for the event. Kind of like when Nascar doesn't let you change engines after qualifying.

Put an engine in it, Race it, complete the inspections before the final race. If there is a infraction you miss the final. No if, ands or buts!

I dont think you will see Randy this yr, maybe next yr .

Don't count randy out, he may have a new driver...

[Bilgerat]

THis guy gets waay to much credit, and that boat has as much a chance as any, with any decent crew in it.

[XtremeRacing]

That would be great Lance everyone is welcome, the more boats the better.

I just don't think it's a top three with 6 or 7 SVL's there without him. I do not believe I've ever seen the boat win a race when legit. But he is an extremely aggressive driver who hangs it on the edge, as was evident in Key West last year where Steve had him covered and he spun out three times with the faster engine in.

And I guess I was considering with Doc and one of his kids in the boat, and the boat teched legal, in place of Brian. I was not considering with Doc and another pro in place of Brian.

That would be great, he needs to be there. I'll call him and give him some crap.....

I'm not positive on this one. I still tend to believe that maximum RPM with a sealed data log system would do the trick without tearing the engines down.
