    All right....I set new World Record for the Kessel Run (Clearwater to Morehead City NC) I did the 11 Hour Run in 13.5 Hours.....Holy Crap I need a new GPS...

    I-10 to Jacksonville went from three to one Lane......Lost an Hour there....Then Rain in SC slowed I-95 down to 10 MPH for an Hour...Plus the usual GPS Hijinks ...

    Don't forget, you have a T5, which has an ASP-C sensor. So, your 800MM (400MM with 2X), is actually a 1280MM lens.

    This first-class sensor features many of the same technologies used by professional Canon cameras to maximize each pixel's light-gathering efficiency and has center pixels that aid in the EOS Rebel T5i's accurate AF performance. This APS-C size sensor creates an effective 1.6x field of view (compared to 35mm format).

    Received this a little while ago.

    Hi Paul,

    Due to some last minute insurance changes, the Morehead City race is not sanctioned by the APBA. It is solely sanctioned by OPA. You can find more accurate information on their website: oparacing.org

    Best,

    Rebecca Nichols
    Director of Operations, APBA

    Yep. First race was a parade from what I heard. One or two boats in each GPS class.

    Trying to explain all that techno stuff is futile. His pics look the same as his old flip phone.
