    It would be a family sport where either my wife or my father would be racing with me depending on the schedules. I see alot of disscussions about SVL but not much about the other classes? Any input from the racers would be great!

    Thanks for all your help!

    It is a famliy sport for us. My wife races with me, and My new in laws go to every race, and help with the boat/sponsor. My 15 year old son, brother, my parents, and other famly members make it to several races a year.

    The next question how much do you want to travel? We travel an average of 12-14 hours to each race. Really not the bad, and get to see places that you might never go.

    Thanks for the info. Do you throttle or drive? Looking at the 2009 SBI schedule we would be able to make all the events in FL and the SE US. Driving 12 hours to an event doesn't seem like a big deal for us.

    My favorite was Biloxi start first race when we split between Pirate and Imco. I yelled at Jenni "get ready this could get real ugly real fast if they see us". 3 wide with maybe 18 inchs on each side. Charlie in the saftey helocoper said it was one balliest moves he had seen in along time. Probably not but I want to think so. Sarasota was great 2 or 3 laps side by side, semi rough, Cumberland both starts. LOTO in pro am was great.
