So since all of this talk of top end numbers I'm wondering if there's any true interest in a closed course Top Speed Challenge / Kilo event ? Interest from TORC / CBF as well as boat owners. Let's say from 9.9hp all the way up to an Unlimited class of OB Just a thought |

I don't see CBF or TORC having any part of that. INSURANCE I say we just hit the Bradford river and let TG radar the boats |

It's worth a try though. If they do then great. No need to put a negative slide on it right away. They may just want to as there are a lot of Kilo Records that APBA have that are very outdated. CBF falls under APBA ( I think .. ) so who knows |

Sorry, I am not trying to sound negative. I would love for something like that to happen. I just know from the meetings that TORC has a ton on their plate. It takes more time and volenteers to maintain what we have going on then are currently involved. All that and going fast into a radar is free |

Cool Idea...I am pretty sure all Kilo Runs are set per UIM which will govern APBA and CBF...if you recall back in 1996 Jaco Marine along will Allison and Merc|Mariner set up a special event to establish Bass Boat Kilos. If you had enough support ...this could also be a special event. |

a radar run would be cool... we can get real numbers instead of crazy claims of v21's going 103.. |

Kilo runs have been tried several times in the last 10 years... there does not seem to be enough interest to make it work out $$ wise. Doug Overbury has tried several times. I'd be down for 4-5 classes if the entry fee was reasonable. With Drag on board now, maybe that would change things. Doug is the man if people are interested. Insurance is not a problem. |
