"Nostalgia Comp Jet Class"

[Squirtin Thunder]

I have received word today from Ross Wallach Commodor of the SCSC, that for us, the Nostalgia Comp Jet Class, to start our season at Lake Ming/Bakersfield in March, I need commitments. Anyone wishing to field a boat in the Nostalgia Comp Jet Class on March 3rd - 4th, please step up now. I have posted the proposed basic rules and I will be submitting them to SCSC on Jan. 20th.
The Southern California Speedboat Club is offering a Nostalgia Comp Jet Class, but with few CJs, they have had to race against the v-drives. This is OK for bragging rights, but according to Ross Wallach (Commodore of SCSC), we Jet Boat Guys and Gals can have our own class if there are a minimum number of participants.
I am working on a Nostalgia Comp Jet Class for SCSC. My goal is to put the rules together that will accommodate most Jet Boat circle racing classes. This is the key to bringing the Comp Jet class back, unity. I want to instill on everyone that no matter what, the max speed rule of 80.9 will not be changed. This one rule is our major governing body to keep the little guy in the game. I am also inviting everyone to give there input. We do not have Official Rules at this time for Nostalgia Comp Jet. I would like to make a general group of rules across the country. This way if a guy in NC wants to run out at Lake Ming, CA, all he has to worry about is getting here on time.
Anyone that is interested, would like to get involved, or want more info in Jet Boat Circle racing, please let me know by email: jrpm@npgcable.com. We need a minimum of 5 boats to have a Comp Jet Class.
These are the proposed rules, as of now, that will be submitted for approval on January 20th, 2006 to SCSC for the 2006 Comp Jet Class;

"Lake Ming Testing Thursday March 2nd from 6am ~ 12pm"

[Moneypitt]

The Thursday morning Ming testing has nothing to do with SCSC or APBA. It is an every week deal, and has been for decades. However, it aint free. I think you'll pay around $40.00/50.00 for 4 hours, 8AM til noon, (could be only til 11AM), and there are NO safety boats. After the session is over, AND if you have registration #s you can still run on the lake, but the speed limit becomes what the other boats using the lake are running. This is somewhat of a "gray" area, and if you go out alone you can wind it up...Or if all the boats on the lake are hauling ass then thats the speed limit. I'm sure there is a link to Kern County lakes with info..ALSO, No alcoholic beverges, unless you drink inside a trailer or motorhome. I was told by the ranger you can get a drinking permit in town,($25.00) that allows up to 6 people in your party to have alcohol, but they must be pre registered on the permit. Ask circleboatkid how much his uncle Brad had to pay for his grandfather's beer!!!!!!!! Stout fine....I would suggest everyone do their homework before this race as far as this test session, and alcohol consumption, AND bring your own safety boat!!!!!!.............MP

Be careful here, the boat racing family tree doesn't have a lot of forks in it, kinda like the same great tree with different branches. The roots are joined, which adds strength to the overall tree. The leaves are barely hanging on, don't shake the branches too hard............MP

NJBA provides us with their rescue personel and boats, so without them our racing program would not exist!...among other things!
