All right Jeff ..... what's idea of changing the October race dates ??? I was going to use the old dates of October 23rd and 24th as an excuse not to have to drive to Pheonix those days !!! Anyway, here's a picture of the old days when you drove the Lavey !!

It's not a matter of each class going there own way. It's what the promotors call "event style racing". They want to know how many boats from each class will be participating. No one's opposed to running with IHBA at all. But can the Pro Stocks at this point go to a promotor such as IHBA and say without a hitch that they can bring a lot of participation to each event and sell the promotor? John Hart has done his homework for the K's and the "SSRA" is already in place for the Super Stocks. This Western Pro Stock Racing Association is a great vehicle for the Pro Stocks to get behind and support. The "associations" allow for the owners to have one voice with the promotors. They are also a vehicle to assist in protecting a class. So, let's make a show of it at the SCSC Spring Regatta. Get behind the Western Pro Stock Racing Association and show your support. Look forward to having as many participants as possible!

So, is the WPRA racing at non-APBA, dare I say, "Outlaw" events?
