As many of you know, the Bakersfield SCSC 2007 Season Finals are coming up on October 6th and 7th at Lake Ming. This will be the final race for the Nostalgia Jet Class of the 2007 points season. This race will have some new participants out there including Rick Ortega (lilrick) and Harold Bruce (R&D Marine).
The points race is very close! Jim Rich (Squirtin Thunder) is trailing behind Ralph Brunt (rwyyattb) by 10 points with Omar Archuleta (beerjet) following not too far behind in 3rd place.
Here are the current driver point standings for the class:
Ralph Brunt (rwyyattb - cj812): 645 Points
Jim Rich (Squirtin Thunder - cj72): 635 Points
Omar Archuleta (beerjet - cj22): 500 Points
David Carrasco (cj277): 340 Points
Nick Valore (cj410): 285 Points
Toby Clark (cj53): 170 Points
Terry Valore (cj410): 95 Points
As the newly appointed representative of the class, I invite everyone to come out and show some support. Even if it means just to come out and have a good time. Swing by, say hi, and watch some racing. This class is growing due to the large amount of comradery amongst the racers. Yes, there is points at stake, but everyone is here for one reason - a good time.

7. David Carrasco in his cj288 (http://www.socaljetboats.com/cpg/alb...3_07-1_132.jpg)
8. Harold Bruce (TBD)
There is still one or two racers I am still waiting to hear from.
Also, if anyone is interested in racing in this class, feel free to contact me, we are always looking for more racers to help bring jet boats back to the circle boat racing circuit.
We, as the class, hope to see this grow even bigger in the 2008 racing season starting at Parker in November!

Brad and all the Jet Boat circle racers Its very exciting to see this event gain momentum and popularity we wish you all Great success ! At the same time it was obvious that everyone seemed to work together and was having fun. It was very cool to see and hear the response and excitement from the spectators and drag racers. Just like Brock it gave me chills to see the boats come around all lined up for the start Its reminded me of the "Old days" at Ming when the "Ks" were a huge "half time" attraction ! We are committed to being there next race to help support however we can, and are anxiously looking forward to same
Tom, Rhonda & Josh

its about 10-15 min to the lake from the heart of bakersfield, there are several hotels in town. I stayed at the howard johnson out there a few weeks ago...$55 a night if you flash your AAA card and the rooms are decent.
Races will be going on all day both days.
Here is a google map of the lake:
