    Welcome 41Live! I don't recall being asked to entertain

    Personally, I love a good shootout! But, the races are always so much fun too! As previously suggested is there an option to do both? Shootout on day 1 and races on days 2&3? That way you'll have a big turn out all three days.

    IMHO shootouts are more fun to watch......there is much less "Down Time" and more action. Don't get me wrong Drags are way cool and fun to watch but there is a lot of down time and with a shootout pretty much anyone can participate and have fun!!

    If it's a topspeed shootout I would say do both. This would bring big and small boats together that would increase the size of the event. Win Win

    Poll has been created. I made it a 30 day poll, but we can change that if you'd like. Good luck, would be interested to hear more publicly or privately.

    It always comes down to supply and demand, cost versus outcome. Ideally we are looking at Friday as set-up day with Sat & Sun event days ( June 6 - 8, 2014 Tentative).

    If the body of water is large enough for a TFH to safely shut down, get with Lucas and make this a series stop. CA needs a race next year

    I spoke with Ken @ LODBA and this would defiantly be a consideration in the near future. We would like to iron out the kinks and improve the infrastructure by getting a few events under our belt before bringing the big boys...Thank you for the reply
