The event is starting to shape up. This could be a great gathering of vintage Outboard rigs and some very interesting vintage inboards. The current OPC/SLT races should also see some top notch drivers attend. Several National Champions, and World record holders will be competing.

Jeff aka Zonker has mentioned some of the Vintage OPC rigs he expects to see. This could be a very historical event and one that you will not want to miss. I am bringing my ear plugs just in case we get a couple of twin stackers. We already have permission for the stackers to run each day.

Let's hear who is coming. We have plenty of room but need to plan. If you have a vintage Race boat I hope that you plan to make it to this event. It could be the start of something big and a lot of fun

Will membership to APBA be a necessity to run a vintage boat? If so, what level of membership will be needed? I am planning on attending with my T2X Allison and plan to run it.
Thanks

Put a number on the boat so it looks like a race boat and bring it on. To answer your question. Yes you would need to be an APBA member to run the boat. We would love to have you join as year around member and participate at other venues. It is my understanding that a weekend or one event membership can be purchased. I will get the particulars today and let you know the cost etc.

You better keep a good eye on that boat. Jim Hunt may take it for a few laps if your not looking. LOL

I will probably go ahead and join as a non racing member. I will have my old racing number made up and afix to the boat. I ran the SV class (Supermodified V bottom) in 1974 and 1975. Jim and I had alot of fun with those boats!!!! Back then, the old magic mushroom aka Super Strangler just wouldn't quite git er done against Jim and the Just Rite Allison. He was the man to beat!!! Look forward to the event.:D

Membership for Vintage the following is my understanding.

Vintage Membership Fee is $70.00 (Annual) - makes no difference if Owner, Driver, Official, Crew --- all $70.00.

Single Event Fee for Vintage is $25 for the event.

I would strongly suggest that you go for the year. We hope that this will be the start of something big with more events to follow. The year membership also gets Propeller magazine and a voice in your Region. The more Vintage members we have the faster we can make this grow.
