******UMPBA 2017 Race Dates*****
Been meaning to put these up for awhile but keep getting side tracked
Pelican Lake WI July 22ND
Stevens Point WI Aug. 19TH
Albert Lea MN Sept. Sept 23RD
All classes with the will be 1000'
With the exception of boats that were running 105+ will be 800'
No major rule changes but please please check driver and boat safety rules as we don't want to see anybody show up and not be able to run.
If there are any questions please feel free to contact me or Chet (Samari) or Scott (Scott in MN)
Looking forward to great season and it sounds like there will be quite a few new boats coming out this year.
Thanks Jerry

U.M.P.B.A. Drag races July 22nd
Our Pelican Lake race is right around the corner and apologize for not brining TTT sooner. I've busy busy busy and between family, work and getting race together I haven't even got A boat wet. Hoping to get it wet next week and see if my pooch still runs lol. There are some pretty heavy hitters coming that were fast last year and I'm kinda scared to see how fast they are this year. There has also been a lot of talk from some new guys/girls that want to take a shot a it.
The locals are very pumped up about this event and I'm hoping we can put a great day together for them as well as us. I have had unbelievable support from our local businesses and the volunteers from our local ATV club and Fire and EMS. Without all these volunteers it would tough to make this event happen.
Registration will start Friday Afternoon July 21st at Gerrits Lakeview Inn 656 County Rd G.
Race scheduled to start 11:00 AM Sat. 22nd.
Mandatory drivers meeting scheduled for 10:30 Am Sat. 22nd
Please try and have your boat inspected as soon as you register.
As in the past boats will be launched with compact tractors to avoid congestion of using personal vehicles.
I am also asking anybody planning on leaving boats in all day please launch early and we will put your trailer in overflow parking until your ready to come out.
Thanks, Jerry

Thanks Jerry! FYI for anyone looking to give this a try. I have had a blast at every one of these (even when I did not have a boat with or when I stall at the green flag and float as the other boat tares off down the track!). So if you wanted to give it a try, get a kill switch, make sure your battery is secure in the boat, and roll out to one and give it a try!

I do know of a place to rent for Sat night right across the road event area. It's a very nice and clean trailer house that sleeps 4-6. If interested let me know ASAP.
