[flightracingteam]

For any of you guys that are looking for accomadation for the basic/ Hotboats national championship on 12-13 May. We have a list of accomadation avalible for you to book at very reasonable rates.


Regards


Denise

I take it that as you're not sharing them publically, they're another 'Hotboats secret'!

[flightracingteam]

Mr Fuller


Just when i thought you had calmed down and while not being positive at least you weren't being negitive, ahh wrong again!!!!


The accomadation is not a secret it is just that i had no wish to put phone numbers and address's all over Boatmad, at least One of us is thinking straight and organinsing accomadation for crews if they need it.

I hope that answers your question and i am sure you can see the logic of not putting phone numbers all over a public website. Please do let me know if you can not see this logic.

Regards


Denise

See you there

Your double ensuite is booked and as for Robbie he can have a proper bed as well as it beats the transit van he normally rolls into.

I have made sure that you can all find your way back after the race party, and you even get breakfast what more more can you ask for.

I will email you the details later this week

Love Denise

What an odd statement! Surely you don't think 'I' should be sourcing accomodation for entrants to 'your' event?

A simple list of hotel / B&B names, in the town concerned would have sufficed, and been no problem on the net. anyone wanting contact them would find it very easy to obtain a number with that info.

You people at Flight racing need to drop the high & mighty attitude. I doesn't suit you!

[CB1]

Agree totaly Jon. But it could get worse if news on the grapevine regards offshore committees become reality.

[flightracingteam]

Mr Fuller


Not for One Minute did i expect you to attend Burryport, however just so that you know that i do not have a high and mighty attitude i leave that to other people.

It may come as a shock to you sir but all we at Flight Racing and the Hotboat Racing Association are trying to do is organise a Powerboat Racing event and getting a great deal of stick for trying to do our best.

Why do we bother well it really is simple we like Powerboat Racing, we want to see the sport grow and try to give something back for the years of fun we have had and the genuine nice people we have met.

So please be as negitive as you like it matters none because if we have 5 boats or 20 boats we will give something back to Powerboat Racing and this series will go ahead.

Organising races is not fun it is hard work for everyone that undertakes to do it with no certainty that you will get any boats but Hey Ho thats life!

Actually, I'm not negative about the class, other than my opinions on it's structure, which I voiced right at the outset, but was given a gobfull of shite from Gary about how little I understood, and how 'it could work, but only with his commitment, hard work, and money'.... a statement I was uncomfortable with and which for me personally, was a turning point!

As a powerboating fan, I genuinly hope the class does well, but I just as genuinly don't understand all the secrecy.

Speaking as a curious bystander, it seems to me that you go out of your way to make it difficult for yourselves.

You've clearly put a load of time, effort an money into this so why set out to alienate people?

I think pretty much everybody wants to see it be a success. Perhaps it’s the way things are perceived. So lets rewind a little.
Hotboats pops up on this forum and broadcasts it’s intentions, nothing wrong it that most sensible IMHO, lots of questions & queries. Now as things move along and time passes the PUBLIC exchange of information has reduced to a trickle on one point. Who & how many running. I can understand some may wish to remain anonymous as to there racing plans but surely you could count them as a +1 even if not named and make available a “ballpark” number. It might just get those holding off to make a commitment and jump onboard.
Hotboats have been most receptive to suggestions & ideas and quite open on oh so many points, so it’s the perception when no direct answer is forthcoming and off goes rumor control, the longer it goes on the worse it gets. !!!!!!!!!

The Hotboats Series was created for larger and more powerful boats that had nowhere to race in the UK.

You now have a fully recognised RYA national championship . On the request of many people nationally who wanted to go racing , we have spent a lot of time negotiating for this to happen .

It is now up to you the competitor , to support this new series.

If you want to race this season can you retern your entry forms by the 1 st April 2007 without entries ther is no Series.

To date we have 5 boats. in the hotboats class We need more.

We have a Basic race at Burryport 12 / 13 may this is for all boats.And for teams who are unsure whether to take the plunge into the National series to dip their toes in the water it is an excellent opportunity for you to race against the opposition at minimal cost. And if you win you get your money back. So i have now done all i can do. So it is now up to you guys to come out to race or not as the case my be.

So to end this i will tell you we have 5 boats to date and a lot of guys who are siting on the fenc so i do not no how maney boats we will have in the end that is a fact i wish i did.

[Jon Fuller]

Thank you.

At last, a clear and concise statement......thanks

Tell ya what 5 aint a bad number at this point in the game. As you quite rightly say it's for the larger boats and these can be difficult to coax out. Hope it all goes well and a few more join the fold.
