Boat Racing / NJ Numbers
« on: March 21, 2008, 05:32:30 PM »
In an e-mail awhile back, Brad told me that there wasn't a formal assignment process for NJ numbers; he said you just basically use any CJXXX that's not already in use. What size do they need to be? Specific location? Required color?

Thanks again!

Boat Racing / Between Race Maintenance at the Track
« on: March 21, 2008, 04:58:18 PM »
Hi guys,

What do you guys do for maintenance between heats? How about overnight?
Oil and filter change? New plugs? Just keep an eye on things but no basic changes
over the weekend unless something specific comes up?

Thx,

Bill

Boat Racing / Driving Questions
« on: March 21, 2008, 04:47:27 PM »
Hi Guys,

I know rookie drivers start on the most outside lane. Do all drivers stay in the same lane all race, or if you get a length or two ahead can you move to a different lane?

Any driving tips or strategies (that you're willing to share?)


Thx,

Bill

Boat Racing / Fuel Availability
« on: March 21, 2008, 04:20:32 PM »
Hi guys,

I need to run 93. Is there generally fuel on site, or do you bring all your own?
Anybody know about Burley specifically?

Thx,

Bill

Boat Racing / Uniforms
« on: March 21, 2008, 03:22:03 PM »
The APBA rules say Drivers and crew must have uniforms. Surely this doesn't apply to NJ, does it?

Thx,

Bill

Boat Racing / Pit Crew Questions
« on: March 21, 2008, 03:20:16 PM »
How many crew members are you allowed to have in the pits? Do they all have to be APBA members too?

Thx,

Bill

Boat Racing / Helmet for NJ
« on: March 21, 2008, 03:15:44 PM »
Am I correct that helmets have to be florescent yellow, florescent orange, or international orange for a minimum of the top 50%?

Are you guys running the Bells from Lifeline? Open or closed? If open, do I need goggles or just glasses?

Sorry for all the questions. I read all the APBA stuff but it was pretty vauge about a lot of this.

Boat Racing / CJ / NJ
« on: February 29, 2008, 01:31:05 PM »
Hi Guys,

I thought Comp Jet was a defunct class. But, then I saw that Brad posted over
on PB that both CJ and NJ will be running at Burley. How do I decide which class
to run? Would somebody please explain the differences?

Thx!

Boat Racing / Physical/Eye Exam
« on: February 29, 2008, 01:22:18 PM »
Hi Guys,

It looks like the APBA rules require a DOT/FAA physical and eye exam for drivers.
Does that apply to NJ/NF too?

Thx,

Bill

« on: February 29, 2008, 01:06:19 PM »
Hi Guys,

Is there a particular type of kill switch required to meet specs for NJ/NF?

What are you guys using?

Thx!

« on: February 29, 2008, 12:48:09 PM »
Hi Guys,

Would someone please post a picture of a diverter stop? Any fabrication/installation tips?
How about tips for setting it accruately?

Thx!
