I am at home right now but in an hour I will be heading back to Gulfport to watch today's finish of the GC, and I will try to track down the top 3 and ask them what they think. Remember, the number 1 and likely winner is a Viper dealer, number 2 races F18 and is on a borrowed Viper, number 3 is on a Viper as well and depending on today's finishes, number 4 or 5 is Greg Goodall.

The Viper is a great boat, no doubt, nobody has ever said it was not, including me, the debate here is WHY would you (Macca) want to raise the F16 Class minimum wt? And if it were raised, what happens to the Taipans who were the first F16's? Would you have them carry 20 Kilos?

And what if Matt can build a Falcon to say, 102kg, should we then LOWER the class min. wt? It's the same (stupid) argument.

Should the Builders set the rules or the CLASS MEMBERS?

Sounds like Macca wants Nacra rules all over again...
