Rick is on the road right now with the Tybee 500 and he won't be landing up in Ohio until next week -- so he probably won't be responding to your suggestion until then.

However, I am curious why you think that topic needs a separate forum. We are ALL interested in knowing what goes on west of the Rockies, both cruising and racing.

Do you think more people would be interested in posting, for some reason, if there were a separate forum? Seems like we sailors are already separated enough, east and west, by the Continental Divide, so why divide us by forums, as well?
