First race day second season CMBC Cape Town
Had our first race of our second season at Cape Model Boat Club and the turnout was great. Racing was tight and new rigger class was great to see.
We ran 8 classes running a m- shape course except the riggers ran a tri-oval.

Thanks for the complements.
The photographer is scary sometimes with the quality of his pics. We try and cater for all types of racing. Although a lot of people will say nitro is dying out there is still many guys with equipment still good enough to race with. And as such we decided to make provision for them. Gas class is the biggest with 3 classes running Stock v, stock cat and modified. We have at present 7 boats running in each class. The nitro classes have between 3 and 6 boats running.
I will post more pics as they arrive from the members.

The pink yellow and blue as well as the yellow and black one are avengers that has been cut down lower. The orange and red white yellow ones are Ascaris. The Ascari is a locally produced hull.
