I live in Vermont right next door your welcome to come over my way anytime. I run on lake St. Catherine in Wells, just west of Rutland. No club or official affiliation, just a bunch of rednecks rippin up the water.

Check out the NAMBA web site and look at District 11 and the District 11 web page. Richard Grenier, our District Director lives in NH and will be glad to guide you to a club. I'm in Connecticut but we New Englanders all race together here in CT, North Rollinsford NH, Sanford Maine any any other site that is appropriate.

NAMBA District 11 race in Connecticut is June 6th. New Hampshire (North Rollinsford), June 27th. We run our District races on Saturdays so don't show up on Sunday thinking it's a weekend event. You'll be disappointed.

Can someone post up a link to these races in CT and NH? I am familar with the Southern Tier group but not aware of this club in NH or CT. Need more info on these races. Where they are being held, what time is registration, etc etc. I am located near Albany NY. I have a nitro tunnel and Deep vee boat.

Thanks

Kris

Kris, look at the NAMBA web site under Districts. Then go to District 11. In the District 11 section you'll see District 11 "Web Site". All that is known to date is in there. As I said before, all our races are on Saturdays. Registration is normally handled at the race site the morning of the race. The only problem with this format is we require 3 boats to make a class to race so if for instance you have a Cracker Box and only one other CB is registered there will be no Cracker Box class races. However the district has introduced an open class for Mono and hydro style hulls so that gives the example Cracker Box another option. Your tunnel would fit into the Open Hydro category since other than the 'A' classes, nitro power is very scarce. Try to get there and register before 9 AM. Flyers with driving directions and race particulars will usually show up on the web site when the race date is near. I will be your contact for the races in Connecticut and someplace in this forum I have provided driving directions to Mansfield Hollow State Park and our race site.
