Mike A.'s plan is busted!
Jeff wrote in message ...
Brad, Offshore has a business plan for offshore. They do not have or at least never released a plan for the rest of APBA, nor should they. They should stick to Offshore which is what they were licensed to do. Now if they want to run the stocks at KW, fine. But that is where is should end. They should not become the sanctioning body of APBA. So I for one would love to see "the plan". As for APBA, you have been anti-APBA for quite a while. You run AOF. Hey no problem, APBA can't be everything for everybody. That's why other organizations exist. The Plan 2000 was under funded from day one. It also had some very large flaws. Some parts of the Plan 2000 were implemented. Some were not. I'm not going to get into a long discussion about Seatac, that has been done before. However due to the Seatac plan, and various lawsuits, the APBA is prevented from doing anything at this time. BTW APBA did not fire the first shot (lawsuit). I challenge you to provide any evidence that APBA (the BOD) has criticized any else's "solution". Solution to what? What exactly are we talking about here? Ed Hearn, Ron Hill, myself and the like do not count. Although APBA supporters we do not and can not talk for APBA. I wish you the best of luck in your endeavors in KW.

The rest was quoted from a previous poster. Just to clarify, I have been an APBA member for 20+ years (member#1298). I am a second generation racer. My father will be a 50 year member of APBA next year and still races....in fact he is beating me in points, right now. I am not "anti-APBA", you can criticise an organisation and not be against it. I have been critical of some things APBA has done and not done. I have been very consistent in my criticisms. I have advocated running APBA as a business. I was very much a supporter of plan 2000. I have not seen a revision to Plan 2000. I admire your loyalty to APBA, but please do not let it blind you to their shortcomings. Most of the racers I know do not care what flag they race under, they just want to race boats. I have only been an AOF member for about 8-10 years. I started racing AOF because our local clubs could not afford to put on APBA events. I have been appointed the Promotions Chairperson for AOF because that is where my skills are. I would gladly do the same job for APBA if there was such a job opportunity. Micheal Alweiss has posted The Plan at www.hydroracer.net , look in the Ed vs Mike section. Brad Walker |
