Carl ,
Brian Tabara in MN has at least 1 boat for sale. I believe it is a pugh, and the Pugh's seem to handle the Opti fairly well. There are more drivers every year moving over to the Opti engine. I would not be suprised to see 12+ opti's on the water in 2013. If you are interested in having someone state side assist you in finding a rig(s). I would be morethan happy to assist, if you want just send me a PM with your contact information. There have been European teams in the past that have had all of thier equiptment shipped over in a container too.

Pete Nydahl has 2 Seebolds for sale on this site they are 17 footers the Opti would work well on them.
Thanks for the info guys. I have been doing a little research. Looks to me like the circuit in Trenton is quite compact. I would guess lap times would be low 30 seconds !!!!.
My question is do you need a Opti ? Is a good sst120 going to be faster on this circuit ? My thinking is sst120 boats and engines should be easier to find.
Let me know what you think.
Thanks
Carl
Carl your research is correct most of the races here try to run a 35 second lap. Yes a good 120 driver & boat has a chance on a 35 second course. Terry Rinker is our best 120 & was not beaten last year by the 200s. In the last 2 years these Opti guys are getting dialed in & getting faster each year. They are all good drivers. If you go to www. romesburgmedia.com & click on Huntington race this will give you a good look at the 120 vs 200 on a 34 second course. Im not sure want lap times were at Trenton last year others on here would know better then I.
