I spent some time with our official inspector for the October 20th Parker 300. We discussed the rules such as weights etc. Boats that are suspect, or light "lay ups" shall be weighed, so you may want to check the rules. Division I will be a concern and the inspectors will be checking carburetors etc. on these outboards, so once again, read the rules--The Merc 2.0's will be looked at closely. The rules read "pump gas only". We may require that you fuel from the on sight tanker which will have 92 octane fuel. I am currently dealing with this to ensure that you do not pay "race fuel" prices. My recommendation is that if you plan to run Div. I, you do not cut the heads to a point that you cannot run 92 octane fuel. Once again, I offer you the opportunity to weigh your boat in advance, call me (310) 488-3563, and we can set a date and time. All boats that have weight restrictions must supply their own lifting straps. Rod
