I think we should race at Salton as far as smell goes do we want no racing or a little aroma? I recall races at Fox Lake Illinois that were next to a municipal garbage dump. Many many races were held there in the 50s. And as you know, and heard for yourself Ron Lake Elsinore is dying to have us. Racing at the west end of the lake should be OK wind-wise and if I am wrong its no worse than Salton when it whips up. Anyway outboard regattas were held at Elsinore all the time in pre-war days. Drag boat races are there a couple times a year and there were PWC races there recently.
