There will be a Capsule Orientation class for all drivers of Capsule Boats on April 10, 2010 at Aquatic Dreams in Modesto, CA . There will be two classes for those who cannot make the early class, one at 10:00 AM and one at 1:00 PM. The address is 1212 Kansas Avenue and the phone number is 209-577-3483. The Orientation will be headed up by Gary Hendrix 209-572-1258(Home) or 209-605 0078 (Cell). Call either of these numbers to RSVP. Only call Aquatic Dreams for driving instructions. You will need to bring your first stage/hoses, helmet, and bottle. Also bring a towel. The water temperature is 80-85 degrees. This will be your only opportunity for a capsule orientation prior to the racing season. We will not be doing any orientation at the tracks this year, so lets have a large turnout for this one. UPDATED: Both NJBA and LODBRS WILL offer cpasule orientation classes at the races and it has been stated that SDBA will do so as well. However, we want to encourage drivers to take these classes outside of the races, where we feel that a more thorough class can be given, and there will be less worries about time restraints and getting equipment wet. 

It is imperative that those drivers that have gone thru the class but have made changes show up for this course. This course will save your life, do not assume that your equipment is proper, let the experts help you.

For those of you that might need to book a room, we have made special arrangements with a couple of hotels in the area on pricing: 1) Springhill Suites (209-526-2155) or 2) Modesto Comfort Inn (209-544-2000). Just mention Lucas Oil Drag Boat Series. We encourage you to sign up as early as possible to enable travel arrangements for adequate rescue personnel, in order to facilitate a seamless process and so that everybody can have an enjoyable experience.
