Originally scheduled for earlier in the season, the event was postponed due to the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.<\/p>\n<p>Thursday\u2019s testing conditions were uncharacteristically smooth for Orange Beach, but the conditions deteriorated by the start of Friday\u2019s race. Although the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amsoil.com\/testimonials\/Teague\/index.aspx\">Team AMSOIL<\/a> skater was over-propped, Teague and Whittier found decent speed and led the race from start to finish to take the win. <\/p>\n<p>Saturday\u2019s testing session was conducted in extremely rough conditions, prompting Team AMSOIL to change to a lower outdrive gear ratio in anticipation of continued rough conditions during Sunday\u2019s race. When the rough conditions did not materialize, Team AMSOIL made as many adjustments as possible with the boat already in the water, including going up in prop pitch and adjusting the ballast weight bags. The adjustments worked well, and Team AMSOIL took a quick lead and continued to increase it en route to the victory. <\/p>\n<p>After winning both 60-mile heats of racing, Team AMSOIL was named the 2010 OPA Cat Lite World Champion.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amsoil.com\/storefront\/synthetic-powersports-boat-oil.aspx?zo=313120\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Buy Amsoil NOW!\" src=\"http:\/\/www.syntheticoilhq.com\/images\/BuyNow.gif\" width=\"80\" height=\"27\" \/><\/a> Buy <a href=\"http:\/\/www.syntheticoilhq.com\/\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amsoil.com\/storefront\/synthetic-powersports-boat-oil.aspx?zo=313120\" target=\"_blank\">amsoil Boating Products<\/a> online<\/a> NOW<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Team AMSOIL Takes OPA Cat Lite World Championship &#160; Buy amsoil Boating Products online NOW Team AMSOIL offshore racers Bob Teague and Paul Whittier recently competed at the AMSOIL\/Geico Thunder on the Gulf OPA World Championships in Orange Beach, Ala.
