I found some new ingenious "Legal Stuff" as Jim says. You put a balloon in the fuse section behind the servo tray. (one of those long skinny ones like the clowns make animals out of works great). You fill it with helium before the race and it makes your plane 4-6 ounces lighter. When the race is over, you deflate it or pop it with a pin and your plane will pass inspection. Be careful with that CG though!!!

Bob, I just so you know, I'm serious, I can shoot 1000 yards, and hit your stool. Now I'd never do that, I'd rather wait till your sitting on it and kick a leg out from under it,,, and run like hell!!
HAHAHA this is gonna be fun

Petrinec, French, Hopson, Oliver, Duda, Desardi, Fisher, all have flown 424 out at Freddie's Racing Ranch near Austin. All we need is someone to organize a race. We talked about a combo Club 40 / 424 race but so far it hasn't happened. Maybe in 2011...
Since 424 uses the SAME MOTOR as Club 40 it would seem to be a natural step up.

There is a couple of people I would like to thank for helping me make today's race. I would like to thank Mike "I am hittin' the bottle tonight" Walther for diagnosing my battery and switch issues. I am sure that there are a few people out there that wish you hadn't helped me....not to mention any names(Skully)
Also, I would like to thank Jim and Jason Duda for helping me with my plane and engine setup and for staying up unitl 1:00am last night to get it completed.
AND....a very special thanks to Skully for calling Jason Duda a double cut in the main when he wasn't even a cut judge(THANKS, SKULLY!!!!) Road kill is on me at the next race!!!
