Great contest guys..
The SPI guys always know how to run a great event. This was their first IMAC and it was run really well.
Less wind next year though...
Thanks to Roger, Bruce, Mike, Chris, Pops and the club members that helped out.
I forgot my camera so please post pics if you have them..

RE: Springfield, ILL IMAC-Lincoln Land Challenge
Roger, Thanks to you and the whole gang for putting on the contest. I think I'd have really enjoyed myself if I hadnt been so darned sick. Hope to come back next time feeling a bit better. Still enjoyed it and really liked flying Waynes new 260 too. Thanks again Wayne for letting me share it.
Anyone flying Unlimited at the Shootout, look out! Wayne obviously really hooks up with the new model. Its a show piece inside and out and flies as well as it looks.
My $$ is on Wayne at te Shootout this year!

RE: Springfield, ILL IMAC-Lincoln Land Challenge
Thanks for the compliment Mike.
Walt and I are thrilled that you liked the 260 as much as you did. Pretty cool that mine and yours fly so similiar.
I moved the batts up slightly and will try it out like that.
Someday, I hope to get a clean win on you.
(You at 100% with your own plane. But for now, I'll take it)

RE: Springfield, ILL IMAC-Lincoln Land Challenge
My thanks also to Bruce and Roger. This was my first IMAC event. I had a lot of fun and a great time. Everyone was very nice and very helpful. Special thanks to Lance, Larry and Tom for all their assistance. I acheived my goal of not finishing last in my class. Already looking into a bigger and better airplane for next season. I plan on attending as many events next season as possible. If you haven't tried IMAC yet, I highly recommend it. I probably won't be at Lansing this weekend, but I will be ready for next year. thanks again for a fun weekend.
