Status: offline 		BARKS, in Boise, Idaho is holding its 2nd annual SPAD race. Must be a DPS running a Sport .45-.55 engine under 14K RPM (no nelson, Jet or Rossi type racing). The course is standard 2 pylon, air start similar to club 40. There is a $5 entry fee, and there will be cash awards to top 3 places. BBQ burgers and dogs available for purchase. Must have a helmut, if you don't have one, let me know.

Come on out and join us for some serious SPAD fun.

That does look like a good time. We had SPAD pylon racing this past SPADFest. Only ran heats of 4, though.

It'd be a heck of a drive for you if you came this year. It's in Newton IA. People have come from farther - but they usually fly in and ship their planes.
