"These are 42% scale planes flying a 1600' pylon course for 6 laps of raw excitement!! " The most fun and intense 2-minute race you'll ever fly For anybody that's interested in buying a new Kelly F1D, GR-7 GT & Formulae 1 class racers and the Miss Ashley Unlimited class racer (Mustang variant with Lear jet wings and tail), Find Diego Lopez at the Team Extra tent.

well we made it thru the event, not with out some major $$$$ of carnage in three out of the four classes. Several planes were totaled, but all in all it was a great time by all. Dominator gold winner- Dean Cranston F1 GT gold winner- Robert Vess F1 GT silver winner - Joe Rafalowski F1 gold winner - Kenny Mc Spadden Unlimited gold winner - Fred French Conrats to all the winners and all the pilots for a great showing at Rantoul

Can you guys give me some direction as to where I can find a giant scale Kelly F1 airframe? Who may sell them new or a used one.. even if it a little abused , I dont mind doing some work to get it rolling. I would be really interested in getting into giant scale racing, we use the 40 size quickie 500 airframe right now..but bigger is better! Thanks for your time!

MFLOOD3800 -> RE: Giant Scale First Race Of The Year (5/8/2007 2:04:36 PM)
go here and look to left for kit manufacturers team extra out of calif are the makers of the kelly and gr7 http://www.usrainfo.org/ i may have a gr7 or even a kelly before too long for sale.

lonestareracing -> RE: Giant Scale First Race Of The Year (5/8/2007 5:27:29 PM)
Marty, Why are you selling????? do I need to know something. FYI I will have a RTF kelly soon also.

MFLOOD3800 -> RE: Giant Scale First Race Of The Year (5/8/2007 5:33:06 PM)
Bobby, I will wait and see how many planes are left after Ohio and then maybe get rid of one of them. I want to keep 2 for sure. I just dont need 3 F1 planes. I want to keep the new GR7 for sure. It all depends on how bad or good I come out of the first 2 races. Id like 2 GR7's. or maybe a GR and a Kelly. Depends on how heavy the repaired GR turns out. Im still in this just trying to eliminate excess planes is all.

wlwarrior -> RE: Giant Scale First Race Of The Year (5/8/2007 5:38:21 PM)
My name is Marty as well, is there two of us?? I would definately be interested in one of the planes, even if it is a bit heavy for what you guys want, it wont bother me to have a little extra weight at this point, as no one here has anything like those planes yet for me to compare too, I want to get into a giant scale speed plane.

MFLOOD3800 -> RE: Giant Scale First Race Of The Year (5/8/2007 5:42:22 PM)
sounds like bobby has a used Kelly as well, share some info Bobby, the other Marty might take whAT you have.

lonestareracing -> RE: Giant Scale First Race Of The Year (5/8/2007 7:40:19 PM)
I sent him a PM earlier....It is a RnR kelly that Jerry and I are doing a referb on. It is going to be light, and look good too....... Bobby
