Better than average?? Boy, that makes us sound pretty good [;)] The weather looks great for the weekend, should be fun.

Well it was a pretty good day in all... Dave Norman took the top spot with the rest of us somewhere behind that.. Lots of zeros for some reason, cutouts, no starts, ect... The weather was perfect.. It was however, a rough day on the Dago's.. Super Splatter lost his to some bad air, I lost mine to bad thumbs.. Mines repairable I think but it won't be as pretty as it once was.. Of course, my swift show of talent was caught on video and I'm sure it will end up posted here.. All in all, a good day of racing..

Tis' a mere flesh wound. I think I can get someone to bid on eray for it.

The piston sleeve, case, rear bearing, spinner, needle asm. as well as the venturi survived, the crank is bent and the front bearing got a good sanding.

I made the dreaded mistake of following too closely on the same flight level. Got vortexed big time around 3

excellent day for a race, I was more careful with bullet #2 for the rest of the day

You should be more carefull with Frasiers "used" equipment :)

Sorry bout the air, the Dago you got from Lee was really hauling! Where'd you get that wood prop?




Super Splatter -> RE: NCPL Q40 Race, 8/26 -- Amery, WI (8/28/2006 2:02:21 AM)

That was a 2003 vintage DS-3. looks just like the stuff we buy now. I wish I'd had a CNC machine to wittle props, too bad I broke it on it's first landing, it was hauling the mail.

So.... when are we going back??? I'd run one if we could squeeze one in before the snow flies




diggs_74 -> RE: NCPL Q40 Race, 8/26 -- Amery, WI (8/28/2006 4:45:22 AM)

With a couple weeks advanced warning I can probably get it ok'd..




daven -> RE: NCPL Q40 Race, 8/26 -- Amery, WI (8/28/2006 5:04:27 AM)

It was a nice cool day, the DS3 was a good choice. I'm down to a couple and can't replace them, damn I hope DS gets that machine going again...




Super Splatter -> RE: NCPL Q40 Race, 8/26 -- Amery, WI (8/28/2006 1:01:52 PM)

So, Mr. diggs, are you down to a pole cat now?

How about everyone else, should we try one more Q40 race there this year?




Super Splatter -> RE: NCPL Q40 Race, 8/26 -- Amery, WI (8/28/2006 2:21:53 PM)

Had a great summer , wish you were here




diggs_74 -> RE: NCPL Q40 Race, 8/26 -- Amery, WI (8/28/2006 3:07:30 PM)

Yep, that was a sweet move on my part... I should have just let it go and I would have been fine but I was trying for that nice low run to #1.. Oh well, the thing didn't fly that good anyway...

I have another Dago that just needs a little paint so I don't have to use my Polecat yet.. I did fly it yesterday though, man it flies nice..




kenthaas1 -> RE: NCPL Q40 Race, 8/26 -- Amery, WI (8/29/2006 2:43:38 AM)
