15 pilots showed up to race 426 but one had tank problems and left. Day was 80 degrees with a 24 mph wind gusting to 35 out of the south. A few planes were lost or damaged because of the gusting winds but only one midair. We got in 6 rounds and had brats and Rolling Rock and smart talk after the race.
1st A.J. Hemken
2nd Pat Galarneault
3rd Ron Gage
4th Don Luce
R-200 plane took first 5 places.
Come join us for our next 426 race, June 9th at Grassfield RC Club.

Yep, that's like 4 years in a row I've had a mid-air at your race.. Luckily the plane flew like ***** so it wasn't a huge loss..
Maybe next year I'll cook the brats and guard the beer instead
