Trust me buddy, your getting all the good stuff. The design has been sorted out. Lets face it, how many airplanes would have been able to contain the engine after throwing a prop blade? I think the nose is stout enough. In this case better simply means a cleaner build. Well wait, I'm using the old wing to make some wing tip molds so I can do fiberglass wing tips. Of course you will be getting a set of those.

It dont matter what version I have, I will win matter what.
I know the plane is very well built as he spent many hours/days/weeks/months just designing it. I am looking forward to getting mine done and in the air. Then I can get my P39s ready. I got a lot of work to do to get ready for gold next year.

Had fun today. The race went well despite the huge wind we had to fly in. Thank you to EVERYONE that worked and to Dale and Amy for putting it on. If you have never flown is this race you should give it a try. A lot more to it than just going fast and turning left. I flew 7 heats and I am SMOKED!!! Ended up 3rd after a breakout in the final 5 race. Nice awards. Thank You Guys!

Congrats to all the racers who made the last heat. This race is a really fun format and Dale and Amy do a great job at running it. I just wish I would of made the cut to get to the finals - bummer. I and my boy had a great time. It was a good way to close out the year of racing.

A really great time racing with our buds and tough to keep the lap times long enough. Dale and Amy are the bomb and produce such great trophies. Very creative. Sorry to see the season end and we Bay Area boys wish you all the best and look forward to seeing you in the spring.
