is there really a 28X for the workers? if so i can set up cameras on each pylon and the start line so i can watch the race and i can also do safety inspections. this way you only need one worker for the race...

Jeff,
No that beast is mine!!
I really need this for my pylon racers. My olf XG14 just wasnt enough.


The new YS115 is for my new Spit as well.

The workers will be very well taken care of.
I have 11 BNF planes, NIB JR xl jacket, 60 size Robart mech retracts, eflite 25-40 size e retracts, heat temp gun, JR DMSS red TX double case, Spektrum Tx (yet to arrive), some miscl parts like 3" foam wheels, Great Planes motor mount, bec switch, 7.4 volt reg, Over all the workers will be blessed.

The racers depending on their finish position are getting huge trophies out to 4th place, YS Engines, JR DMSS Tx, and cash (if I have any left from the race budget)

I was just saying in a short period of time all that stuff came in.... my wife got a little concerned.


If you won the speed dash and your class you would come away with an estimated cash value of items = $1000.

Who wouldnt want to have that and the bragging rights of, " Warbird Champion"

Yes, you can copy, save as, and print from RCU or the FB page, and send to me and I will then forward them weekly to JR as we get closer. I looked on the Fresno Radio Modelers site and they have some info up there, but not the reg form yet. I talked with Bryan and he is working on it.

if guys want to email me at mflood3800 @ a o l .com
I will send as an attachment if they cant figure it out any other way.
keep looking at the FB page and see if you can do it that way. I periodically add it there to keep it bumped near top.

I just got permission to use the Sams website as well so keep looking there for the info:
http://www.sacramento-rc-flyers.org/

Thank you to that club for being so supportive to pylon racing.

Heads up on registration:
There are 2 ways to register

1). Send form (printed from sams website) and check to
marty flood
box 1754
beaver, ut 84713

2). Electronic register at the Sams site
and then pre-pay by mailing check to me or pay on race day
-There will be a $10 late fee for this option and your spot is not garaunteed

I am cutting off the entries at 70.
If you elctronically register but dont pre pay, you may lose your spot.
Iam securing the first 70 entires who:
1, pre register
2. pre pay

Dave, Its on the first part of the flyer.
$50 for each entry of any class.
$10 late fee if not pre-registered before a cut off date that is like 2 weeks out from actual race date.

Thanks to JR and the Sams club for putting the flyer and registration (electronic) up on their site

Dont forget to ensure you place is secure as the fist 70 entries I need your money as well as your registration form.

Seems I have unexpected business in Istanbul, Turkey I must cover now



So far I have reg forms for DL and DS

I will try to do updates here to let you know who is in.
For your privacy I will use initials only and you may contact me if you are concerned if it is you or not.

I just ordered trophies (1st - 4th) wait til you see these. they are monsters.
If anyone needs me to order an extra trophy for them so they can show it to the wife in case you dont actually make the top 4, let me know. These are like $75 each.

that would be the safest way Dave. I dont want to create extra work for the people registering, just that It would be safest to send a copy of the reg form with the check

Racers... I have been receiving entries already which is pretty awesome. Please keep in mind your spot is NOT secure until you also send the $$ as well as the form(some have just sent in the form). Also others have sent in hand written forms. This will not work. I need you to go to the SAMS website and electronically fill out the forms. One form per entry. Do not put 2 entries on one form. Every class you race will require its own entry form please.
