Highly looking forward to it, Kimo . . . can't wait to see everyone again, and begin competing! Thanks for putting this on for us.

I will pre-register as soon as I see you next -- hopefully next weekend, or for the next Outlaws race the following week, we can both make it out. (I know first-hand how difficult it becomes when pilots wait until the last minute to "take care of their business.") Let me know if there is anything I can do to help you.

All right peeps! 2016 will be an awesome year of warbird racing! I can't wait to get on the mic and harass each and every one of you! And remember why we are here... to race and be competitive . I don't care if we have to time it with Calendars. A win is still a win! And since we bracket race the clock is the equalizer!.... We're clean and GREEN!

Getting ready, just replaced the fuel lines in the Macchi. Need to fire it up and put in a flight this coming weekend.

Anyone know what we can expect in the ways of the Redding or Bay Area crews?
I'm really looking forward to the Saturday practice and evening barbcue and associated festivities.

Oh, and, whipping some butt in the Gold class too!

Haven't heard anything from them. I would expect the usual few guys from each camp. Saturday is going to be busy for me, have a soaring contest in Davis and then have to jet over to SAMs for a flight and BBQ.

Registered for Silver, but thinking of playing around in Bronze too. Anybody know how many people have registered thus far and in which classes?

Thanks Kimo, I guess I will register in Bronze too to get in some stick time and give Eric some competition. Went out today and did a maiden on a Zero and made sure the Tony still flew. I have not flown since the Last Race! Just a few little fixes, and I should be ready to go.

It would be nice if the web page allowed us to register from a mobile device. Who is the computer nerd that can fix that?

Some things I couldnt down load on my Ipad were because of apple software. I bypassed this by installing fire fox. And it opened the door for some previously unopened opportunities.

Marty, in my case I think it is Safari as the culprit. I too have Firefox downloaded and will give that a try. I just like abusing Kimo.

Hey guys registration will be open Friday and sat at the field. If I see you either of those 2 days I'm gonna hunt you down. I will be giving you wrist bands at that time. Last year we registered 4 people on Sunday. It really helps to get things off on time..... Thanks again.....Except to Shawn.....He broke up with me!!! There will be a catering truck serving lunch. I will be providing free coffee and donuts Sunday morning for all.....except Shawn!!
