If you don't have fun with us at these races, it's because you're trying NOT to!

I guess I should start getting a plane together.

At least it's a backup plane this time!

There may be hope for you yet TB.

Huh, another closet Butcher Bird fan.

Here's a couple shots for you to pin up on your wall of wishes.

P.S. I got a 1:30.50 something for ten laps in testing last Saturday.

I will see if I can make it. Since the move, things have been crazy and I have not flown in forever and a day. Plus Im not as close as I used to be, not that Grass Valley was close, but it was a heck of a lot closer.

Tommy,

Did you get the motor sorted out? Hopefully you can get it running as well as some of these guys mouths are. Seriously though, you said the other day that it went down on the power..... I sure hope you get it back up to speed, I hate having to lap you more than once in a race .

Test fly my newly repaired t-28. Check. Make sure my Spifire still runs. Check. Pack another can of whoop ***** to Serve ol'man Kimo. Check. It's already shaping up to be a good weekend and it's only Monday. I kid because I care, get well Kimo, beat that pig flu or whatever you have and come race. We missed you Sunday. -Teddy Bear

Less than 1 week to go, by next Monday the Trashman classic will all but be history...... T-Bear, you already got that t-34 repaired? I thought your less than perfect inverted landing would take longer to fix. Just remember what the wheels on that Spitfire are used for and you should have no problem rolling on by Kimo in the points.
