RE: P47 razorback vs bubbletop

I dont know what it is about the P47 razorback. It just looks like a big hulking retro machine of death. To me, the bubbletop not so much. I was a bit disapointed with the new Top Flite being a...

Grey tint in exhaust oil.

YS 63s
PowerMaster 20/20

I am noticing a grey substance in the oil thats left over after a run on my wing. Could this be a residue from inside the muffler or aluminum shavings?
