I too would like to extend a big thank you to all the workers and sponsors. Primarily I would like to thank JR Schiager (Trashman) for his leadership and dedication.

For our generous sponsors as well a huge thanks goes out to the primary 3 sponsors:

YS Engines - for donating 3 motors and 3 1/2 off certificates to pilots who finished in 1st and 3rd place in each division

JR Americas - for sponsoring the 2nd place pilot in each class..... I spoke with each pilot that won a radio and they were extremely happy!

APC - who sponsored fast time in each class with a generous prize fund and awards.

I personally ended up with a 2nd place in the years points challenge and just missed winning it all (first place for the weekend and the year) by less than a second (BREAKOUT) in the 4th round and of course having a cut.

On a personal note, I would like to thank my caller this year. Steve Nickerson, you the man. Thank you for the support and the solid effort.

Jim Smith (Skids.... not that other Jim Smith that is one of the best pilots out there.... you had to be at the event to know what I'm saying).
