The C Speed event was a local event for rat racers. I flew my Johnson 35 rat that day in Rat Race and blew a head gasket at about 10 laps. That was my last contest until in the mid 70's when I got back into modeling.

Yes Jim, The Johnson didn't really need much of a reason to blow that miserable fibre gasket at the slightest provication, We had aluminum gaskets for it and that ended the problem. Dennis
