Duane,
Sorry I left off my smiley face after my nose gear comment....

I think you/me/Steve/Mike and others have a good idea that to balance that 4 stroke something had to go.....so I'll make certain I put in my smiley faces when I make sly/sarcastic comments like that...

I certainly wasn't trying to take a jab at you... just poking a little fun....
I think we have an exciting year coming up with new events coming up for both BPA and SPA type fliers. I do want to seriously state again that the merging of the two groups will be at the BPA events due to the rule flexibility AND that I am making no jab/slice at the SPA to change that format in any way.
The person who started this thread wanted a discussion and it seems that is what is happening... so let's just enjoy the ride.
Dan
