Default RE: Rivets Kits?

I got one of the plans on the Rivets in the computer hard drive. This was done via Jerry Nelson circa 1965. In talking to Jerry, he said a latter Tee tail design done following years was faster-better. but his rendition was not quite fast enough to become #1 for 1966 or later. Most due to fault of pilot he said, for others using same exact plan were overall better.

Am working on other significant pylon racers at this time to concentrate on the subtile revisions between his variants.
