We had enough to make an official race, was a blast watching me crash.  :lol Missed fraggman though. This weeks track should be up tonight I was out sick all weekend long didnt have the heart to test planes on the tracks. I think its all those pylons that go wooshing by so fast made me ill to the tummy.  :sad-056:

[_AH_fraggmann]

Sorry Lippy...had a real busy day at work (kooky). Three people called in sick
and I had to help pick up the slack :thinking-008:. Bottom line is THE COUCH MONSTER GOT ME!!!!!!!!!!!! :surprised-041:

[_AH_Lippy]

No problem Bro, I know that feeling very well. This weeks track is the Up and Down Track it is a familiar track once you fly a lap or two you might remember it. the plane is a fast one and it aint the KI it is the LA-7R R stands for Rocket. So this baby is dual engine and requires full fuel to run the rocket. So do your testing and make sure the stop watches are accurate cause this is going to be a close one.

Next track will be BB's favorite the rolling hills the plane is unknown at this time. I would like for Ghost, Jack and all to post what track they like the best. And I will fit it in the schedule, describe it if you don't remember the name.  (wavey)

[_AH_Lippy]

 :lol Now thats the way to travel I can see it all cops drunks drug addicts all piled in a field.

[_AH_Lippy]

I have made a miscallculation on the times for practice and starting the races. Some how I started practice one hour earlier than last season. I thank my fellow racer BBQ for politely pointing out the errors of my ways. So I will send a PM to Hogan and Archie, and DW that i need to change the calender. So practice will start at 2100 ET and the first Heat at 2200 ET.  (wavey)

[_AH_DarkWolf]

Huh, yeah those are the times I was announcing at the last meeting and you corrected me. I thought you were starting an hour earlier to try and get more racers or something. It's easy enough to change the calendar.

DW

[_AH_Lippy]

i aint always right but I am never wrong  :lol

[_AH_Lippy]

Here is the scoring from last weeks race. We need to be careful on our starts there were some mighty close to anticipating the words GO GO GO. You are not allowed to spool up till the words GO GO GO are seen. I am not saying that anyone is but it is close which what racers do push the limits. It is next to impossible to exactly tell if anyone even myself are spooling up too fast. So lets be vigilant and watch it. Good luck tonight, I think the next plane is going to surprise all of you it did me.


Heat 1
1 Lippy            15

Some excellent racing tonight guys. Here is the track it is the Roller Coaster with EXPERT ON and the plane is the B-17E have fun and give yourself plenty of room. Go as wide as possible to make the S turns.

Oh ya I almost forgot I gave myself a warning for racing without nav and smoke next offense is doc one position.

[_AH_DarkWolf]

B-17E! Now that's something different.

Heres a thought, this is an aircraft that does have level stab. I assume people are not allowed to use it?

DW

[_AH_fraggmann]

Why not..was it not a feature of the aircraft :lol-029:

[_AH_Lippy]

That is correct NO LEVEL STABILIZER ALLOWED in AH Air Racing. I dont see any where it can be used anyway.
