Something I must say. I do not pretend to be in charge but since i have commented on this rule, I need to clarify something. If you go out of bounds you must make an attempt to renter where you exited. In the past couple of races, some said they where lost and unsure of where the violation occurred. I have stated to enter as close to where you exited is fine. Sometimes it is hard to judge exactly where you exited/out of bounds, and I can only speak for my judging I would not DQ that person. But the key word was attempt you must turn around and enter in the area of the violation or be disqualified for the heat. I try to to be as fair as I can, but I will no longer make this statement, I think it has caused some confusion on the rule. For that I do apologize, from now on i will allow the moderator to comment on the rules.

[CPS_GreyFox]

~S~ all back from Hawai'i with a tan and a plan to get back to racing...

70 year old bullet holes on Ford island - http://flic.kr/p/bYAfLj

Hope to get some practice in - See you all on comms!

Those holes are incredible even better in person. The Philippines are full of old relics, seen 4 12in guns at an old fort with some pretty impressive indentations/holes in the skin of each gun and in some old cells I imagine held Philippine prisoners.

[_AH_Nimble]

I will try to get Week 8 uploaded by Monday 6-4-12

[_AH_Lippy]

Archie asked me upload this weeks track so here it is.

https://skydrive.live.com/?sc=documents&cid=7cd999872472e6dc#cid=7CD999872472E6DC&id=7CD999872472E6DC!1980&sc=documents

Practice, practice, practice   :lol :i-m-with-stupid-0101:

This track is known to eat planes alive with the treacherous hills, hidden turns, fast down hills, drooling long laps and last BUT BY NO MEANS LAST the finish line IS NOT THE START LINE (this is the track BBQ was talking about when the judging was modified) PAY ATTENTION, There will be no QUARTER GIVEN. When topping the hills YOU must make all attempts to be in BOUNDS AT THE BOTTOM. There for the Heats will be as follow.
Heat I 1 lap
heat II 2 laps
Heat III 3 Laps

and the plane J2M5 1944

Gentlemen the competition has been tough, clean and tons of fun. You better have your game faces on this Saturday because at 1700 PST its time to Kick the Tires and lite the fires cause its RACING TIME!!!!!!!! (wavey) May the best plane WIN.

[_AH_Lippy]

I must admit I was put in my place I believe for the first time. I got lippy with Archie in humor complaining about no laps mentioned when posted so the above post has been edited to I hope be accurate statements.

[_AH_Nimble]

A Little Racing Story:  This last saturday i was in Vancouver at Ghostbears house..... visiting for the first time with our good friend and first place racer. Ghostbear and his daughter were very gracious hosts and his daughter fixes a darn good cup of coffee......... race 1  ghostbear was flawless.... winning handily..... race 2.... ghostbear wins again flawlessly.... race 3...... 3rd lap..... we had been discussing how much speed he carried over  "the hill" ... trust  me I am very familiar with "over the hill".....   conversation went as follows:   Ghost  .... if i carry my speed through here I can top the hill at 300kmh...... Nimble wow... thats really fast.... Ghost: crap.... Im only getting 270 over the hill this lap......Nimble ... maybe your engine is a bit warm?  Ghost: nope... Ive tested it and I had it cooled down.. should be able to go all out rest of the race.. Nimble.. whats your speed now?????.... Ghost... as he looks down to check his actual speed.....nope Im doing 300 kmh..........ohhhhhhhh $h1t!!!!!!!!!! CRASH BAM BOOOM....    .... Nimble:: ohhh man Im sorry Ghost...didnt mean to distract you...... :surprised-027:............I think I am 86ed from visiting ghostbear during racing.......... forever lol.............. moral of the story.... once an AH always an AH..... (wavey)........and to my friend Ghost bear.... I am sorry.... :sad-056:

I think Archie owes you BIG TIME. :lol
