~S~ Lippy
Thank you Sir. I hate to have to bring this up,specially after being commended,but I believe my total points should be 151 instead of 124. I have reviewed the tapes for heat #1 in slow-motion and if I was not penelized for being bumped high coming out of the last turn I actually crossed the finish line in 5th. place,I know it is only two points difference but it will give me a tie with Olds.

_AH_Lippy · June 11, 2014, 03:23:01 AM

Your right on both counts, I need to have DW say in this. I guess I missed the bump though I did wonder why you went so high I should have reviewed it closer. i will correct the points later its late and I need some rest.

I have a vote for all of you guys next weeks track is Pull My Finger and I want a vote on the plane

A20-G
Beaufighter MK 21
Mosquito B MK XVI

I should mention the the A20 and the Beaufighter roll rate is slower than the Mossy.

_AH_gatlingun · June 11, 2014, 04:07:06 AM

~S~

A20 G Is my choice.

_AH_Lippy · June 12, 2014, 12:43:10 AM

GatlinGun ruling stands as is.

_AH_Jack · June 12, 2014, 07:05:02 PM

See??? I suck.

_AH_fraggmann · June 12, 2014, 08:29:35 PM

I would like to see the Mosquito, (kooky) but the others could be fun too! :happy-112:

_AH_Lippy · June 13, 2014, 04:21:36 AM

Well gents I did not realize that we have already flown 2 double prop planes this season already so sorry for the vote thingy. Well after some serious thought and thinking oh wait those are the same thing lol anyway for our final race of the season I thought we could race a track I doubt most of you know or remember. It is flat it has a ton of corners and cross overs and you will get lost if you don't pay attention to the directional arrows and red lines. Without further A due the track is none other than Criss Cross flying the F4U-1C. Practice Practice Practice boys.

Heat 1 = 2 laps
Heat 2 = 3 laps
Heat 3 = 4 laps

And may the best man win it all all positions I believe (* I have not done the judging of the last race yet) are still up for grabs. ~S~ Kick the Tires and Lite the Fires boys see ya next week.

Well gents that's the Spring Season. The positions were close and I saw a lot of improvement in GatlinGun and Jack. Jack the first heat you were angled incorrectly and the torque drove you right into the pylons. The second heat looks like you had full up elevator and the plane lifted the right wheel and at a sharp left angle when the right wheel came down it straightened you out cause you to loose control causing you to nose over. GatlinGun you were talked about how racy you have become you were in the front lead on several occasions and gave some of us a run for our money, I know the points don't show it but they will. Jack Practice Practice Practice which is hard for you i know with all of your collateral duties. I am available for lessons in racing for anyone that wants to improve. I am sorry that the last race of the season was rushed, Because of that no warnings or penalties were handed out except for one. Until we can find a fix for the incidental kicking of pilots AH-Logo and Criss Cross is off the schedule. I have some new additions/alterations to the rules I would like to submit for approval. I also want to know how everyone felt about the new scoring. Should we keep it or go back to the old way of 2 points for DQ and DNF.
Here are the official standings.

_AH_DarkWolf · June 25, 2014, 09:12:02 PM

Yeah good racing guys, thanks for administering the racing Lippy and thanks to Ghostbear for decking us out in skins for every race. I just got lucky with the DNFs.
