Re: 3m speed tape

Cory, Dan Kane has or had a connection with this tape. From what I understand it is no longer for sale by 3M, but there is a large stash of it available. If he can't get you connected with the person, I bought a bunch and can bring you a sleeve at the nats. I think they come in a sleeve of 6. Gary Jr.

Moving to that weekend would take Brody and myself out of being able to go.

Re: Texas Race 2024 "Quickie 500 Championship?"

DC,

From what I understand the bid was already put in for those dates.

I love the idea of a champ race for Q500. Is there really no other weekend that will work?

Muncie would be a fine place, but not jammed in with the nats. iMO.

Re: Texas Race 2024 "Quickie 500 Championship?"

The after nats TT was only 1 of 3 options that were up for discussion. And the nats was the least favored of the 3. OJA is the premier spot for any race and for sure a TT where there is nothing else going on. Jamming it in after the nats is not doing a TT justice. Seems like there are TOO MANY discu...

Re: what plane is this?

Is that an original DK Miss Foxy Lady with a Lyle wing (dago)?

Re: Picking race dates

Thanks for the feedback, most was useful. Some was not.. :o :oops: :P :lol: I guess the takeaway from all this is, of course if you can avoid overlap do it, but don't make it a show stopper for your race if you can't. We will never get new blood if they think they have to travel and spend even more ...

Re: Picking race dates

Ray, Good point, but I think we are kind of talking 2 different things. I agree shipping for a 1 class event is much easier, because a lot less to pack. I also agree a big 2 day Q40 race (like Phoenix used to be or a champ race) is usually a big draw contest and overlap should be avoided. My point i...

Re: Picking race dates

Sorry Doug, I don't agree and I don't think EF1 or 424 is going to bring in much if any at all. I have tried to host 424 and EF1 on the local level and can't get 2 guys to show up for the past 4 years, but I keep trying. Question, how many guys do you think the Oct. Basin race would lose if we hoste...

Picking race dates

Wanted some opinions. We have a club in Florida that use to host races willing to do so again. Here is the issue, the club gave them a 2 month window to host. Sept/Oct. In the past this would be no issue, but it seems now listening to some, that having more then one race in the entire country in the...
