Re: ** Texas Pylon Classic - Oct 21 **

For those of you who can attend, please make all effort to do so. If we have a good outcome, I'm hoping the club will consider making this an annual event.

Re: ** Texas Pylon Classic - Oct 21 **

I understand. Unfortunately, this was all I could get with the Houston club. I will do my best to avoid overlap next year.
Either way, I don't expect it to impact either race significantly.

RESULTS ADDED---** Texas Pylon Classic - Oct 21 **

We have confirmation from the club at Scobee field in Houston, TX to host a race the weekend of October 21. I will work on getting a flyer up on Monday. We will run 426 and 422 for sure. We will run EF-1 and 424 as long as we have entries to support. For those who have never been, Scobee is a great ...

Phoenix Formula 1 Race

Got a bit of history for you when you have some time to watch. I found an old VHS from one of the original Phoenix Form 1 races. I asked a friend to make a digital copy. He put it up on YouTube. It's a 2 part and it's pretty long, but there's a lot of history in it. Looks like there were over 40 ent...

Re: TEXAS Racing September

I almost forgot, I also owe Dub Jett a big thank you. As he regularly does, at the beginning of the contest, Dub offered up a 426 engine for the top points earner for the weekend.

After all was said and done, Dan Coe won the 426 engine as the Top Gun prize. Congrats Dan, and thanks Dub.

Re: TEXAS Racing September

This year's Salt Grass/Mosquito Classic is in the books. Thanks to everyone who came out to race. Overall we had a great time, and there were plenty of barn burning heats. I'm sorry for the delay on Saturday morning with getting the equipment to communicate, but I have some ideas to correct that in ...

Re: TEXAS Racing September

Last update... Looks like we'll have 24+ entries spread out across the events. Should be good fun racing. Field is in good shape. I've got one small project that we have to take care of Friday morning, but the club will be helping me out with that. We had several dry months with a couple weeks of ra...

Re: TEXAS Racing September

Update for everyone... Looks like we have a pretty good race shaping up. I need a few of you "pros" to enter the 424 event. I've got 4 brand new guys coming that have never been to a pylon race entering 424, and they need some experienced guys to race with. 2 of them are juniors, which I'm pretty pu...

Re: Jett Tanker

If you have one of the older plungers with all of the grooves marked on it, they each represent a volume. Can't remember the graduations, but Dub should be able to tell you.
