Re: Warbirds

Hi Ray It’s a good question. The supply ran out last year, so it’s hit and miss to a few who are sitting on some kits. The JR rep is working with World Models to get a big shipment asap. Some on the west coast are building or buying scratch build kits or making their own molds to generate options. H...

Re: Picking race dates

We don’t have to agree..lol and I’m not saying don’t do it. I was asking if an attempt can be made to avoid other dates if possible.
