If the demand is for much more than (18) spaces we may consider another 30’x 60’ tent. Paid reservations for a space must be made by July 31st. Our cost is Unknown yet per space (Donations to offset the difference would not be turned down) therefore any cancellations after August 1st are nonrefundable. Unless you bring your own, there will not be any other shade provided.

Absolutely the best food from Smiley’s BBQ will be available for purchase Friday, Saturday & Sunday.

The field, with a 600' paved runway will be closed for regular sport flying and open for race practice September the 8th. Practice fuel will be available for purchase.

Please note registration will close Friday night. You will not be in the matrix otherwise.
Tech inspection ends Friday night. Pilots will be required to demonstrate fail safe mode.
AMA and NMPRA membership required.

Once again, we will not be printing the matrix or race results, they will posted on line and displayed on a large monitor in the pavilion. Judgeman light system.

Practice on race days from 7:00 am to 8:00 am. Pilots meeting 8:00 am. Racing starts 8:30 a.m. Sat & Sun.

Pilots will be shuttled back and forth to the starting line. If you are not on the shuttle once it leaves the final staging area you are out of that heat.
You will not be able to chase the shuttle or walk out to the line.
We will also have a 4-wheeler with a driver that will retrieve planes that have landed either short or long.
We have a lot of flying to get in, so we appreciate everyone’s cooperation in keeping things moving.
Time schedule will be Strictly Enforced!!!

After the Sunday racing and flyoffs we will be presenting trophies, cash prizes and drawing give away. It would be best not to plan any Sunday afternoon flights.

Please let me know if there are any cancellations or additions. Soon I will attach the link for the flyer and registration form.

Look forward to seeing you in our beautiful Colorado Summer. Can you run and win a mile high?

Would like a tent space. It is hard for those of us coming from the East Coast to bring a tent.
