NMPRA

No biggie, it was a LONG time ago!
Definitely looks more like Vincennes than Muncie.

I think that may be a Nats? I wasn't at the Decatur Champ Race, but I'm in this pic between Chip Hyde and Jim Allen. lol

Oh good. I was going to send you some money but I’ll just buy a couple new airplanes instead!

There were a handful of NMPRA Q500 Championship races for 428 Quickie in the early 90's. I know one was in Phoenix (pre-Nelson) and one was run by Dickie Ritch in Houston (post-Nelson). I think there was also one in Alabama, but not sure if it was before or after Houston, or whether it was pre or po...

FAI F3T event is not head to head racing! FAI prefers the time trial approach. Virtually all motor sports feature head to head racing. Time trails are used in qualifying for starting order.

I’m in the same boat as Dennis. Never was able to make the past races, and have a work trip scheduled over the proposed weekend, but would love to come in the future!

Rocket, actually I have you for seven races. It was my mistake as I forgot to check one last thing before I submitted; sorry about that. I had all seven races entered but forgot to un-zero a column. You moved up quite a bit. I think next year I will post the column that shows name/membership status...

Scotty,

Jim Allen and myself have been using them without issue since they came out a few years ago.

Gordon, it would be more interesting to see Scott using one of these!

LOL. I went 1:05.07 for 11 laps on a 7.5. Also got 1st and FT (with a 59) at the 2017 Nats with a 7.5.

That wasn't even the fastest prop in Q40!

Which prop is the fastest

First and FT both used the 7.5.
