 |  ACRO CHIMP,,PURPLE?
So I pull into Thistledown and hop out of the car and hear a huge swarm of killer bees and a Ferrari blasting down a rural road. No wait,it's in the air! Blessed mother of Divine horse power, it's the Chimp in his CAP!! He comes blasting in, pulls vert and does 8 rolls. Something has changed my friends! Seems Matt has a brand new motor and what a difference! Lycoming's new Thunderbolt series of motors has really done something special . The new combination lit that baby up! (This in NO WAY is a rear shmooching for Matt, it's GIANT ups to Lycoming!) The other interesting fact is the motor is purple. Matt has named it Barney the pissed off motor. I know why! That beotch has oompah! If you've seen Matt fly before the new motor,you haven't seen him fly. Torque rolls? Tail slides? DAMN!!! He's REALLY close to coming all the way back to vertical in waterfalls. And rolling harriers. This reporter was impressed. Gotta hand it to you Acro Chimp, you've taken it to the next level. (OK there I wrote it. Do I get the new owners addition Thunderbolt hat now???)

Specs; Badass. Purple. Bitchin. STUPID power. Endorsed by Biff. I flew Matt's Cap a couple weeks ago. Though the aileron spades are off for my flying, it's a superior machine. One thing I instinctively noticed is how much more low end torque was available. Though you might think top end RPM made the biggest improvement, it's the gut wrenching torque at low power sttings that really made the Cap 580 a joy to fly.
