Well. I had Kyle picked for free, and Janon Noll picked for Unlimited. No crystal ball for me I guess.

Just got back not to long ago. All i can say is what a great event, both pilots and people. I would have to say that the best pilot to watch was Mark just becuase of his awsome precision and style.

Thanks for the shirt mad max, you guys rock.
