No credit for the owner or the caller?  Just kidding, great job Bill, I mean Mister Adams  I think I created a monster  Probably will not get the airplane back now, darn I will have to build me a new one  Nice picture, you look good in red!

Bill and the plane and power plant (DA150) flew great all week. But in the Gold race, for him to come across the line in 3rd yet win it, means his caller had him on the course, hitting every pole, while the planes in front were getting cuts. Congrats to Mr Bill and Mr Treat. May I still call you Martin? Marty |

OK....OK.....Nice job Martin.....What do mean not heart felt!!!?? That was heart felt!! At any rate, Martin it was very generous of you to let Bill fly your plane. You guys made good team......He does look good in red..its just missing a couple of capital letters and his name embroidered....hint...hint.... Great job guys!!! Now I'm done kissing your ass...we will battle it out in Intermediate Imac next year for bragging rights!!

FWIW the fastest airplane at the meet didn't win..The Wreckless Racing Tsunami flown by the Pres and powered by a Herbrandson 289 turned a 1:17 something witn NO cuts..Unfortunately he didn't make all the heats and had to settle for first place in silver, also not reported......I wasn't there but was told he clocked 231+ mph ON THE COURSE.... Maybe Martin can confirm ....  I know, second place is the first loser...

Ralph is correct but in the Gold Bill and I also turned a 1:17 so maybe the the most consistent fast airplane won And just to pat Bill and my backs a little, we only had 8 seconds in the turns. Very similiar to Kenny and Scott's win in Ohio when they only had 7 seconds in the corners flying the same airplane motor combination. |

I was going to take on the burden of all the hot chicks, fame and fortune that comes with the limelight. Now the cat is out of the bag and we know it was an equal team effort between the pilot and the caller. Sorry Martin i am not responsible if you cant handle the fame and fortune....I know you can handle the hot chicks, so no worries there.  | ||||||||||||||||||

There is no doubt Donny's Tsunami was crazy fast. This was only the first race with it too. Once he gets it all worked out that thing will be unbelievable. I am looking forward to seeing that thing cook. Bill A. | ||||||||||||||||||
