Shawn, I can promise you one thing. You will probably clean my clock.

Max, Ill be there for that week as well. The 3 of us can get you up to speed " Rocky Balboa " style!!!

It's my understanding, even though it's the City of North Las Vegas Park's facility, that anyone practicing more than one day, prior to any event, SHALL provide all local (CNLV fully paid members) participants with appropriate items such as FG tee's, RCBlimp tailwheels etc. prior to comencing any practice fights.

Yeah, I think I read that somewhere.

Shawn... In all seriousness, could you please bring a replacement "large" tailwheel to Bakersfield with you. I really, really need one.

Thanks!

Well John, if you weren't so insistant on those show-off landings... you know, the ones where the tailwheel touches first and rolls 25' before the mains touch down... your tailwheel would last you longer.

Dave.. You're just too kind. Really, it's when I hit the ground doing 25 and it's all I can do with the rudder wiggle-waggle to woah her up that really does a number to those things.
