Well, the boys have been working real hard on the AflacMacToolsValvoline Raider down to the Atlanta shop and she'll be ready for testing this weekend. Thanks for asking Jamie.

Nah it's hollow, like WWE wrestling. A lot of hollering, stomping around, spitting. But all part of the show.

In the end it's just a bunch of little sport planes buzzing around in a circle.

After some planes are built I would think a race could break out at any time.

Joe's right folks. We're just kidding around and talking light smack. This whole deal is geared at having some very simple and evenly matched racing.
Thats why we went with the Raider ARFs. It doesnt get any more simpe than this plane. Already we have three other clubs showing interest in getting this started in their gangs.

Im heading out to the shop tonight to get some graphics on my Raider. Maybe even get started on teh carb work. Remember,,,,, I'll be taking pics during the carb changes to show all of you.
I want to get started breaking my engine in soon, but I need to locate a quart of castor oil first. Ive had several quarts go through my shop in years past, but always gave it away to someone who needed it. Now I need some!!!! Anyone got a quart sitting around?
Talking with Blair Price at the meeting last night, he was saying he's already got his TT Pr 40 on the test stand and running some break in fuel through it now. That boy is ready to race!

Hey Kent,

If I can get in gear and actually practice a little I figured I'd start in Intermediate in a couple of the more local contests.
