Default 11th Annual Texoma IMAC Challenge

Well its almost that time of year again. The 11th Annual Texoma IMAC Challenge is just around the corner. Sep 1st and 2nd. This year promices to be bigger and better than ever. Last year we had 48 pilots. I hope to break that recoed this year.
The field is in excellent condition. Cows Broke in earlier in the year and left huge divets. The club really pulled together and totally reworked and releveled the field. Luckly for us we had a higher than average rain and the field is totally covered with new Grass.
We will fly all classes Basic through Unlimited, QUAD F(Fun Flying Foamy Freestyle), and Freestyle.
Early registration will be open at 2:00pm on Friday August 31st, and the field will be open at 9:00am for early arrivals and practice.
There will be security at the field Friday and Saturday night so you can leave your trailers there.
Here is the Flyer with Hotel Info: http://texomarcmodelers.org

I will be there. But I have to learn a sequence first. .

Which one usually has the most pilots? Intermediate? Advanced? I was thinking of trying to go into intermediate first off.

do alot of guys fly that one at Texoma?

I know that you can not downgrade classes and that is fine with me, I am not really worried.

there will be more in intermediate, if you fly advanced and feel you need to move down then the imac RD can appove the move down, it just takes an e-mail.

If you plan on attending please pre register. It will help us to get off to a quick start.

Thanks
Dan

Now, you know, I've been up for this one since judging school in winter. I will be there and know some of the other cajuns will be coming up also. Probably won't bring and of that mouth watering cajun food though. That way you guys will want to come down that much more in the spring.
