I've checked with the El Paso Club. They are planning on having a contest in '08, which is good news for those of us West of IH 35.

No I didn't. I've been exchanging emails with their Club President. All he knows right now is that they're going to have one and that Doug will be the CD. I'll send them a note asking them to please pick a different date.

So, I've promised myself that this is the year I'm going to get my butt out of the shop and go to the boot camp. Looking forward to meeting some people.

Fantastic article Rick. I enjoyed reading and learning about the direct drive system and how simple and serviceable it is. How can I put it in a cmp arf? ha ha

When do you think the minimac site will be updated so we can pre-register for all the contests we plan to attend. I did register for the judging / flying school and will se you there. I hope t oget more out of it this year as last year I was a newbie. I should be able to understand better now.

Keep up the good work for the South Central and see you soon.

Gary, I'm going to start updating the pre-register site as soon as I can. I'm waiting on some more of the contest to confirm also.

Thanks for the comments on the article. I bet we can get into a comp arf.

Rick

Been watching the weather for some of you guys in the northern areas of the region and see news about lost power and ice everywhere. I would be lost in that stuff. It looks terrible.

I wish all of you and you families safe and joyous Christmas.
