The 2011 Pylon Racing season will be starting before we know it. I thought I'd throw out some ideas on various subjects.

- Change the name of the Foamie Warbird class to the "Reno 450" Class.

-As Steve Cole mentioned, the top 3 or 5 finishers in the T-28 class for the year are unable to race in the class the following year. Perhaps a seperate expert class should be established.

-EDF 64 Class. Jet Racing! . The class would use the 3 receiver ready ducted fan jets available from Hobby Lobby. They sell for 119.99 and the include everything except a receiver. Even the battery is included!  The jets are an F9F Panther, Mig 15, and a F-86. I think this would be great class that would utilize the latest in technology in RC at an affordable price.  Cheaper than a T-28!

Be sure to share thoughts on these ideas.

 Grin Grin Attention Pylon Racers,

   Since we are coming down to the end of the season and the points race is very close we will try are best
to run on Sunday. As the time goes on Sundays forecast is getting worse Cry but, It maybe raining at your house but not at the field. I will be there no matter what Just in case we get to race. If you want call me in the A.M. on Sunday 322-5318. I live in Healdsburg so I can tell you if it's not raining.

Adam

P.S. Don't forget to sleep in an hour or show up early and practice.
