Let's hit'm hard this year on why in the heck there is a turbo charged aircraft in the otherwise pure Formula RG class.. Huh, Huh?

And btw, the Sun 100 is the next big fun, no?

PS: Two years ago Eric agreed with me that it was rather silly. Additionally, he mentioned that as the race grows it'll make more classes. I think we had 75 racers last year. Perhaps we can nudge'm again.

Larry,

Ok, so you got the first excuse posted. You do demonstrate an obsessive-compulsive need to be first.

The Race Classes are changed. Unlimited is turbo charged, 1400 ci or less. RG is retractable, 360 ci or less with sub classes for 360 (Blue) and 320 (Red). While the RG class does not specifically exclude turbo charged engines, the Unlimited specifically includes such. Super charged engines are not mentioned. Perhaps we should seek clarity from Eric. I am pleased to be racing in an appropriate sub-class and I hope other 320 wheel-tuckers will join the foray.

I am sorry I won't be able to directly challenge you and your oversized engine, but the final numbers will tell all. BTW, if "slower" class airplanes start first, you'll never catch me.
