+100 on hearing Tiger is preparing to have Strega on the ramp this year.

I wonder who will fly her?

That seems to be the million dollar question. The rumors vary from almost believable to full on WTF?!?

This may be a dumb question, I seem to specialize in those, but why wouldn't Stevo be at the stick?

Tom Nightengale?! As far as LD goes I think he just wants to spend more time with his family.

I love it when someone pulls the pin on a very large grenade and walks quietly from the room...especially when it is a respected member of the community.

As and true racer would do. Love it Papa Nixon!

Well that would make the most sense, but since when does air racing make any sense. The rumor mill is going crazy at the moment saying everyone from Stevo to Matt Jackson will be in that seat. See also all the rumors that tie Stevo to the Bear and Voodoo. This may be the year we know what is coming, but might very well be shocked by who is driving it.

OK, just to squash the rumor mill, I'll be rowing the stick in Strega this year. You can all stop speculating now

Hey, I should have my PPL come Sept., I'll be WAY overqualified to just push a Gee Bee, and Tiger knows it!

LMAO. Right on. Did your kid solo the Gee Bee before you even got your PPL? I assume you'll be there in Sept?

Yep, we'll be there! Haven't decided on HOW we'll get there (fly or drive), but we'll be there. He hasn't QUITE gotten the pedalling thing down yet, but he's close. He's also starting to say lines from TOR before the actors say them Not bad for just turning 3, I think
