Re: Silly Season 2014

NO!!! I was too much of a Rookie at the time to realize what I had seen. it was only my second trip to NCAR and I was still in total awe of everything. If I had it ...I would share with the world.

Ha Ha, Been there, done that! I've missed numerous opportunities for the same reason.(deer in the headlights look)

The Super Corsair is at Ione, 232 should be faster than last year. I spoke with Brian yesterday, told him we see him at Reno.

I ask Brian about the performance of the Super Corsair, I thought the plane would have been faster.

As the world's biggest 232 fan (ducking wrenches from...everyone), must have news on the ole' girl. Has she flown yet?

Not yet. They are finishing up a few small details. Engine runs are complete and it should fly soon.

That's why I didn't mention her.

Re: Silly Season 2014

Now thinking about time-wise, whose gonna be doing the one month left thrashes??
232 seems ready
Voodoo sounds ready to go as far as I know
Strega, engine still in the shop I assume?
PM, engine in place, prop back on, refinements starting now?
Czech Mate, haven't heard anything about her but they did pretty well getting her together last year
The Bear, I think the Bear is gonna be cutting it the closest but what else is new.
Dreadnought, not sure how she is? Probably not going to be an issue getting her there.
Tobul's corsair/Sawbones, these both require major fixing, if anyone doesn't show up I think I can bet it would be these
Miss A, still think she's coming with a full race motor, Jim Lawrence and Trevor Merton are so full of secrecy that something is in the works for sure... Month and a half boys.

No, news has been good but she should be flying next year. I know we always say next year, but some people in the program have told me she should fly early to mid next year.

Re: Silly Season 2014

Being a newbie to all this, I'm going to ask a newbie question, so pardon me.

That interview with Stevo and Tiger...was that all in fun or were they serious? Tiger sure didn't seem happy and Stevo wasn't exactly mincing words either. And given how Tiger was pretty much Stevo's entry into racing...wow.

Anything from those of you who may know them? I found it kinda unsettling.
