            I'm just finishing up with Thursday...final review, rearrange, and rename is left. Only 4 more days of a little over 2100 pictures left before I get to bundle them all into a neat little (???) folder called Reno 2007. Never thought I would get through the smokey days of earlier in the week.

              Can't forget Da Bear. Just thought of something. Anyone know the RPM of that little tail wheel on touch down?

                      Nice pics everybody, but not done yet?? I spent it seems every spare hour, every weekend since Reno to get through them all.

                      Now I get to finish the rest of the summer that I put off!!

                        My guess is 4482 RPM

                        *IF* the wheel is 9" in diameter, then:
                        the circumference is: 28.27" (9 X 3.1415)
                        *IF* the touchdown speed is 120 MPH, then:
                        RPM's is 4482:
                        (((120/60) X 5280)X12)/28.27

                        for a touch down speed of 80 MPH, then:
                        RPM's is 2988

                        I know that's kinda fast (the 120 MPH) and the tail wheel won't touch down till much later, but you can change the numbers around for your guess. (if I did it right)

                          Jarrod, love the PM prop shot. You can never get too many of those.
                          No pixels were harmed, honest.

                            Excellent work Mister. I'd like a great shot of Race #57 going by the stands.

                              That hard rubber tail wheel looked less than 9" diameter to me this last year and the speeds I have heard are in knots. I would have guessed higher than 4482 but instead of doing the math I played with pictures. What ever it is, I bet that thing is zinging when it hits.
