Re: Great Times!
Great Times indeed!!!!!
My Cousin (see above) and I had a blast this year at Reno, despite all the weather we encountered. It was awsome to see the Bear and Dago go at it one more time. And even better to see the Bear win the Gold. It was really special for my cousin and I to see the Bear (a plane we have pulled for since we were just kids at an airshow) win the gold again. The whole Bear team deserves a huge thank you from all the fans for their dedication to keeping that pesky plane in the air the whole weekend.
There was also some great racing going on in other classes as well with Al Goss and Warlock winning in T6 and Greenamyer duking it out with the Thunder Mustang.
Well the countdown is on now until next year. BTW does any body know what the dates for next year are yet?? I am scheduling vacation first thing when I return to work tommorow.
It was good to meet some of the ppl who post on this board like Stevo and Gary who seem to enjoy this wonderful sport as much as my Cousin and I. And now I look forward to meeting more of you next year.....See ya at the Races!!!!!!
Nick
P.S. People have been saying if for two years now "The Bear is Back".....Well I think after the gold win, its time we modified it to "The Bear is back on Top!!!" And lets hope she stays there!!!

Re: Great Times!
Originally posted by Air Race AddictSorry about that Nick. The airraceaddict.com banner got "misplaced" temporarily, so we didn't have a way to mark the basecamp on the fence. In the future, you can always look for the "Make No Wake" sign we plant next to the road. It's been a steadfast icon at the Air Race Addict basecamp since 95. We'll be there next year so stop and say hi, watch a race or two.

We'll have to keep an eye out next year for those signs!!! Where abouts where you on the fence line?? Up more towards the North Pylon 6?? Or more south towards Pylon 7??? My cousin and I will definitely be out there again next year to see ya!!
