Tach Race ???????????????

Agreed.  Where'd the year go?  I don't know!  Maybe this time I'll sit it out & let my record stand.  It's always a last minute rush for me & I don't think I will have anything extra to offer this time around, particularly since the surprise performance of my Aussie Bee Mouse...Bee....whatever    last time.  Not sure there's much more I can do to improve its rpm.  It's a freak.

Well you deserve a break Kim. You've done us proud for a few years so maybe it's time for someone else to step up. Maybe even time for a break from the race for a while. Bring it back in a couple of years and it will be all fresh again. With Tach Race, Reed Speed, Traveling Prop, Traveling engine, Prop-Rod thingy, maybe it's just got us all too busy. For us "young 'uns" who still work full time and more, we're a little time-poor already. Sure, I'd love to have a go at a few more competitions, but it ain't going to happen for a while. Got a Ringmaster Bipe to finish yet to add a couple more flights to the Aussie total in the "a-thon", along with another 3-4 kits and a couple of rebuilds. All gets a bit too much.

Rod.

Thanks for your work running the last three (I think) races Kim. Each year added more classes and last year was probably hard to run.
Must be a bear trying to start a bunch of over compressed engines!! I enjoyed the shows you put on and will miss them.
I would try to run the race but don't think I could do what you did.
Thanks again
Doug
