CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFO
Rules: You may post *one (1) picture of an engine or a group of engines that are alike (for example: a collection of Space Bug Jr.s that feature each color tank). The engine must be a Cox engine, it can be stock or parts built. Cox engines using aftermarket or handmade parts and multi-cylinder engines are allowed as long as they feature Cox made crankcase(s) and cylinder(s). Although proof isn't required, engines that are built using aftermarket or handmade parts have to be able to run. A good example of a non-running homemade engine that wouldn't qualify for this contest is found HERE. Disassembled engines are allowed as long as all parts are visible and the engine is in running condition when assembled.
If you are unsure if your picture qualifies, feel free to contact the administrator with questions.
* You may post multiple "pictures" as long as they are all joined together in one picture. (This is done in image editing software before uploading)
MAIN POINTS
•One picture
•Picture shall be of one engine or engines that are alike (a Babe Bee and a Tee Dee .049 together would NOT qualify)
•Must be a Cox Engine
•Engines using aftermarket or handmade parts must feature Cox made crankcase(s) and cylinder(s)
•Engine must be able to run
Optional Caption
Along with your picture you may include a caption that describes or explains the picture. The caption should include the name and displacement of the engine. The caption has to be short as if you picture wins, it will be posted under the picture in the sidebar. If you do not include a caption, one will be thought up for you.
After 5 days, the first 10 pictures will be moved to another topic to be voted on by other members. The winner will have their engine displayed on the sidebar of the forum and forever listed on the past winners page.
Looking forward to see what you guys come up with! Good Luck!
BE SURE TO READ THE RULES

Mike, how come you didn't fly your yellow plane in the speed contest? It's beautifully done and looks mean just sitting there. Reminds me of the Shoestring, probably the yellow color but you did a nice job on that plane and I'm certain it would've moved and grooved nicely on the circle. Ken

Thanks Ken . I'm still trying to find a spot to fly the plane , some one to help launch and time and I don't know how to post a video or have a way to do so . I'm hoping to fly in one of the events when I can sort every thing out . That is if I can still go roundy round with out falling down on my butt . Seems like model airplane flying is disappearing around here in Northern Ohio . Maybe next time .

Mike, not sure exactly where you are but some guys still fly at the Rouge River site in Detroit. It has a paved circle I think. I would only go when there are other people there. We are flying at the Beanfield near Dresden Ontario this weekend. Likely 3 hr drive into a different country, passport....

Aspeed ,
I flew Rat and combat up near Detroit many moons ago with ( against ) the Adamisions and John Kilsdonk . Rouge park ??? I don't think I would drive that far now in days to fly my 1/2 a ship . Also flew indoor Free Flight up in Flint . Now in days I don't do much driving , maybe 50 miles from home the most . Thanks for the idea but I will keep on trying to find some help around here Lorain - Cleveland area .

I remember Kilsdonk from the day. We used to go to the Cleveland Jr. air races and Dayton in the 1970s. A bunch of good guys went there. Johnny Smith, Frank Garzon. I was just a skinny kid then. I go shopping near Rouge park, but heard bad things happen there. It is probably less than 50 miles for me, but it costs me $12.50 to cross the bridge and I have to deal with the border Gestapo on both sides of the bridge. Not really a problem. I've been to the Flint circle but it has grown over pretty bad. They keep the grass cut nicely.Mike1484 wrote:Aspeed ,

A speed ,
I bet we crossed paths back in the 60's - 70's . Did you fly at any of the U.S. Nat's ?
