| Subject: | Sun 'N Fun Race Announcement |
--> Yak-List message posted by: Craig Payne <cpayne@mc.net>
Yakkers,
Announcement for next year's Aircraft Spruce sponspored races have been
released. While the 100 mile race is only for amateur-built
experimentals, production aircraft, registered as experimetal can enter
the 60 mile race. I have done this for 2 years with my CJ-6. If 4 or
more A/C of the same type enter, a separate class will be formed.
While it's not a real "race", it is a competition of both precision
flying and a well-prepared machine. Sometimes the result is good
publicity. A couple of results I found interesting; you get hooked on
"doing better next year", and each year, about 7 out of the 10 fastest
aircraft in the product race just happen to be warbirds.

Sure, just as a 57 Chevy can beat a restored 82 Porsche...
As for the "Yak-wannabe" paint job, you couldn't be further off the
mark...
As for Hal stepping in for me...we need to get him back from Tahiti
first. I know I'd be tempted to stay....
