I may doom our chances of getting the launch in by doing this, but since I'll be in Mexico (for work, not fun) the next three days, I want to get the launch info posted.
Let me know if you are planning on coming out. Also, if you need motors, our on field vendor, Robert (aka Pyrobob) of BuyRocketMotors.com, will be in attendance. Maybe one day he'll actually get to fly a rocket. :y:
