It is completely up to SideBurn Commissioner Sabrina. She may like little patterns in them. Or the color of your Sharpie. Or braids. Or how well you can carry a tune. Or if you have an avatar on TRF.
Hint: Why can't you make book in Vegas on professional wrestling? The only sport you can't bet on?

No waiver on the night launch, so Class 1 rockets only. Limited to 3.3 pounds rocket weight, 125 grams propellant, G motor or smaller.
Have a good Midwest Power everyone. Maybe next year for me.

As refunds are not available, I find myself with 3 extra banquet tickets. Anyone needs any, look me up at RSO. If you ask nicely, I won't even charge you!

So what's everyone flying? I'm hoping to get three flights in:
- 5.5" Nike on an AT L-900 Dark Matter
- 4" Eclipse SS on an M-1500 Mojave Green
- 54mm MAC Monarch on a K-535 DMS (should do about 12-13K)
- 5.5" Nike on an AT L-900 Dark Matter
- 4" Eclipse SS on an M-1500 Mojave Green
- 54mm MAC Monarch on a K-535 DMS (should do about 12-13K)

I got two planned so far.
Wildman Wild Thing Extreme on a AT M1550 Redline
Wildman Interceptor AAD 98 on a CTI L1355 Smoky Sam
If I get time yet, I might prep My PR Mad Maxx for a N3300 Redline
But that's only if I get time. Right now I'm still finishing up the other 2.

T minus 9 days, but who's counting? I AM!
The calm before the storm: most of the 57 grains of Sconnie propellant being prepped for MWP!

Umm... dang! That's a lot of grains. I'm assuming they're all going in one rocket, right?
Care to share what the names of the propellants are?
In order of what I want to launch, my mix of HPR and LPR:
1. L3 flight - 8" scratch built PAC-3 Patriot on a Loki M1969
2. 4" Binder Design Excel 54mm on CTI J295
3. 3" scratch built on CTI I223 Skidmark
4. Estes Scion on F20 and G68
5. 4" scratch built SAAB RBS15 with strap on boosters on K500 + 2 x J330 boosters
6. (if low winds) Estes MIRV
7. Madcow Solar Express on F20 and G68
I'm having trouble getting my strap on boosters to fit right, so #5 is dicey. I could just launch the main airframe on the K500 sustainer, but I'd rather save the $$ and wait until I'm happy with the boosters. If I don't fly it, I might bring it for others to critique.
That list might be ambitious. At a minimum, I want to get the top 3 launched.

Absolutely; one airframe only! 23" in diameter, 17.3594' tall, 325lbs.
Only three propellant types this time around: Sparky, White, and RP4. Sparky and White are Sconnie flavors, RP4 is a clone of one of my all time favorite "commercial" propellants with a storied past. Here's to you, Frank!

You gotta put this in units that people understand- it's 2.7 Cayembergs in size.

Please tell me that launches on Saturday!
It depends. Last time he did this, one of the tie down straps to his car broke, and he couldn't do the "rocket boosted car" that he wanted to do. Not sure if he was going to do that again this year, or the "rocket powered dumpster". I'm bringing some crazy glue, just in case he has a tie down issue again this year

Nick, Mark,
I was answering Glen's slightly silly question with a slightly silly response.
Sorry for any confusion.:blush:There are a lot of cluster and drag race motors in there however. From Left to Right:
-(3) 54-4G Sparkies for the King Viper III
-(2) 75-3G RP-4 for 7.5" Patriot drag race. Have one more of these made up for a 4" Drago (not shown)
-(1) 75-3(short)G White: 5.5" IQSY Tomahawk
-(1) 75-5(short)G White: 7.5" Hawk
-(3) 75-4(short)G Sparky: 7.5" Mother Lode
-(1) 75-8G: 7600 Sparky: 4" Competitor
Not all my rockets. Commercial motors not pictured. Throw in some I180 skids and D12's for that. Can't wait to see everybody next week!

Like the LOC clusters in there. Hopefully your KVIII flight is better than mine was
