Ok....tell me you guys saw it...on the Science Channel

It's on my DVR!!!! Man that was an awesome show. This one rocket went ~1400 MPH! I think it was a 54mm min dia. He got the first place that event. It's repeating if you want to catch it again. It's of LDRS 2003. One team got the record for the most rockets launched at once. I think it was 283 or so. All on A motors.

Yep, that was a Shadow Composites Shock Value flown by Dan Stroud. Amazing rocket - all CF.

I got it on my DVR...but how to get it off there? Anyone ever messed with a motorola cable dvr? It's got usb and firewire ports and all on it.

Hey smoke-eater: I'll DVR it and see if I can get it transfered to VHS for you.

Where in SW OH are you exactly? (PM if necessary)

fyrfytr310 · Sep 3, 2006

Hamilton, just north of Cincy. Is New Lebanon near the Lebanon I would know?

DaveCombs · Sep 3, 2006

Nope, further north and straight west from Dayton. But one of my best friends lives in Lebanon (a Springboro expatriat).

A coworker is in a club that launches at VOA park down your way. Been there?

fyrfytr310 · Sep 3, 2006

I am indeed a quarker that flies at VOA. I'll PM you.
