The gauntlet has been thrown down for Airfest 28

[firemanup]

That’s right, father (me) has challenged son (iamtannorv) to a drag race.

Blackhawk 54 kits, flyers choice as to motor.

Modified scoring. One point for fastest speed. One point for highest altitude. One point closest to the pad.

Place your bets, place your bets!

Loser is buying winner a motor, K impulse.

Builds and general trash talk to follow in this thread.

Do we have a bookie to track the bets? Who is making the odds?

I can do that. I count real good using Excel, and I know how to hurt people.

Ah, Quatloos. The original cryptocurrency!

Do they need to be built stock, or can you modify?

We decided to go stock.

Yeh I think I messed it up, letting life get in the way a bit.

Moved into a new house in April, of course with a new puppy, then starting a major remodel project that’s just now wrapping up. I haven’t even purchased the kit yet.

I’ve only launched one rocket all year but will be making Airfest at least with an N and several M flights.

Gonna have to push this particular challenge to next year, Argonia Cup or Airfest have to see what Tannor thinks.
