    Re: Record attempt news ??

    Just checked the weather at Challis ID, currently 70 degrees, clear, calm winds, forecast to a high of 92 degrees, sound like good weather for the attempt. Go get em Steveo

                  I tried that. My Facebook Kung Fu is non existent and I see no option for a live feed.

                      It's a tightrope though! If I'm not watching and someone really good signs up and does not see their initial posts, they might say screwit and leave!! So again, always looking for good LEVEL HEADED moderators!!

                              Just wanted to ask a question. There has been a lot of talk about Voodoo racing at Reno if the engine is still in good enough shape after the record attempt..or at least that is how I am understanding it. I don't want to get flamed for this, but I seem to have read that when the Red Baron crashed at Reno, it was using the same engine that it used to set the record. Do I remember it wrong?

                                It definitely could be, but remember that engines fail at Reno all the time, mayday and land safely. RB crashed because the contra-rotating props caused too much drag to make the runway... Much different.
