We are in the final stages of resolving the issues with the forums move to the new location. After talking with tech support, the only solution was to send him a copy of all the images. This will take time - but we know the fix SO it's only a matter of time now.
Thanks again for your patience,

A NEW UNLIMITED RENO AIR RACE TEAM IS BEING CONSTRUCTED!
Re: A NEW UNLIMITED RENO AIR RACE TEAM IS BEING CONSTRUCTED!
I emailed some that are missing too, so maybe it's just a long "short list".
I still like Redline, though I think I can do better, and it didn't make the list either.
Back to the drawing board

I would SO MUCH like to see an F-1 type canopy put on that bird. Kind of a bubble like what the original Signal Sea Fury/Miss Merced had. If you're gonna go 'racy', go all the way.
I say this in the nicest possible way:
"SEND MONEY BUDDY"!!!!!!!!!!!
We will be lucky just to get the finances together to get the airplane up to Reno this year!
Here is a list of some of the names submitted so far:
Well, I'll reply in the nicest possible way too. No. Sorry.
All of my money is currently wrapped up in my hydroplane racing endeavours. So believe me...I know all about racin' and finances.

GREAT!
Well send some pics of that flying boat, we'd love to see it!
Will.
Well, I think I posted some of these last summer already, but...
From one of our two victories this season: Chevrolet Cup @ Seafair on Lake Washington in Seattle--nothing like a win in front of a hometown crowd, on live television...in front of all your family, friends, ex-girlfriends, and old teachers who said you'd never amount to anything.

Re: A NEW UNLIMITED RENO AIR RACE TEAM IS BEING CONSTRUCTED!
You might want to stay away from paint schemes that are 'too' intricate. I know some guys in the hydro world have found out the hard way that what looks good from 10 feet away gets 'lost' and turns into mud at a distance.
But I say there are two ways to go...either the "limefire green" metallic with red and gold trim like Lancer Two used to have....or an alcohol-induced Miss Suzi-Q type 'mish-mash'.
