Ready To Rumble? Who's Gonna Do What At Reno 2003?!
Wayne, I just read your article regarding Ken Dwelle's "new" T-6. Sounds like Dwelle Sr. isn't giving the plane as much credit as it probably deserves!! Trying to throw off some of the other T-6 competitors perhaps?!?!?! Great pics too!! You certainly satisfied my request for info on this racer.
On a side note, it really is a shame that the 2 of Hearts team is having such problems. I sincerely hope they can get the plane race-worthy within the next couple of weeks.

Now you guys didn't mention this! Whaaaa happened?
The airplane sounded SOOOOOOO good at PRS, I was figuring you for some stiff competition this time round...
Ouchie!

Wayne, when you get scooped your not SUPPOSED to broadcast it.
This year was starting out as a real exciting class act. But we have lost racers, Planes and friends in just weeks and have watched miracals in the pits. Now all the contriversial bull, RARA and everybody desirves a slap on the hand, This is supposed to be fun and challanging.
Mary and Sean get to work on them Planes, It won't be the same with out you.
Clay, I have so many of those itty bitty plane pictures my wife trys to steal my camera now. You can rent them big things as well. the wife won't let me buy a lens "for one event, NO", But I go to the Drags and ....." "NO".
Is it Miller Time yet! Damn politicos, cause a man to drink and it's only 10 AM.

Here are my predictions for Qualifying Times - Unlimiteds.
It's just for fun, not meant to offend anyone. I'm sure there will be some that are waaaaay off, but, if so, I'll be pleased to see it for a few of these racers - for the better, of course.
I saw Wayne's "Out on a Limb" (a few years ago??, I think it was Wayne, anyway) and thought it was cool. I look forward to seeing the list on AAFO more than any other news, or close to it. Now I do my own. I took the list from airrace.org for the Unlimited entries for 2003.
I'd love to see anyone else's predictions.

The airplane has shown speeds in the past that could get them up there fairly well... especially with the new crew massaging her..ah.. I mean.. "Paintin' ground equipment"...

The last report I had on Furias is that they removed the wings and cleaned them up a little. Thats all I can say for now.
