More Labor Day Fun on Breezy Hill

Philly Fliers had our annual picnic. The threat of rain was with us and a occasional drizzle here and there but all in all a good time. We had a timed speed event for .35 sized engines with a baffle piston. 7 laps were timed upright and 7 inverted. When ready for the clock, you raised your hand and timing began. After the upright timing, you raised your hand to signal inverted flights and timing once again started. My son and I took a 3rd place using a Combat Streak and Fox .35. The 2nd place winner was using a ABC Merco.35 which was obliterated after a burn down run. I should've taken a picture of the head afterwards, totally black and no compression left. Pretty stupid thing to do but it wasn't mine. First place was had by no other than "Philly Skip" and his Ares. This made absolutely no sense as this is a big stunter and it was sporting a OS .35 MAX-S. It was incredibly fast.
