Is anybody flying this event?

You say that like the info is right there. Just did a search, couldn't find it. You say your tank would do 70 laps? Is that with a .25 tuning in the low 15's, how big was it? Sounds like maybe 3 oz. I'm trying to minimize the weight on the nose.

Ok, just measured two of my tanks. One I was racing with last year was 67cc not sure on laps but never had a problem. The new tank is 52cc and I was getting 38 laps in practice with a stock OS25xz but I think the engine was a little rich because it was turning in the high 15's.

If your talking Super Slow Rat rather than Slow Rat Bill Bishop has the tank issued covered in his post :"New SSR Nearing Completion". I constructed a 2 oz version of the tank he shows in the post and it works great. I get around 48 laps with an FP-25 in my SSR but venturi is stock. Still plenty of endurance for a 100 lap, 2 pitstop race. 

Wow, Pete. It takes you 2oz to go 48 laps? It should take about 2 cubic inches, or a bit over an ounce, for a SSR. But if you need two ounces, you need two ounces. Who am I to argue?
