OK, done !  17 ounces all in. 

The only work left is a set of .014" solid lines, with a heavier pull test than last year.....

Bring out your Perky's - Rouge Park - Detroit - be there Aloha.   This not a beauty contest and average does not win (unless there's only one entry). 

I got going pretty well --- competed in three contests, Detroit, Brodak, and The Nats.

It was the fastest in Detroit, but my only prop on takeoff and not a memorable speed.
Brodak had an 8-MPH lid on speed.  I did 83 and 78, so the 78 was my speed, fastest overall and next-closest to averge.

I got going 97.1 at The Nats.  My best ever.  However, this only got me 5th place, behind four others who topped 103, including Dave Wallack with his F2C diesel-powered Perky topping 108 MPH.
