Things are going well for Perky at The Brodak. 
I've heard it through the grape vine.
At least three new Perkys are under construction.

This year Mr. Brodak has allowed us a full three prizes and Perky and three prizes in Clown, plus the combined "closest to average" award.

I have reviewed the latest NASS Perky rules.  In general, these rules are in force.  Here area couple minor exceptions:

Rule 10 - Lines.  52'-6" minimum, .014" single strand.  I will allow .015" stranded for "sport engine" entries.  We can tell a Fox or an Enya from a power engine.


Rule 14 - Multiple entries.  A plane owner may use several models with NO additional entry fee.  But a plane owner is limited to ONE prize.

Rule 15 - Attempts.  There is no set number of attempts.  After everyone has had a chance to get three times, more than four attempts will be allowed, time permitting.

PERKY 10 entries

Al Ferrero      111.8
Peter Lott       106.5
Tom Shaffer   105.0
Bob Whitney    98.1
Dave Hallas   96.5
Paul Smith     95.7


CLOWN Speed Seven entries

Naomi Macklem   74.7
Samantha Hines  71.4
Peter Lott           71.1
Paul Smith         70.9
Charles Barnes   70.0
Tom Shaefer       69.1

This is the FINAL result of three days of competition.  Thirteen contestants and 17 event entries.  The number of attempts was limited only by access the paved circle and rain.

The top three working together on Tommy's entry.  Al Ferraro's 111.8 MPH Perky.

So, what engine was in it?
