FIRST - we have to give away a model.
THEN - we have to give away something to put it in.
NOW - we have to supply motors.
WHERE will it all end????

  Since we need to provide the Am's with motors, perhaps we should post pictures of those, too. To start the ball rolling, I have posted a picture of one of my LPP ProAm motors.

  Unlike John, I do not have a stash of 5/99 Tan II rubber but I see that Jim Richmond flew very well using using Pirelli rubber. I found some ("Pirelli" is molded right into the rubber strip) and made a motor for the ProAm event. Kang tells me that my LPP motors are not big enough so I made this one 27" x 1.75" with a weight of 140 grams. The LPP may be hard to trim with this motor but it should climb like a rocket! I hurt my wrist on my first wind but I should be okay for the ProAm event next weekend.
