Nitro Nats 2018 Rollout

[Terry Keeley]

About 2 pm yesterday my little Kestral unit said 33.9C (93F) - 129 ggp water - 92% (2850').

It's not that hot (yet) but the humidity is a killer!

 

[Kevin Roach]

Terry,

Is that 129 grains of water per pound?

Thanks,

Kevin

Terry,

The weatherman says only 91-degrees today, with 50% humidity.

What did the weather station measure today? I heard it was still very

hot. The Kestral is a very nice unit, I use mine for the daily weather.

I Hope You Are All Having A Great Day Racing?

Thanks For The Report,

Mark Sholund

What a great event, thanks to all who made it possible! The shootout format definitely makes the racing hot & heavy, great fun.

Speaking of hot, I saw 36.6C (98F) and 148 gpp of water today around 2pm. The heat was tough on everyone including the equipment!

Congrats to Charles Dukes on winning the Presidents Cup.

The racers also picked Brad Maglinger to receive the LeFeber Award. Very well deserved Brad.

Congrats to all the new National Champions. To win in the Shootout format is not easy. You beat the best guys running.

And thanks to all that made it happen. A years worth of work paid off.

Brad LeFeber Award, and Charles on the President's Cup Award, great job racing.

Hopefully I won't be so busy next year in the propeller shop so I can go to a few more

races with my friend John Beardslee. I would also like to thank Ron Byrd for keeping

us posted on the scoring results of the event. It is nice to follow the videos on Facebook

We had a GREAT TIME despite the HEAT.

Without people willing to put on races we have NO HOBBY OR SPORT!!!!

Thanks again for putting on the event. DOC

What has been said x2, the Wallster had an incredibly fun time at the Nats, coaching a couple of my good buddies and seeing so many friends Ive made over the last 19 years of racing, and meeting new ones. Huge kuddos to Mike and Brad, along with everyone behind the scenes, sponsors, and racers whom all I consider as my friends. Thanks everyone!

Thanks to Mikey and ,Brad,great event. Thank to all the workers who somehow dealt with the heat all week.It was nasty.

 

[Ralph Almirola]

This was no easy feat to put on or run and these men and women worked there butts off during some intense heat on and off the water. Thank you !!! Congrats to all the winners it was well deserved considering the competition and the heat.
