AAR Snapshot P-51 Race
« on: January 27, 2001, 04:02:00 PM »
Gents,

Rules were as follows:

1. No shooting allowed! (Killshooter was on)
2. Only 25% fuel
3. No extra tanks allowed
4. Pilots must refuel at the hotspot at 22
5. Pilots must land with gear down

The results of the P-51 race on Saturday at 3 PM EST is as follows.

1st Place mora  - 14:21:04
2nd Place TIE!! SwoopGB and Dingy -  14:21:32
3rd Place sunset -  14:22:00
4th Place cobra -  14:22:02

Swoop and mora were neck and neck. Mora was the first to land, but they both stopped about the same time.  I had a perfect spot in the tower to watch them both roll to a stop. Mora was the first to exit and swoop for some reason did not exit right away. That is why he and dingy had a tie for 2nd place.  
ts would have been in the running but the logs show he ditched so he may have been off the runway. Wilbus also took off his wingtip when trying to refuel at 22.

Afterwards we had a TBM race with killshooter off. That was a wild hair that I will not even get into except to say cobra won!   Below are just a few of the screen shots I took.

Thanks to all who participated, I hope you had fun!

LOL FYI, I was flying along with Swoop in his cockpit.  All I was doing was commenting on the race, Swoop has 2nd all to his self!

Hehehe, could never make it 1st since I got shot by our ack while taking off the 1st time (grrrr), by the Time I reupped, you were all D9 away !
Managed to catch up all right though  

Since most of us were NOE, does it make sense if I say we should do this again in LA5's or Typhoons ?
