Default Here's a future thought

Enter it in the AirVenture Cup race this year (if there is one - always a question). You would be in a class that has very few entries and Bob Vassey would appreciate seeing another RV-3 to compete with. The race should be from Mitchell, South Dakota to Oshkosh (actually at a nearby location with recovery at Fond Du Lac and group arrival at Oshkosh). Bob is a veterinarian from Iowa I believe and every year he flies his red RV-3 (he previously built a scaled down P-51) in the big race.

I wouldn't be surprised if Paul catches the racing bug, but probably not this year. We'll be very occupied with the RV-1 events. I'm sure Junior will be at Oshkosh but not racing.
