Please Spread the word about the AVC race

[Bob Axsom]

The neglected stepchild needs your support. Tell everyone you know that even may be interested to go to the www.airventurecup.com website and dig out the entry forms and significant information from the mass of obsolete stuff so they can apply by 5-31-08 and have the opportunity to participate.

I wrote the EAA to ask for some publicity and all I got was ... well see below.

The information at www.airventurecup.com has inaccuracies and the distribution is so limited it is outrageous. The deadline for entry is May 31, 2008. Can you please at least get some publicity out there.

Bob,

I for one appreciate your efforts to get the word out about the AVC. I did it a few years ago and had a good time - both during the race and all the other ancillary activities before and after the race. The mass arrival and primo parking by the tower at OSH was nice too.

Would do it again but am exhibiting this year.

Have a great race!
