see my last post Vance.

BTW is that six place in the back room going to have a Chevy? :-)
No wonder Rich wanted those old Performance Racing Industry magazines.
Forget the Chevy. Put a three rotor in it. :-)

No- the 6 place will have the usual Continental dinasaur. The reason we were looking
at the racing magazines is that we are on a crusade for the club to use some of the
surplus funds for tools related to aircraft safety - in this case scales. Most
people do not pursue wt and balance because of the bother and cost of getting the
FBO scales and weight guy set up. Those circle track guys sell great scales at about
$1300 - full digital - just as good as the FBO, and you have an extra (unless you
are building a 4 wheel Molt Taylor air car or something).

Gee! - We have a lot of people waiting to put a rotary in a KIS, but that guy over
in Santa Paula is not making tracks fast and deep enough to follow :-)   - Vance

Are you referring to me? :-) I am going as fast as I can given all the
other things on my plate :-) I have been working on tooling my mill better
so I can bore the new redrive/motor-mount plate and the P-port rotor housings
for Ken. I am also waiting for some 1-1/2 inch dia. 0.125 wall 4130 tubing for
the  motor mount rubber cup holders. I will need to cut those to length and 
send them out to Lorin for welding. I also need to get my new tig welder
working. You want to come over and help? :-)
