I have lurked on here for over a year and I saw Tracy's airplane
at OshKosh last summer. When I saw the butchery on his RV4 cowl
I thought it must be real hard to cool a Mazda. I am not sure I
want to get into all that so I am sitting on the fence. From a
business point of view Tracy is sending a negative message. No
telling how many gear boxes and fuel injection systems he would
have sold if the cowl was more conventional looking.

Paul,
An important point is being missed here. Those of us
that have followed the 13B development curve for the last
ten years or so and have watched the contribution Tracy
has made to that development know his RV-4 has been a test
mule for more experiments and changes than I remember. I
take my hat off to Tracy because if he had not been dragged
kicking into manufacturing his IGN/EFI and REDRIVES the
13B movement would still be basicly dead!

I think I can find someone to take over marketing, production and shipping,
pay Tracy royalties and let Tracy do the R&D. Would give him more time to
build his new RV8.

You would have no problem with that!!
I for one would be very interested. The low value of the Australian dollar
might even become a good thing...
(Hi Tracy. Like to become a full time Boffin???)
