For some strange reason I did not get the video back on this.
Perhaps it was too big for earthlink. Perhaps NSA did not like it :-)
Other people got it. Here it is again in low rez form.

Oh I just forgot to attach the video. Too excited :-) Here it is
again in medium rez.

Looking good!  Should be even more impressive with full boost.
Congrats to all involved.

It is like the first day at Chaparral we showed up at a can am race
with a wing in 1966 :-) That's me :-)

BTW Here is Teddy Mare copying my jack design. :-)

Paul Lamar

Several familiar faces in the photos!  Chuck Hall (in the blue
shirt) behind you and Don Gates to his right. I can't tell who's
under the cowboy hats but I suspect it is Karl on the left and Franz
partially hidden behind you.

Gary Knutson

I think your right except perhaps  for Don Gates. I don't think he
was there then. I could be wrong.


Paul Lamar

You're correct on that not being Gates.  Good shots of Randy, Troy and
Franz.
Thanks.
