Pylon Race 1
Sunday, March 15th was the date of the first Pylon Race for the 2009 season at Trentadue field. The weather was a little raw but the turnout of guys to participate was spectacular. Nineteen guys! On a cool, wet day with rain and breezy winds forecast. It was my first time to compete in the Pylon Races and it all turned out just great. I had one of the best experiences of all my R/C flying days. And what a great bunch of guys too. We hit the pylons a couple of times and even took one out for a while. It looks to me like the Pylon Races are destined to be one of WCF’s best and most popular events ever. All this with nice, silent electric airplanes. Hope I can convince you guys who haven’t tried it to give some serious consideration. Next race – Sunday, April 5th.
