At this point, would be best to make your changes at the track when you get there. I believe the scoring computer has been shipped as of today. So, no way to make those changes effectively.

I don't know why I wouldn't receive your email. I've checked my spam box and it's not there. You can PM me your change. I'm typicaly not as fast to respond to PM's. May take a few extra hours or try my email one last time [email protected]

Not a problem, Ruben. I e-mailed Fred and he squared things up for me. No clue as to why what happened - thus is the wonderful world of the inter-web... I was trying to get in my changes in a timely manner before the computer got shipped. I don't know what has to be done on your end now, I'll just varify when I get there as Dawn suggested. Thanks.

Questions??

1. Will the Reedy Stockstar be legal for this race?

2. As of today, they are still not available from Horizon or Great Planes Hobby Distributors.

3. Is there a deadline for when these motors must be available for purchase?

I would love to run this motor, however, I leave for the race in 8 days. We're all making preparations, and I would hate to see anyone spend their money on something, only to find it obsolete once they get to Omaha.

Again, I repeat, I WANT to run this motor. But we're getting a bit close to the race, aren't we?

I will not be legal for this race due to the quantity issues and resolving them by the deadline. But for those that are interested, large quantities of Stockstars are shipping this week.

Just saw this over on the Reedy thread...may have just answered my own question. Please confirm.

We actually have motors in stock (minus packaging), but not enough to fulfill the approval requirement.

Beat me to it, Rick. Thanks for the update.

I definitely plan on running this motor after the Nats.

Is the LRP 17.5 brushless available yet? I haven't seen any at the usual online shops.
