    How did you get or come up with your user name?

    Mine is out of necessity :) When I got my FIRST atm card I needed something I wouldn't forget so I used the first 4 of my last name and initials of first and middle name. I have been given a nick of Stretch from playing softball because while I was pitching it seemed like everything was...

    Why do you love this hobby?

    My addiction started when I was in Okinawa, Japan on a 1 year tour with the Marine Corps. I had an RC truck that was fun, but not fast enough :) so I concocted a frame that I mounted an OS 40 glow engine on and found out that it was WAY to much power because I couldn't keep up with the freakin...

    south central Region IMAC competitions

    Any more news on the Little Rock contest in October? I was trying to make it to Sherman, TX, but work is in the way. Have to pay the bills.

    Booma RC Intellimatch servo matching

    Unfortunately mine didn't work out. BoomaRC's support is fantastic! We tried everything under the sun, but couldn't get the IM14 to work with my wings. I took quite a few videos during the process and did comparisons to the standard JR Matchboxes with a quad current meter and they finally told...

    Bring back the shame!

    The closest I came to a big slimmer before getting into GS was an Ultra Stick 60 on a pipe. Was fun, but just not the same once I got my 27% Extra 330SC with a 3MM TOC 53cc :) That plane was the beginning of the end of glow for me :)
