The race results for the 4 Star-40 race were as follows:

Chris Van Denburgh-Blm rc - - -14
Bernie Meegan-Washington rc - - 3
Dave Ludington-Bloomington  - - 3
Larry Roberts- Pekin rc club - - - 0
 
The high winds damaged Larry's new plane prior to race time and Dave Ludington suffered the only crash during the race.  Bernie had engine trouble.  Points given each heat are 4 for first, 3, 2, 1.  Cuts remove one point for first cut.  2nd cut disqualifies.
 
Kaitlin Miller was the little girl who pulled the winning ticket for the 50/50 drawing, and the winner was Tom Imhoff who took $68 home and our club got the same towards expenses for the event.
 
The heat and high winds may have scared a few pilots away, but those who came had a great and exciting time.
 
(hopefully you received my earlier email thanking all those who helped put on a successful event)
