We have arrived! The friendly volunteeers helped us tuck the plane into our tie down spot and Donna, ARC Volunteer Extraordinaire, greeted us at the door.  What a relief!

 

At the "Meet The Racers" dinner, the ladies and gents partied with the big band....and flew through more hangar talk.  All the racers were there to meet the last plane in after dark.  They fought through to the finish and performed a flawless landing to a welcoming crowd. 

 

 

Remember....MoeFO is the little fat red one...and Heather is the taller yellow one.  It's not good when MoeFO has a dangerous rolling pin in her hand; good thing Heather is running away to hide.  But that was SO yesterday!  The long time racers say it is a successful race under 2 conditions.

1.  Finish.

2.  Still be talking to your partner

 

YEAH!  We're winners!

 

And we think we're extra special because based on our unofficial calculations, we were the plane furthest west.  And we had no penalties. 

 

More to follow on scoring, results and most importantly the banquet!
