Any contest for LDRS?

Phil Stein

I am just afraid some bozo is going to get the bright idea to put a hybrid ignition system hooked to the water and fry my ass.

Remember, you can only do that once! Dunking can last for weeks if demand warrants :)

And any monies raised from such a wacko deal goes to the legal fund.

Hey Phil, we could call it the Punk and Dunk tank..(;-)

Fred

Phil Ste> Maybe we could work it in with Jerry dunk tank.

Curtis Personally, I like the idea of this one and thanks for the offer of the prize! Two things, though........First, you would probably have to be the judge, as you do some pretty good work yourself and would recognize a good job. And secondly.......Ed Miller wouldn't be allowed to compete as he'd certainly win first prize:-)!

Rich Now this one I REALLY like! Let's see.........Big Bertha, Cobra, Shadow, Big Daddy, Hustler. Any limitations on to how may times up scale?

Lloyd

Jerry Sounds perfect for a Tuesday EX Launch:-)! Dunking for 5 days.......launch on the 6th. Covers all the bases:-).

Lloyd

perhaps if the check-in did a first cut elimination/qualification round, the judges decide the winner (they need to see all the rockets side by side IMO to judge well)

then also have a 'peoples choice' from the finalists, for a second award

just my $0.020000001

here's an idea ...

Jerry has to where spandex for the dunk tank

Ray will take pics and we'll get someone to print them on a inkjet iron-on transfer sheet, make teeshirts, have Jerry sign them, and auction them off with the proceeds going to fund a rockets-for-schools/scouts program

got a digital camera Ray?

whayada think?

my son got some nice pics at his Karate competition from someone wih a digital camera, a laptop with photshop, and a dye sublimation printer. Way cool to have at-the-action pics.

Phil Ste> Throw bowling balls at the dunk tank?

may I suggest a 2 liter Pepsi as an alternative. I can just see that milk souring on the field ... :(

the 2 liter bottle has a better profile for a payload, IMO

Are you kidding?! It's LDRS! You get bonus points for each multiple!

Or we could fund a rocketry class for Congresscritters.

Bob

Make it Mountain Dew. It'll be a "Flew the Dew" contest.

Lloyd:

I hate to agree with Mike ; but there were a few contests at LDRS. I thought the "How Low Can You Go" contest where Ky flew the outhouse was cool.

Just because its a contest ; doesn't mean it can't be cool.

Al

Hey! No worries, have paint gun...will travel. ;-)

Does that program use exclusively USR kits and motors DELIVERED to a non-NFPA state?

There are PLENTY of USR motors in DC already. Let's rock!

Let's roll!

Phil Stein

Yeah - that's all Pepsi is good for but, I might be willing to drink it if they came up with some sponsorship $$$.
