LDRS Contest Results

Jul 29, 2003 11 Replies

Did anyone remember the results of the Contests at LDRS. I am specifically interested in the Bowling ball loft on K motors.



Thanks

Geoff Elder won again, imagine that :)

His new rocket to handle the heavier load came in at 1.5 lbs. Not sure what altitude he attained, but I spoke with him personally confirming his win. He also did his level 3 carbon bowling ball loft, but things didn't fare to well and the nosecone holding the bowling ball got hammered in a bit. He's a great person to meet...ever willing to talk shop on his creations and a riot to listen to when he's LCO :)

I wonder if Bowling Bal Loft competition *IS* the problem with congress?

I meant to say Mark Clark ran the contest

Gotta admit, that HillyBilly crowd is a lot of fun to be around! And they did a great job of making sure the kids were intimately involved in the building during From the Ground Up.
