• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

This year's STOL competition, Valdez Alaska

Great clip...I defy anyone to look at 1:58 on, without guffawing - the spectators certainly enjoyed it!
 
There must be something wrong with me...

...not even one "guffaw" at all! A smile or two perhaps, but nothing else. :mixedsmi:
 
I have to try to get hold of J. Narcizo again. I tweaked his fs2004 Tundra Cub to handle more like those on the video. He liked the tweaks but didn't exactly give permission to share them. The only area I couldn't do much about was engine response. I wanted to set things up so the RPMs would respond nearly instantaneously to throttle changes, as they seem to in earlier vids. They sound like top fuel dragsters.
 
Did you know we have a little FREE scenery depicting the competition in Valdez? Available on our website here.
