Report from the team by Dan Peters: We were on track to accomplish our goal of breaking 200 mph lap speeds, but our newly overhauled engine must have spun the glue right out of the race prop! Our race prop is toast, so well have to throttle back for our sport flying prop. The new wheels and pants dont fit, the new canopy doesnt fit, but the pilot fits a little easier in the cramped Cassutt after a 20 lbs weight reduction program.
