Getting on to another tangent here. I was just checking the website stats for this month and as of 1/29/12 it's had 209 "unique" visitors (visits from different ip's) and 14254 hits.
Page popularity shows the main page as being in 1st (with it being the sites main index that makes sense). 2nd goes to the video index page, 3rd to the photo sections index page and 4th to the projects page.
Here's where I'd like to get some more of you to doing build threads since it seems to be pretty popular. I know there's more builders in our group than just Scott and myself. Whether you do it here, on RCG, or wherever. All I need is a link and the cover photo of your choice to get it hooked in. You might even already have some out there in the works or finished that could be hooked up as well.
Based on recent lakeside turnouts I think we can all pretty much agree that the advertising doesn't hurt.

Oh... rounding out the top 10 there's the events, club vids index, stats page (my fault since it's access is protected), the contact page, and the links page, in that order.

There's some talk of wanting to run this Sunday going on in our swap meet thread. Personally I don't plan to watch the superbowl, and the recovery boat battery is charged. I was hoping to get in some flying this weekend but wind speed and direction doesn't look too promising for that. It looks like about 10-12 from the SE for Sunday. http://www.usairnet.com/cgi-bin/laun...=KSRQ&state=FL

Found it. As soon as it reaches the point of having a good cover photo with it in the water I'll link it up.

Is anyone heading to the "pond" tomorrow with the resque boat? I heard a rumor.. I need to test out some props and stuff and the pond at akerman has plenty of room.

Bill you mentioned the wind tomorrow. What does 10-12 from the SE mean at Ackerman in nautical terms. SCA SCEC ?

I haven't seen Chris chime in so don't know if the rescue boat would be there or not. I haven't charged any batts myself since I don't like pulling them back down with the charger.

When it's blowing from the east it makes for fairly rough running at the left side (in reference to where you stand while driving) of the pond. Easier to blow over on the back straight but not bad coming down the front one except for the occasional submarine effect when you catch a bad hop off a wave. blowing from the south usually give you a smooth front straight but makes the back one choppy and disabled boats tend to blow away from you instead of back to shore. I wouldn't really call it a sca event but the smaller ones would probably be in of need rescue operations before the day is over.

Winds are looking more like 5/9 - direction is fair/good.

I have the rescue boat and motor, but not the battery, anyone else wanna play?

[megalops]

Hmm well if you guys head down there post it. The actual Superbowl kickoff isnt till 6:15p or 6:30p ish. I dont really care about the NFL this year I think I saw 2 playoff games this whole year. The Bucs have just worn me out over the years.
