[NSRCA-discussion] TOC 1988

[tocdon at netscape.net]

I got an email from a friend about the "TOC 1988" with an old video link showing the flight line.   Wow, the pilot board in the video showed some names that are still quite familar around the F3A circuit.   What really amazes me about the TOC is that the event went on for 28 years covering FOUR DECADES and there is a total of only SIX people in the world that can call themselves TOC Champions..  Truly the hall of fame: 

Hanno Prettner
Steve Rojecki
Steve Stricker
Chip Hyde
Quique Somenzini
Christophe Paysant Le Roux


Each August, back from the NATS, rested up,  I get the feeling.  Those that competed know that feeiing. The memories come back - thinking about the momentous level of effort it took to prepare for such an event. The lake beds. The glitz.  I feel privileged to have been given the opportunity to particpate in two.

Best regards,
Don
