Enter it in the AirVenture Cup race this year (if there is one - always a question). You would be in a class that has very few entries and Bob Vassey would appreciate seeing another RV-3 to compete with. The race should be from Mitchell, South Dakota to Oshkosh (actually at a nearby location with recovery at Fond Du Lac and group arrival at Oshkosh). Bob is a veterinarian from Iowa I believe and every year he flies his red RV-3 (he previously built a scaled down P-51) in the big race.

Congrats Paul and Louise !! What a story...with a great ending.
Well, I'm a little miffed that neither of you called me before the first flight for some aviating advice.
Congrats, you two! Your project sure has given me pause to think about someday building an open cockpit runabout. Let's see... Smokey took me 13 years ... I might get it in before I turn 100.
Magic!!!! Well done you two.
I am fighting another war at the moment and it is going well.
