Wow, I was cruising on the first long trip averaging about 3Krpm, letting it edge up to 3200 downhill before climbing up the other side.

I'm hoping the electric fan will quiet down the racket a bit, the noise from the close-by engine and minimally insulated dog house in the Grumman makes it sound like all he# is breaking loose in there!

Next trip is next weekend, maybe I'll let it run up a bit further, maybe pass a car or 2...!
