Let me work up some numbers I know 1 with no dual deploy will be $199.95 and
the dual deploy option is $229.95 but let me see what a group run can get it
down too

Hey Jack,
How much will a 5.5 Nike Smoke cost?

I'd prefer to give my dough to Jack on a 5.5. But if that is not possible,
maybe I'll do a 4" from Rocketry Warehouse. I have the 2.6 Madcow built,
assuming it survives till then. :)

My son, George, and I are planning on flying Nike Smokes as part of the June
ROCStock. He has a 2.6" FG version from Madcow already and wants a 5.5"
version from Polecat if Jack is going to fire that production up. I'm building
a 4" FG Madcow kit and may try to build others before June. We're excited for
a June Nike Smoke ROCStock theme and are awaiting the rules by which an
individual may garner the bragging rights that will be up for grabs.
Thanks,
Mike

OK, it's cool Jeff. Really, if you can get a bunch of people flying V-2's that
would be most excellent. Again, just trying to get people flying rockets and
having a good time. Also, ROC's 20th is cool. Maybe we can get Ron to jump
out of a cake or something? Hum, Veni would be better... Or, Kramer could
build a saucer cake? Anyway, the best way for a rocket club to celebrate an
anniversary is to fly lots of rockets.
A couple reasons why I've proposed Nike Smokes for June ROCstock:
1. Many people already have Nike Smokes of various sizes and probably it
wouldn't take much to get them to fly one. So, Smoke 'em if you got 'em!
2. It's a cool rocket and most rocketeers easily recognize the Nike Smoke.
3. There are cool variations on the Nike Smoke. My favorite is the Nike Cajun;
probably one of the best sounding rockets ever. Also, I heard there's a
Nike-Nike, but I haven't seen a photo of one.
4. There are lots of Nike Smoke kits of various sizes. I don't think Jack has
any of the 5.5's in stock and probably will not be building one Eddie
Gortatowsky Nike Smoke. But if several people want them, then maybe they will
go into production.
5. I would really like to see some Nike Smoke drag races and people trying to
push the limit.
Just to prove I'm not blowing smoke, I just bought a 5.5 Nike Smoke nose from
Jack, and I'm going to build a Nike Smoke with a 98 mm to attempt my L3 at
ROCstock.
So, are we just going to talk about it forever?

Now now. It was all in good fun!
I was only pointing out our long standing tradition of flying V2s in a scale
flight profile. Even tho unintended as that may be.
I want someone to give me an excuse to buy a Pole 5.5 inch Nike-Smoke... But
the pace I build at dicates it better be soon or June is not gonna happen for
me.

IMO the only thing ROC is known for over all these years is our consistent V2
scale flight profiles. ;)
Exactly which part of 'Sent from my iPad' is confusing?

The theme is 20th anniversary of Rocstock.
Only event I have heard of so far is the Nike Smoke Proliferation...

For anyone who might of missed it, this year is the 20th year of Rocstock
launches at Lucerne Dry lake. June Rocstock will be the 39th (XXXIX) event and
the 20th anniversary. November will be the 40th (XL) event.
We have some plans for events and themes to celebrate these anniversaries and
keep rocket flying going strong.
