Jerry,
I'll try one, if you have one to ship, for the spitfire. Do you recommend
the spring upgrade??? I guess the question is, Do you have one in stock as
you would recommend it???
If so, second question is can you take a credit card? Let me know & I'll
shoot the number to you along with shipping details. I have a race in
another 2 weeks, & would like to try it...
Thanks in advance,
Tom
