A Tribute to Excellence: Stefan Rossi, Engine Builder of the Year

In an era where dedication to craft sometimes takes a back seat, it’s refreshing to witness individuals who embody the spirit of hard work and excellence. Today, I’m thrilled to shine the spotlight on our customer Stefan Rossi, owner and proprietor of ACE Racing Engines, the recently crowned “Engine Builder of the Year 2024” by the esteemed Engine Builder Magazine. This accolade is a testament to Stefan’s unwavering commitment to his craft, and we at Interfanatic couldn’t be more honored to get to work with Stef and co.

The Mark of Distinction

Stefan’s recognition as Engine Builder of the Year is not merely a title; it’s a reflection of the precision, innovation, and passion he brings to every engine he builds. In a field where perfection is the only acceptable standard, Stefan has consistently raised the bar, inspiring peers and earning the respect of the entire engine building community.

You don’t get reliably performing 2,500, 3,000, and 4,000+ drag racing engines without dedication to craft and unwavering precision. Simple as.

A New Site Takes Flight: The Fly-In Club Soars Again into Online Skies

A Warm Congratulations to the Fly-In Club Community

The Fly-In Club, a haven for collectors of the revered Flying Eagle cents and Indian cents, now spreads its wings in triumphant return to the vast expanse of the internet. Warmest congratulations to the entire Fly-In Club community on this occasion. We’re so pleased to be a part of it.

The Fly-In Club’s new website is a beacon, welcoming coin collectors from all over. Anybody interested in James Longacre’s designs will find friends at the Fly-In Club. Check out the site, and you’ll find insights, stories, and the occasional hidden gem. Whether you’re a seasoned collector seeking to enhance your collection or a curious newcomer looking to take the first step into the captivating world of coin collecting with Flying Eagle cents (FECs) and Indian cents (IHCs), this site is here to illuminate your journey.

We’ll take a moment now to honor the club’s past webmaster, David Noble who passed on a few years ago. We hope to honor his legacy with this new site.

The Spirit of Community

Much like the coins that bring you together, each with its unique history and allure, the Fly-In Club’s new website embodies the spirit of unity and shared fascination. It is a testament to the power of collective enthusiasm for these beautiful and interesting pieces of history, where every member contributes to the tapestry of the community. As you poke around, remember, this website represents a vibrant, thriving community, nurtured by a common passion for coins.

Members also get Longacre’s Ledger three times a year. It’s a phenomenal numismatic periodical that really digs into these series with all their intrigue and varieties.

And we’d like to offer our thanks to both Chris Pilliod and Rick Snow for their opportunity to take on this challenge with them. As big fans of coins with a few coin dealers as customers, it is with great joy that we manage the Fly-In Club website for the foreseeable future. We, too, are collectors, and we love our Flying Eagles and our Indian Cents. Such beautiful and historic designs that marked an important change in American numismatics. From the venerable 1856 Flying Eagle, some say the King of Small Cents, to the 1877 and 1909-S Indian Cents, if you want to know more you’d better talk to the people at the Fly-In Club!

The hope is to have the site updated regularly with fresh content from the membership. Whether it’s news about upcoming meetings or interesting new discoveries, we the new flyinclub.org will foster interest in these great coins.

To the Fly-In Club, its members, and all who have worked to bring this project to fruition, we extend our heartfelt congratulations. May your return to the online realm be met with joy, may your community flourish, and may the allure of the Flying Eagle and Indian Head cents continue to inspire generations of collectors to come.
