I got this bird at an auction online, and was looking to find out the race results. This bird, I was told races in the Mercedes classic. I have been to the site and can't seem to find anything.

Can anyone help me to determine the stats of the race?

They sure don't make it easy to find, but I did find the results from 2008.
See if these links work.

Well, I'm nosy, so I started looking........I can't find this birds number anywhere. I found an 8418, BC and I found Michael and Susan Smith, which are the ones who had these type bands, but that number isn't listed anywhere that I can find............

Thanks, that is also what I found. Nothing
Maybe I got scammed. I only paid $26.00 for the bird. I thought I got a good deal, scene the bird was a proven flier.

I will keep looking

Thanks again

I emailed CBS and this is what I got from them. LOL

I don't see any results for it either. Maybe it wasn't activated. It was originally entered in the Texas Gusher.

eyespyer,

Give it a shot, some of the best overall fliers and breeders I ever had, never won a race. Consistancy is what I look for, do the progeny consistantly do better that what I already have. It's the only way I know if a nic on the family worked! I don't always look at the winner but at the top 10-20%, and I manage to win my share of races.
