The Viking VI was next on an E9-4 and also had a rough time of it. The nose cone separated and was lost, and the rocket hit the road on recovery, gashing a tube fin and finlet as well as bending the body tube. Three feet away from the soft grass. It's probably finished.
When I returned, I found Tony unwrapping his Der Bigger Red Max, an LOC Lil Nuke conversion that he did in 2001. I felt it only proper to fly it alongside my 2011 LOC Lil Ninja, especially since the Lil Nuke donor kit had been a Christmas gift from Tony.









I can't remember the specifics, but I'm pretty sure Tony's rocket flew on another of his stash of NCR motors.
