Todd,
 
I normally don't butt into other people's business but I can't stand it any longer. See if I've got this right.
 
You're flying an experimental aircraft. You've got a very experimental engine. You're still a student pilot. A thunderstorm wandered over your airfield, you only had an hour of fuel left on board, and you just flew through a hailstorm.
 
Can you just watch your risk level, buddy?
 
The rest of us are getting wonderful data from you and don't want it to end.
 
We also know that if you end up as a lawn dart, everyone is going to blame that Mazda engine.
 
Let's be careful out there.
