Help buying my first Pitts

[flyjdair]

Hi all I'm new here to biplane and I am looking into buying for first plane. I am looking at a Pitts S-1S with an IO-360 200hp and constant speed prop. I am wondering how much of a downside the extra weight will make. I like the idea of the constant speed prop as it would save the engine dose the extra 20 up make up for the difference. Oh I live outside Denver, co and will be using it for competitions as well. Thanks in advance for any help that might be found. JD
