I just got back from 4 very exciting days at the Reno air races.I got to see history made by both Mr. Skip Holm flying Dago Red and also Mr. John Penny flying Rare Bear as they both ran a number of laps in excess of 500 mph!This is a first.Fortunately no one augered in or got hurt.However I did see the Thunderbirds perform for 3 days with out a hitch,the last show only one day before the crash they just had.I also have some so-so digital photos of racing and some better ones of planes in the pits.Anyone care to see some? let me know.......Tim.
