A great job by all on the Voodoo crew, that’s 6 years in a row for Stevo now!

Strega out.
By: ZRX61 - 14th September 2014 at 06:15
Strega up & running just before 10pm… 🙂
By: Mike J - 14th September 2014 at 01:52
492 mph, not too shoddy.

Possible blown piston & then DQ’d for altitude. Tiger’s not having a good week, first he got beat by Sawbones & now this 😉
yeah, it was THAT close…

It sounds as though Tiger has already burned his barn down! 🙁

Voodoo just beat Strega in the Gold heat 3 race by .012 seconds… which is about “a spinner & 2 exhaust stacks”. Sundays final is going to be a barn burner 🙂

Strega starting at the back of the Gold race today, Thom in PM starting at the front of the Silver race.

That falcon 900LX demo is worth watching, yesterday he reversed it damn near the entire length of the runway & then put the right gear in the dirt as he hit the taxiway.

Nice race from Stevo. Good as it is to be able to watch the live stream on my iPad, it really isn’t quite the same as standing out in the desert, waist-deep in the sagebrush and dust, with the racers coming past at 500mph almost close enough to reach out and touch.

Strega looking and sounding good! And PM saving the machinery for the weekend.

Thom and PM, 1st place Unlimited Bronze, @ 359.366 mph…. hardly a fair race as last year he qualified for the Gold at 440mph (using the ferry engine) & this year he has another 1000HP….

PM 8:00.99 @ 359.366
Sparky 9:01.223 @319.372

Doesn’t appear to be.
In other news/rumors….. The Bear allegedly ran 514mph during a test hop this evening… & PM is awaiting new carb from Florida

Nice to see the videos.Have there been any major changes or change of attitudes and feelings towards it all since the heartbreaking disaster with Galloping ghost?

Tuesday report. Including vid of PM landing with feathered props
