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.

Todays schedule:

http://reports.airrace.org/2014/2014.Schedule.Friday.pdf

Unlimiteds up in about 45 minutes.

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….

2nd & 3rd had themselves a race:

PM 8:00.99 @ 359.366
Sparky 9:01.223 @319.372
The Rebel 9:01.547 @ 319.181
Korean War Hero 9:17.105 @310.267

Wednesday report…

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
