Reno - Racing

Postby specter177 » Thu Sep 24, 2009 10:38 am

Some racing shots. Unfortunately, not many of my shots turned out the way I wanted, so these are the only ones I thought worthy of posting.

"Argonaut" leading "Lady Jo."

The Gold Racers coming down the chute.
L to R: "Strega," "Voodoo," "Rare Bear," "Ridge Runner III," and "Dreadnought."

"Fury"

"Strega"

"Strega" ended up winning at a speed of 491.822 mph.

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.
