Gary will be racing on Saturday morning in the Bronze race at 0825 Reno time, and in the Silver Final on Sunday morning at 0800 according to the schedule on the Reno site.

As I said on another thread, our thoughts and prayers are with all the pilots, families, and friends of those involved in the events of the past few days and months. Godspeed.

Gary and all the competitors and airshow participants, fly safe and race hard--we'll all be thinking of you this weekend!

Scott and Ellen

Good morning all,

Just talked to Gary, all went well during the Silver Final (except that the little racer isn't blazingly fast--she's almost 40 years old after all!). He will have an interesting postscript on today's race to tell when he gets back on WIX I'm thinking.

Looks to me like the old airplane and the big guy did pretty well!

Congrats Gary

He told us troubleshooting was in progress this afternoon. (That may be the "interesting postscript" from a couple of posts ago :wink: )
