I don't usually post links but some of these pictures are really cool. Me-109E in Auto Union (Audi) silver anyone? NASCAR P-47? too bad Reno doesn't have more planes like this!
The Black "John Player Special" Spitfire wins my vote!!! Enjoy!!

Not bad. Kind of wish they stuck with aircraft that were more likely to attend and participate at Reno.

P-51s
Bearcats
Corsairs
SeaFurys
P-38?
Yaks
Etc.

I'm surprised Red Bull hasn't jumped on and raced a plane at Reno. Thoughts?

I notice a lot of these "racers" are fully armed - that would make the races a bit more exciting... :shock: :minigun:

I might take some heat for this, but....

...the folks with the Voodoo racing team could learn a few things from this. :)

Thanks for posting.
