Mostly unedited video of my first race in Reno 2016
This is a video of my first race. It is mostly unedited so those of you that want to see the environment can see it real time. That being said, it is approx. 13 minutes long. In the video I point out the pylons and some of the things going through my brain at the moment.
You will also see a nice race from my point of view. I was going at it with#26 and #38.

Axel, is there a rulebook online? I'm curious about the rules for overtaking and passing.

Dan,
Try this. http://airrace.org/racing/racer-application-info/
Short answer, they want you to only pass on the outside unless cleared by the other aircraft or on the inside only if someone goes wide.

Very cool! I just found myself leaning into the turns with you and yelling "Go! Go! Go!" at my computer screen! LOL.
