Default ID this airplane

I was doing a little running today and saw this on the flight line. To my untrained eye it looks like a RV8, but I'm not totally sure. Anyhow it has a cool paint job, maybe I'll see the owner one day and be able to talk. Any thoughts?

My Google-Fu worked wonders this morning. On the off-chance I tried "Vans RV8 red yellow white" and this was one of the first ones that came up. Normally that never happens!

Anyway, It is an RV-8, N361WM. It was previously listed for sale, here and they have some detailed photos for you!

Wow, now I feel really lazy!

But in all honest I really wasn't sure if it was a RV or not (I'm new here). Next objective is to meet the owner.
