Default Red Bull Air Races 2008

I am having trouble finding out information on this seasons race schedule. Anyone out there know when the race schedule is formalized.

It isn't out on any of the Red Bull sites. Just says that there will be two in the US and the format has changed a bit.

Default Red Bull Air Race Schedule 2008

The years first race will be in the UAE in early April. The next two races will be in the US. San Diego May 3-4 and Detroit May 30-June 1. I believe these are the only two US race dates for the year. The full schedule will probably be released sometime after this week.

Rhonda,

Any chance you know the dates for the Perth, Australia end of year event? I'm guessing Nov but need to book flights etc.

Thanks,

Carl

This is quoted from latest news from RBAR site:

"It?s just one day until the race calendar and pilot line up for the 2008 Red Bull Air Race World Series is revealed. New cities, new country, new pilot and a new race format are just some of the exciting developments in the next chapter of the Red Bull Air Race.

The announcements will be made on Wednesday 6th February in the spectacular surroundings of Hangar-7 at Salzburg Airport in Austria with all pilots in attendance.
"

So I believe that latest tomorrow we know all the dates so hold your horses a while.
