That straight line speed dash has been on my mind ever since I saw the movie "The World's Fastest Indian". This could really catch on because of the "in complete view of spectators" properties.

Still plenty of time to sign up for the Race at Courtland on June 13th. Check out www.tvacenter.com or www.sportairrace.org click on events.

The speed dash is the only one that I know of.

I clicked on www.tvacenter.com and saw the water tower marking the cross country air race finish line clearly in the website entry photo. I had trouble picking it out in the Google Earth image.
