This video is just evil! Could it get any further distance away for a FL pilot!?

Really great/evil video. Thanks for sharing:p
 
As a former motorcycle roadcourse racer.......totally sick! I would love to just do the school let alone race. Someday i think someday.
 
Well.....

I was really into the Video and then a total hack like Bob Mills shows up on screen and ruins it for me ;)

I'm gonna make a Sport Air race with my pokey little -9A sometime - just to hang out with guys having so much fun!! Way Cool!

At least you don't have Bob Mills just down the tarmac!:D

Hey, maybe I'll come race you one day at the back of the pack.

cheers,

(wonder if/when Bob will see this.....)
 
Here is another great HD video of what it's like to fly the course at Reno. This is courtesy of Greg Nelson in his F1 Rocket.

That's a great video! Greg is a superb pilot and a good friend! I was just behind him throughout that race, and got to watch the battle from about half a pylon back. Fun stuff!

Here's a video from PRS I posted a while back, for those who may not have seen it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zg4jkCqkb_8

Guess I'll have to get busy editing the race videos from September, eh! ;)

Nice job Greg!

Purty quickly I guess...well after getting back from TPA!

How 'bout 11/19 in Taylor, TX boys?!?! Last SARL race of the year. Great folks, great BBQ, great fun...and no snow Pete! And you guys won't be at the back of the pack!

He is in Tampa tonight. Wait till he sees this. Bet there is a Looooooooong reply.

Nice! Hey pot, this is kettle...W'Sup? :D

Cheers,
Bob
 
At least you guys dont have to deal with BOB MILLS daily as do. I never shoulda sold my Super Six:eek:. It ruined him!:D
 
Well Brother Bob (Rocketboy)...(and for those that don't know, he's a fraternity brother...one semester back..."always a pledge in my eyes" ;))...

I'd trade you for your F1 Rocket...if it was a little faster! :p

One thing is for certain...it ruined my savings account! :rolleyes: Care to make repairs on that for me? :D

Fun factor though...Priceless!

And quit shouting my name you guys...I keep thinking its my wife! :eek:

Cheers,
Bob
 
I wish you couls see some of the SARL race videos

The Reno race videos are good of course but I wish you could see some of Russell Sherwood's Video's in SARL races like the Texoma 100 this year with green background, features seen only once in a race, etc. As Bob Mills Says, the race at Taylor next month is a good opportunity to do it for real with some great people.

You guys are a terrible influence. Now I'm thinking how to build a purpose built Rocket build for this once the 7 is done! I don't even want to utter the idea to the wife. Must. Get. Better. Paying. Job.
