I mined some RV and Rocket information out of the past two years of race results (www.sportairrace.org) and pasted them here. It comes out a little awkward but I think you can follow it. In the RV classes Red = 320 cu. in. and Blue = 360 cu. in. Dick Martin has a 390 and that is why he does not fly in one of the RV classes. There are some class options so one Rocket is in the Unlimited class. I find this stuff interesting and thought some others might like to see it as well.

Sort by speed only

I thought you might be interested in a sort by speed only, regardless of class to see how the various RVs and Rockets stack up against each other in the past two years of actual competition. Notice John Huft and Jon Ross in their "360" powered RV-8s.

comparisons

Bob,
Your break down was interesting to look at. I know what my RV-4 will do as far as max true airspeed within one or two knots at its fastest altitude. When you look at the spread in the speeds of similar airplanes with similar engines ( displacement anyway) it is remarkable I think.

Your data makes me think a race in the staight line speed dash format ( ie. 1mile over a runway) would really be interesting. It would reduce the effects of playing the wind and pilot skill on the race course. I like those factors in xc racing but it would be interesting to see how the airplanes perform without those factors.

I would like to know which airplanes have souped up engines. The desparity in the speeds of the Rockets which raced over the same course (ie Memphis) really puzzles me.

Chris Murphy RACE34
 
Bob,

I see you are the fastest RV-6 out there. Congratulations are in order.

I have a question regarding the racing speeds you achieve and VNE. I believe the VNE for the -6 is 210 mph. Do you have to do anything special to test for flutter at the higher speeds? Just curious.
 
VNE not a problem yet

Usually I am right at the published VNE (sometimes the red line gets a little fat) but I will never knowingly test for in-flight flutter. With all of the mods I have made, exceeding the recommended VNE is an issue that I have to think about. Thus far it isn't a concern but if someday I can come up with a more powerful engine and a better prop I will be able to exceed it easily. The VNE is based on Indicated Airspeed and sometimes like this year's AirVenture Cup race my altitude was unusually high (9,500 ft, normally it is more like 500-1,000 ft AGL) and the indicated airspeed did not exceed the VNE. The race results are calculated based on straight line course length and elapsed time so as with this years Airventure Cup race from Mitchell, South Dakota to Oshkosh, wind can give some great looking speeds (ground speed) without threatening the airplane.

Bob Axsom
 
Vne

Hello Deven,

At lower altitudes the indicated and true airspeed are pretty close but at higher altitudes they get farther apart. Unless your RV is turbo charged chances are you will have a hard time exceeding Vne at the higher altitudes in LEVEL FLIGHT because of the loss of horse power. I ran the A_V Cup this year at a speed of 214mph.(186kts+/-) Some of the race I was above 11,000 feet with a big tail wind but my True Airspeed was down to 150 kts or so with a ground speed of over 209 kts. (I have a photo of the GPS ) Last year I ran the race below 2000msl with indicated speeds around 180 kts.

I am careful not to exceed the Vne in True Airspeed at higher altitudes and like Bob I don't want to be testing for flutter.

On these round robin races playing the wind is part of the challenge. One has to know how their plane performs at various density altitudes to know when to go up or down to get the best wind vs. max TAS. These races can be won or lost by 1 knot. After each race you will hear some racers lamenting their altitude decisions.... I know I have. If you are considering a race I highly recommend it. Its fun and its a great group of folks.

I am thinking you meant to say your IAS was down to 150 kts. If your TAS was that low you wouldn't be competitive at all.
 
What's really amazing about these numbers is that Huft managed sometimes to out-o some of the rocket guys....what's going on there?!!? :)

Cheers,
Stein
 
True Airspeed

I am thinking you meant to say your IAS was down to 150 kts. If your TAS was that low you wouldn't be competitive at all.

Larry,
My true airspeed was about 155 kts I think the indicated was under 125kts that was between 11 and 11500msl. I think my full throttle rpm was under 2500 but I can't recall for sure. One of the points I was making is that the higher you go the bigger the split between indicated and TAS. ie. The jet I fly at work indicates about 230kts at Fl 370 but is actually flying at about 470 kts. I know this is flight school 101 but I had a tail wind of over 50 kts for part of the race. The fast planes( Lancairs and Relentless ) did over 300 kts in the race I think some of those guys went up to 17.5. I had to decide at what altitude did the loss of horsepower and TAS out weigh the gain in tailwind. I could tell exactly when that wind kicked in by the turb and direction. We had some weather issues on the race course and that forced most of us off of our profiles. Normally I would not go that high. I also had to reduce power for a time due to a rain shower( wood prop). Again, do I slow down and stay on course or keep the speed up and fly more miles around the rain?
Chris Murphy RACE34

The other planes in my class (RV-RED) have the same engine displacement so in theory if they were at my altitude our speeds would be similar.. in other words that 155kts TAS was competitive enough to win the race.

I apologize Christopher. I didn't realize you were that high and I see you didn't misspeak.

It does make me think maybe I should give this deal a shot though. Those figures just didn't seem right to me.

Panel1.jpg

The 173 knots TAS at 14,500 is a bit high because of temperature probe location, but it isn't that far off. This is westbound over Nevada in the summer in a fixed pitch O-360 RV-6. IAS is 132 knots.

Panel2.jpg

Later on the same trip 164 knots TAS at 17,500, 120 knots IAS, 206 knot GS.

GJT.jpg

You guys that actually race are putting it out there and I know I am just talking, but I have always been amazed that my airplane, that was built by someone who is sure not a craftsman, and that has some rigging issues, can easily exceed the Vans numbers. Oh, and these days (expensive fuel), I rarely fly that fast. I was younger and drunk with Van's juice and let it all hang out for those first couple of years.
 
John's Plane is special

From a distance John Huft's #18 just looks like another red RV-8 but it is a fine tuned gem in every parameter. He makes no compromise doing the work necessary to make it fast. He has had three props on it to get the very best which currently is the older blended airfoil Hartzell. Everything that can be faired or closed is faired or closed. The engine is a high performance special IO-360, the induction intake system is his own design, the cooling air system is his own design. John is very open with his airplane's information at his website. I just got up out of my chair and pulled a copy of a document I printed from http://www.lazy8.net/speedmods.htm so www.lazy8.net is where to look if you are interested in his modifications and testing. It is well written, easy reading with no nonsense thrown in.

If you want to see his bird at its absolute best come to Taylor on the morning of 11-22-08. If you want to see how the races work but you are not ready to enter yet, go to http://www.sportairrace.org, click on Calendar of events, then click on Rocket 100 Air Race, then click on Rocket 100 Race Information. There you will find actual photographs of the race turn points. Click on race rules and race narrative to get that information. If you get out your sectional, plot the course, check the surface levels, measure the latitude and longitude of ski lake, the Hutto water tower and the race turn points you can get a feel for what the racers will be doing. Enter the course in your GPS and make up turn check lists giving the turn altitude requirement, the inbound call frequency, the outbound heading and altitude for your knee board ... just for fun. Maybe we will see you there.

Larry,

My -4 is 160 hp and I am not that familiar with how the other models perform but 164kts TAS at 17.5 looks impressive to me. When I get above 10k I start to lose performance.

Ditto what Bob says about John Huft's RV-8.

Chris Murphy #34
 
Bummer there is no less than 320 class

I wonder if I cleaned up the flap hinges, tail wheel, added a plenum, and a few other mods that I think of every time I walk around my -9, how fast it could really go.

Bob, do you want to come out East this winter and work on another plane? ;)
 
I would like to know which airplanes have souped up engines. The desparity in the speeds of the Rockets which raced over the same course (ie Memphis) really puzzles me.

Chris Murphy RACE34

In my mind the difference between the rockets has a lot to do with props. Wayne Hadath has a three blade BA Hartzell prop, a stock engine and magnetos. I used to have a three blade MT and did ok with it but last summer before the AirVenture cup race I changed to a two blade BA Hartzell and picked up 8 knots at the top end. I have 10 to one pistons, and one lightspeed ignition. The other rockets that we race against are usually flying with MT props. Aircraft weight is also a consideration as Wayne and I have rockets that are lighter than the average. Guys like John Huft and Bob Axom are motivators and their success really makes me sit down and look at what I am doing. As well as the change in the prop I have done a lot of cleaning up around the airplane. These races are not just about the equipment but the pilot choices you make the day of the race. I chose to go high at AirVenture and it paid a big bonus. In Memphis, although I won my class, I flew too high on the second leg and it cost me two or three knots. My plane is coming back into the shop this winter for another round of upgrades. Hopefully some of them will work!
 
prop performance at higher alt.

I forgot to mention that my Craig Catto prop was optimized for max rpm and TAS at 2000msl. That same prop really loses its bite at higher altitudes. At some point in the future I would like him to make a prop for me that runs at the higher altitudes. Thats where my metal FP Sensenich really worked well.
 
Personal Best over the past two years

I took the excel fil I made up of all the racers in all SARL scantioned races for the past two years and sorted it by pilot. Then I eliminated all but their best speed in each airplane and sorted again by speed. This is the result and you can look at all of the airplane types and see how they compared with the RVs and Rockets.
