air racing has been around for a long time but its always good fun.

i saw some clips of that on TV and it has to be one of the most fucking insane sports i have ever seen. something like that could never happen in the US but it definately looks cool as hell to watch.

It is fun as hell to watch. The Pilots have balls of steel.

I bet he wins...

RED BALLS GIVE ME WINGS!!!

My dad did it back in the 70's - I remember going to see it when I was kid.

Fucking amazing.

He even built a plane in the back garden - then couldnt get it out! :) For a guy who build a plane in the garden he was fucking stupid sometimes!

Plane races are nothing new, but I've never seen them have to fly between those things so close to the ground. Crazy.

Never happen in the US?

Oct 8th in Cali....i'm so excided about it i squirted some

red bull kicks ass

Yep, saw a pretty cool looking TV commercial for this tonight. Next Saturday and just an hour or so away for me. Race course looks interesting, and they start from around the Golden Gate Bridge. http://www.redbullairrace.com/track_sf_en.html

Could make for some cool photo-ops. Anyone else planning to be there, hit me up on ICQ or email (see sig!). :)

hey texas, i might take you up on that. i've been thinking of going, it's only a short flight from Phoenix.

I'll let you know

Sugar free redbull.... there is no substitute. :thumbsup

With vodka, but combo eva! :pimp

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

A little behind the power curve there, aren't we? I head to Reno every year (just got back) for the International Air Races (Redbull course included). It's usually the second week of September. You can see what I mean at http://www.airrace.org .

Airliners cruise around 525mph. Check out the course speeds of the Unlimited Class, over the last 2-3 years. And this is by prop, people! All this occurs about 1-200 feet off the ground and right in front of you. Not a shitty seat in the crowd! I especially laugh when they drop off the general's car. You may have a "Blackbird" flyby, or a Stealth, you just never know. "RareBear" is my favorite!

Yes, World's Fastest Motor Sport. Definitely beats the shit outta NASCAR (sorry, guys, Nascar is my #2.).

Cool, and the Reb Bull site looks good :thumbsup

A Quick PS: For those of you who aren't aware of it, the Redbull Race system is an "AEROBATIC" race, not just a straight pylon course.
