  • Nellis F1 races

    Its great to see Wayne have such a good time with the T6 guys at Nellis.
    I hope he sees fit to write about the other class who participated in the demo races, the F1s. I know of two racers who trailered from northern california about 600 road miles or at least 12 hours of driving according to mapblast. These racers dedicated alot of their time and money to showcase their class to the public at Nellis. Lets give the F1 people the credit that they deserve too.

    I was asked to cover all the IF1 action from start to finish. It takes a lot of time to sort images and put together complete coverage, but I'll have that done very soon.
    Here's a couple for you:





    In case you haven't seen it here's a very complete IF1 gallery from Reno:

      And one out of SF Bay Area, flew down, with only a five gallon tank. Hopped like a bunny, all the way down

          Now that's a diehard pilot. How long a flight is that, not counting all the fuel stops?
