  • New racer for Reno...?

    Is this the latest top-secret racer to emerge the winner this year?

        Sadly, I don't think a Spit has what it takes to go 480+ at Reno, especially with those radiator scoops. But I'd love to see one try. I believe that is a Spitfire Mk XIVe.

            I'd like to see a Spitfire race even if it was going 380.

                Anybody know if the two Spitfire's from PRS will be racing this year? I don't think I have seen a Spifire in the air since the Phoenix races.
                My heart starts beating again in September.

                  There were Spitfire's at PRS... man, I must have somehow missed them.

                  Actually there were 2 P-40's (Warhawks) at PRS, maybe you've got the two confused?

                    Think there is some confusion there as i did not see any Spitfires either at PRS. I can see the mistake through, when i first saw the picture i was going to guess P-40, so there ya go
