Super Sport 400mph lap...

Pretty slow chatter here this year...
Surprising nobody mentioned Jon Sharp running a 412.5 mph lap on the unlimited course in Super Sport. That's impressive, and faster than last year.

Re: Super Sport 400mph lap...

Thunder ll suffered a ground loop on Monday from what I heard but luckily no damage. Not sure if relentless even registered. I thought I remember Kevin saying he wasn't bringing it but I could be totally wrong

So that means NXT qualified faster than Rare Bear and most of the Unlimited field on the same course...

I also think this makes the Nemesis the fastest civilian piston plane ever built.

412 does sound impressive.

What about Tsunami, and Miss Ashley II? They don't count as civilian piston powered aircraft?
