Any news or photos of the folks attending PRS? Could not be there this year, so asking for a little help with the goings on.

Re: PRS news
I'm stuck in Miami and wondering how many new biplane drivers showed up and more specifically, how the new owner of #25 made out. Any info would be great. And yes Dial Tapper, as of last week anyway they still race biplanes at Reno.
Thanks

Re: PRS news
Sorry guys, I was a bit under the weather this year.. something about high blood pressure medicine I've been taking recently, living at sea level and running my old ass off at 5,000 feet didn't seem to agree with my system.. so I've been tardy getting anything up...
Some quick newsworthy subjects.. Rod Lewis is now officially a race pilot, as is Heather Penney!
As of Friday, Stu Dawson has had some "over the course" time in the Bear but, as of Friday, had not gotten down on the course due to issues...
Got some shots... some are even worthy of showing here but I'm stuck at RNO awaitng a 2 hour late SWA flight...
...
If I don't get kicked out of the, now closed, lounge I'm sititng in, backing up images from my NEXTO OTG to my laptop, I'll try to get some uploaded.. Expect full story ASAP...
I'll shoot one that I got ready up..Attached FilesWayne Sagar

Maybe your right Shorebird, found some footage from one of them. This one must be a real slug though, the way the little white biplane sucked it's light out going past it.

Re: PRS news
Wild cloud indeed! Any black triangular objects see headed toward Groom Lake just before?
In 1976 or 77 there was a huge distinct bird-shaped cloud over Stead during the races one afternoon. Took two slides of it. It more than filled my 35mm frame.Comment

Re: PRS news
Wayne, thank you for posting the PRS news.
The #51 name makes me lough, "La Pistolera".
Leo,
that rare cloud looks more like an UFO participating in the PRS.

Re: PRS news
With apologies to all for the down and dirty posting here. Haven't processed any of these and resized to 700x480 /- to get them to you but hope you enjoy as much as possible.
FYI, spoke with Carl (Race 35 in Bip's) for a bit. Seemed excited to be here and I thought he did very well (I was on Inner 1 and Home Pylon (couple shots from top of Home Pylon). Nice lines, consistent, good speed and seemed to do very well in formation.
All in all, great week!
Cheers,Attached FilesComment

Re: PRS news
With apologies (again!) to Karl (not Carl) and for the fat index finger hitting a "3" instead of a "2" for "Race 25"....sheeesh.
Anyway, it was a great four days. Hope to cross paths with folks in only 84 more!
Cheers,Comment
