  • Voodoo retiring? Seems like it...

    Hey all,
    Lots of chatter on Facebook that Voodoo may retire from racing after this week, and now that seems confirmed by the t-shirts available from them:

    Any word from HangarTalkers on the ground?

    Not surprised.

    Unlimited Air Racing, as a whole... seems to be on it's "Farewell Tour".

      I hope not. I see more one-offs in the future like Tsunami and the Pond Racer.

        Well Tsunami, for one, is coming back! I'm hoping the Bear didn't start a trend.

          While it may be the last time... certainly isn't the first time for Voodoo

          Anybody have the old pics of the sign "family sacrifice ends" from maybe 10 years ago?

          EDIT: Found it...

              The rumor that I'm reading says Voodoo is going to the NASM.

                Jason S. said they didn't want it I thought...? He's a reliable source if any

                    Be a shame to put it on display somewhere without restoring the paint to its former glory!

                      Not uncommon to give ac to NASM,take the tax write off,and possibly get something out of their inventory that they aren't going to use.
                      Greenmayer did it. Don't remember what he took.

                          Is there going to be a way to but those T-shirts after the race for the ones like me on the road and unable to be there?

                            The October issue of the big British warbird magazine Aeroplane Monthly has a news article about the record and says "it is said" Voodoo will retire after Sunday and is rumoured to go to the NASM.
