    it appears he elected to land gear up this time. One thing for certain - he can plow a really straight furrow ...
    glad he walked away.

      The headline was a heart stopper until I read the post.

      Glad he walked away.

      x 2 on plowing a straight line.

      Hope they can save Relentless, if not to fly at least for museum display.

        Ouch! Really a shame, Kevin has had some luck with that airplane! I first met him year's ago at Arlington, just a super nice guy who brings a lot to the sport. Glad he's OK, airplanes can be fixed... Looks like he really greased it.. Remembering his radio comment when he lost the prop a few years back, he's pretty calm under pressure!

        Good Luck Kevin!

          Amen to that one Wayne, Airplanes are fixable, people, not so much. A major shame for Kevin that airplane does not like him much

                Terrible news but great job putting her down Kevin.

                  Apparently the airframes okay, so he just needs new engine and prop!

                        Utmost respect for his ability to so quickly grasp when things go wrong that gravity is a constant and making the best of it.
                        I bet there are easier ways to get some good southern cooking though.

                          First of all it is good to read that Kevin is ok

                          Is there any new information about the condition of Relentless? Will it be at Reno or is it repairable at all?

                          Thank´s a lot,
                          Franz

                            Would also be curious to know if Kevin was able to establish sponsorship for his race-prepped NXT?
