Awesome stuff sledge

Akers was in the race though...here passed by Mike Loening...

Nicely done, sir! Hard to say which I like best. New position as Deputy Air Boss will keep me on the airport side of things now, instead of Home Pylon from 0730-1800 every day. Looking forward to it so perhaps we'll cross paths at some point. Safe travels....

Congrats young man. You are a natural for that position.

I'll hoist couple in your honor here real soon.

Reno 2011 Fureas

Sure hope she gets a second chance at being a Reno Air Racer.

Valley of Speed is making Eric Miss Merced shirts and Miss TNT shirts for this year, he liked the Furias ones (that I happen to love, and own ) that he wanted some more! Would love to see a Miss Merced/ Furias shirt one day...

Hearing them race past the home pylon. It's a sound unique to Reno and has made many a fan.

Count me in that group. My first Reno was '97, and when Strega and the Bear came around 8 and past the home pylon on that first lap....man, that sound!! I knew right then I was a fan for life.
