Great shot. Hope you enjoyed yourself. We had over 25000 people in attendance. We will repeat it next year. I hear that visitors enjoyed everything including the race between the SU-26 and the Nascar.

the race between the SU-26 and the Nascar.
So enquiring minds want to know .. who won ;)

The day before in practice, that Sukhoi-26 was able to go straight up 1500ft or so after a 2500ft run, so I'm guessing he was not far off 200MPH after 2500ft. Pretty good accelleration.

Sure looked like the Nascar, but I think Rick was giving him a bit of an advantage!
