  • THE BEAR ESSENTIALS FOR WINNING GOLD!

    The basic ingredients required for winning the much-coveted Unlimited Class National Championship Gold Trophy are simple:

    1. A Super-Fast airplane w/gobs of 'reliable' horsepower under the hood, and squared-away supporting operating systems.

    2. An well-seasoned race pilot w/a fighter jock spirit & test pilot attitude, who knows the aircraft well.

    3. A veteran crew chief w/a championship-winning portfolio of engineering & leadership skills.

    4. A gung-ho, versatile & tireless maintenance crew, supported by a dedicated cadre of volunteers & fans.

    5. A totally-committed, & enthusiastic owner with a big heart & deep pockets, willing to finance a winning endeavour.

    6. Some degree of sponsorship.

    7. Last & not least - Plenty of- 'LUCK' - to prevail against overwhelming odds encountered in air racing aviation's extremes.

    The 2007 RARE BEAR Air Racing Team had all those essentials AND the right amount of good fortune to endure & succeed to Win the Big One at Reno (again!). Hats-off to them all & here's a few photos to help savor their victory into the New Year ......................BuckyD

    Even with spooge on it, that's still an A$$-Kickin' RACER! Hope Mr. Lewis and Mr. Cornell change their mind about the paint next year.
    I'm just glad she's back in the air and going fast! Thanks for posting the pictures Mr. Dawson!
