You ain't a-kiddin' there's some history bein' made w/those entries!

Re. the P-38s - Now then, would'nt it be totally-cool if all six just came down onto the Unlimited course in a tailchase f/a few demo laps (they'd almost have their own racing class like the good ole' days!)

"YEE-HAW!!!"

Or just "WTF!" Can't wait.

So who owns the FW-190? The only one that I know of that is flying in the U.S. is Rudy Frasca's. Is this one his or is there another one off the radar?

[QUOTE=flyingjibus;81442]WOW!

Anyone know if its the 2.0 or the 2.5 liter?

And does it still have the Turbo charger on it?[/QUOTE

Not sure on the displacement. I would assume it is still a turbo motor or it is going to be horribly slow. I'm curious to see how the cooling is packaged in that airframe. Now they need to paint it with a retro Colin McRea WRC paint scheme.

With Kerch no longer on the project? Stranger things have happened, but...next year, or the year after seems like a more likely target date.

Furious Will not be at Reno 2010. It will however be flying by Christmas this year to undergo testing for Reno 2011. The plane required a great deal more work then imagined. It is however getting very close to completion. Its on its gear and the hydraulic system is completed with the new Ray Anderson test celled 4360 engine is hanging on the new mount. Boiler system completed. Oil system completed. The plane is wired, avionics installed and a few details to complete. As everyone knows, the last 10% takes more time then the first 90%. The team decided that we wanted a fully completed plane with paint and all the trimmings. We did not want to show up to just test her on the course. We are coming next year to win!! Work will continue at full speed with intention of flying before end of year. The plane is going to be magnificent when its done. The Sanders team is doing an incredible job on this one as always. To say I am disappointed that the plane is not done for 2010 is an understatement. I have been waiting for this ride since 1964 so you can imagine how excited I am to put Furias on the course. We lost the first year dealing with all the crew personalities. Now that we have those issues resolved the plane is finally moving along rapidly. The plane is scheuled and will be at Reno 2011 God Willing and no 911's .

I always thought it was "Furias", or is that a typo ?
