So, flew a heat race today next to a twin turbo Lancair IV. Well, interesting to say the least. This gives a great perspective of a turbo engine having to spool up to generate boost. Earl and I get a jump at the start due to the instant power. The big heavy IV has to wind up, but when it does it comes back with speed. I had to keep my lane so I am flying down the chute looking backwards at times! Taken from 2 angles, helmet and dash.
