Posted for "Mark Ravinski" <mjrav@comcast.net>:

In last year's EAA Airventure Cup race the White Lightning aircraft had a
problem where his nose gear door remained open.
He lost about 15 mph from the previous years.  Typically, he's been beating
Henny and I by a couple of knots -- not with the door problem though.
