Note that it was very turbulent that day. I'm surprised he flew at all.

just came back from SNF last night. Tracy got third place behind 2 Lancairs. Don't have the exact nrs. Hi did not reach 220.

Thanks for the report Richard.  At least it sounds like he made it through safely, and didn't break anything.  It's going to be hard to beat a Lancair with anything close to equal power.  >From what I've heard, the RV airfoil just isn't very efficient above about 220 mph.
