National Championship Reno Air Races 2005
sweet ridge runner We had a great time at the Reno Air Races this past September.

We were fortunate enough to be associated with Dan Martin's Ridge Runner, the fastest "stock" mustang. Somehow they allowed us to install a flying Lost Squadron billboard with the sticker spanning nearly from wingtip to wingtip.

Our friends from the Planes of Fame had a good view of our high speed billboard from the Lady Jo / Pace plane pit. Luckily most of the sticker passed the 400+ kt speed test. With each run, we trimmed more and more off the sticker until only the most tenacious portions of the billboard remained.

Qualifying third in the gold, we became the only mustang racing in the main event with "Voodoo" and "Strega" sitting it out due to mechanicals.
On Saturday, a cracked header tank and some other issues on Ridge Runner led to the installation of Strega's prop and spinner, to be tested on Race day. (Thanks for the loan guys.)
Sunday, Dan had a strong start in the Gold, settling into third from the start as Rare Bear led Brian Sanders in Dreadnought. On the second lap, Ridge Runner moved into second place. It looked great for a moment until a burned piston facilitated an early departure from the race. It was a great run.

We sold our new gear which Debuted at Oshkosh '05 along with the official race crew shirts for the Ridge Runner team. Astute Lost Squadrophiles discovered the new Aircraft Records shirt designed by us.
