The basic question is how would you go about making a 150 mph warbird following these rules:

The GP little toni looks like it might be able to do 150 with a YS 110 or 120SC but it was not an Unlimited class racer. There doesn’t seem like a real easy way to do this. No ARF that I know of will be able to withhold the stress of pylon racing at 150 MPH. Which brings up the question of whether or not an ARF is worth purchasing over a standard kit? The EZ Dago Red and Voodoo are great looking planes but to make them strong enough would require stripping off that beautiful covering—it would be such a shame. Yes, a WM P-51 can be made to go extremely fast, but what alternatives would be even faster? Warbird racing is big in Northern California and a WM Zero with a YS 120NC just is not doing it for me anymore.
