Finally the official Speedcup 2008 results are listed:

Stefan Penz with his HAYABUSA set the new FAI world record of the F3S-F electric speed class:
394.3 kph (
245 mph)
But also the flights of Dag Cammann-Walczak with his F3S-D 15 cc speed plane were remarkable. Achieving 383.2 kph (
238.1 mph) while using an OS .91 VR-DF engine he was the fastest nitro-head this year.
Next year the electric boys expect breaking the 250 mph “barrier“ eventually.
The nitro guys don’t expect but hope to achieve the same, preferably with a FAI compliant F3S-C plane (10 cc + correct maximum wing load) to bust that 30 years old Russian FAI world record for IC powered speed planes.
