You were at the Lincoln Nats? My old flying partner, Dave Henderson, was in the Fast final, and lost the match to a streamer handling error! He most likely would have won that match, as he had a modern design, and the other guy had a Voodoo! He always talked about that match. So he came in 2nd.
I am of the opinion that the speed limit events, namely 75 mph, is the best event out there. Not too fast, lots of action, emphasis on air time and cuts. It is more fun than any other combat event I have flown.
