Have not been around (ANY) EF 1 pylon racers. I bought a POGO and would like to know what speed I am looking for?
Anyone out there used a radar gun to see the speed?

ANOTHER QUESTION.
WOULD THE POGO BE COMPETITIVE COMPARED AGAINST ONE OF THE KIT BUILT RACERS?
READY TO FLY WITH A TURNIGY 2650 BATTERY, IT WEIGHS 3LB. 11OZ.
THE POGO SEEMS TO FLY OK ONCE IT IS AIRBORNE.

The Pogo does very well against any other EF-1 design.
I think that the kit built models however do have an advantage as they are built to weight and will be sanded and covered smoother than an ARF. I think that can be said for any type of racing event.
I would say practice and nail the takeoff and you will be right on track with anyone else.
