Airplane Racing

[Dick Starbuck]

I can't recall if I saw it on Sportsnet or one of the other sports channels, but it's pretty addictive, especially in Hi-Def:

It's been on more than a couple of times, not sure if it's weekly or not. Anyone know the schedule?

It's cool to watch.

I don't know the TV schedule but the season is over for the year.

I caught it on Speedvision a couple of weekends ago when they were racing in Hungary (at least I think it was Hungary). The race in Amsterdam was televised last weekend, though I don't know exactly when the race took place.

It is seriously, seriously cool. Pulling about 11 g's at times, whipping through those pylons... gawd, it's incredible.
