Motorsport takes many forms, Formula 1, MotoGP, NASCAR, one of our favorites, the Bathurst1000, but air racing sits in a league of its own. Why? Because we race at speeds up to 525 miles per hour, just 50 feet off the ground, with up to 6 aircraft on the track trying to get past each other in a race.
In the cockpit, everything happens in seconds. Precision flying, split-second decisions, and managing G-forces that push pilots to the edge of performance. Unlike cars on a track, there are no brakes, no pit stops, just pure skill, discipline, and trust in your aircraft and the pilots you are flying with.

When you line up on the runway with your competitors, it’s not just about speed. It’s about strategy, courage, predictability, and absolute focus.
I’ve had the privilege of flying the L-29 jet on the racecourse, and I can tell you, there’s nothing like it. The adrenaline, the challenge, the camaraderie with our racing family and fans, it’s why we call this the fastest motorsport on earth.
Join us as we race in Roswell NM and make history at this first air racing event!
