Race Results
WIPRO NOW A PART OF THE RICH HISTORY at the Sentral
Illinois Radio Society (SIRS) flying field. SIRS hosted their first Q500-424
race weekend at their club field near Bloomington, IL, on June 20 & 21. The
competition went off without so much as a sniffle as these guys were all well
versed in race procedures from their prior 2 years of 4-star racing. Saturday
was hot and humid with a light breeze right down the runway. Of the 10 pilots
competing, half came away with one less airplane by the end of the day. The
soft Illinois cornfields were swallowing fuses up past the muffler! In the
end the top 3 was an interesting mix: Darwin Larson (experienced and current
racer) was first, Mike Wilson (second race in Q500-424) was second, and Bernie
Vanderleest (another experienced racer flying a backup plane) was third. The
parity of these events is great!
