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!
