The Rat Race is over, and as always it is one of the most fun and cross country experiences I have every year. Even though the weather was wet and rainy the first 3 and a 1/2 days of the comp, the rest was perfect for cross country flying and racing.
The results had the hot pilots on the podium. All have extensive comp experience both nationally and internationally and the winner is a test pilot for Gin Gliders. Here are the results:
