I hope these stupid races end. For one thing, it's a historic shame to mangle a priceless airplane like the Mustang just for racing. If you want to race dedicated racers, fine - but this plane was pushed beyond what she was made to do, which was to kill Nazis and defend Allies. The pilot's manual shows how not to kill yourself by inducing a high-speed stall in a turn, which is exactly what this guy did. He cut the wings down by 5 feet and the ailerons by 30"! That alone is certifiably nuts. I think the ultimate in stupidity at these shows took place a couple of years ago when someone decided he could do low-level aerobatics in a P-63! A P-63!!
