Single Seaters, WAR FW190/Midget Mustang

Does anyone here have experience of running a WAR FW190 or a Midget Mustang?

I'm coming to terms with the fact that getting the missus to fly with me gives me more of a buzz than her, and I would really like a more capable machine. A Midget Mustang or a WAR FW190 would seem to fit the bill of over 150knot top speed, very basic aeros capability, and reasonably cheap to run.

I also know they both require solid tailwheel skills and a reasonably sized runway. What I really want to know about is what they are like to live with? What are the maintenance requirements? Has a WAR FW190 ever come apart in the air (I'll be wanting to race it).
Cheers,
FF.
