It's too bad they've had 4 crashes there this weekend.

Is that a Mig3 in the first flyby?

No. Extensively modified P-51.

I will say I can watch the races from my back porch, but I was unable to watch the races this year.  i was too busy working and left town Fri-Sun.

I did however see the B17 that was flying low and slow over Reno Thursday.  I was at a stoplight and saw it coming over.  I turned off the radio and rolled down the widow just to hear it fly by.

It was a beautiful sight.
