Thanks 4deck for the plug :aok
Hey WWhiskey, I run the SASFRAS on every 2nd Sunday of the month in the SEA 1. It is a RV-8 race with custom tracks. Right now I am on monthly themes, like Fathers day, Mothers day, even had a Valentines Day run. You will find more info at this website http://ahevents.org/events/hms.html, and
also in the HMS(Heavy Metal Sunday) forum just below the AHXARL forum.
SASFRAS stands for Super Agile Super Fast Racing Aircraft Series. We have run 10 races and the times for a track are around 1:30 to 2:10. The standard track setup is an old way I tried to keep the tracks the same but it got old real fast. I still use elements from it though & have designed custom tracks each 2nd Sunday.
Mainly what set this racing up is the fire pylons. Since HTC doesn't have a way to deploy racing pylons, I have found ways to use the fires of hangars
& other structures to simulate them. When set to a extra long downtime, the fires will be lit for a long time. The initial problem is with the smoke. It
kills frame rate, but that is solved by staying in the arena for around 10-15 mins for the smoke to dissipate, then the fire stays.
I usually start practice & parade laps around 6pm EST and get those that feel confident bracketed up by 6:45pm EST to start the race at 7pm EST.
Watch for the arena announcements on the 2nd Sunday of each month, I'll be letting everyone know about then. Looking forward to seeing ya there :salute

Hi WWhiskey,
Did you tried the BGE_AirRace yet?
It has a real life Barcelona Red Bull Air Race track (1.5:1 scale).
Also the air-gate entries are recorded individually: speed, split time, attitude & altitude.
The maximum G-forces are recorded between air-gates as well.
The penalties are calculated accordingly. No guessing with result.
Of course the one man team can't get the GUI, graphics & flight model to the Aces high level, but those are reviewed.... Well, slowly :)
Give a try and post your feedback.
Thank you for your advance.
