Default Red Bull Air Racing

Have you guys seen this? Hot rod airplanes racing at 230mph only 30 feet above the ground. 9 g corners around inflateable pylons, sometimes over water,sometimes over ground. There are 9 races this year at different locations all over the world. I see them on fox sports every sunday at 6pm central time, with reruns during the week. Check it out, it is way cool.

HELL YA!!! The red bull air race is a sick event. I almost took a drive down to san diego to go check them out last year! I'm not sure where their locations are this year, but i would so be down to go see this stuff in person

They were here in Detroit back in June (I think) and while I didn't see the race course, I saw them flying overhead and they are impressive. They can change direction so quickly, its amazing.
