Air Racing News 2008

Air Racing's Status 2008:

There are currently no bonafied Closed Course Pylon Races in the United States at this time. The "Reno" event remains a fake, a fraud, a lie, a farce, and now, one of the most dangerous motorsporting events in the World based on the Event organizer's failures in Safety and Accident Prevention at the event. Three dead at the event in 2007. One dead immediately following the event. A Class President dead in a non-Air Racing accident. Four veterans, one rookie, none benefitting from Houghton's "Pylon Racing Seminar," or "Rookie School," because that "training" is as bogus as a three-dollar bill.

Truly, what is being learned at Michael "Mickey Da Rat" Houghton's "Rookie School!?"

Not a DAMNED thing, other than the beer is warm, the pizza is cold and so are the bodies that are piling up like stacked wood in a cord!

The only good news in 2008 is that a new start-up will occur at Oklahoma City in October, featuring the International Formula One racers (IF1) of the new Pylon Racing Pilots Association (PRPA), which has established its first event in conjunction with the Czech Festival, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

And needless to say, the owner and operator of the new event will never kiss Mike Houghton's ring or a$$, and is more likely to kick Houghton's worthless a$$ should the "Midget Mob Boss of Reno Stead" get in his way, looking for a hand out!

Organizer of the new event is IF1's own Ray Sherwood, who was unlawfully ousted as President of IF1 in 2005 via the manipulations of Michael "Mickey Da Rat" Houghton of the corrupt "Reno Air Racing Association (RARA)," and former IF1 racer Birch Entriken, who attempted to tag Sherwood with responsibility for the death of one of his crew at another racing event in Oklahoma City, despite the fact the fatality occurred as a result of Entriken's crew responding to an accident on the field, a well-publicized violation of Safety Rules in Air Racing across the board.

The fatal injury occurred when a crewman fell from Entriken's vehicle while responding to the accident scene without authority or approval. The crewman hit his head on the airport's concrete and died at the scene of head injuries. Attempts to revive him were unsuccessful.

Birch Entriken, Gary Dalleske and David Hoover, all part of the IF1 board that ousted Sherwood, have sold their racers and have resigned from IF1, this after reports that Michael J. "Mickey Da Rat" Houghton will cancel IF1 this year at Stead, in order to give moneys to the Unlimited Class, whom he insulted by attempting to deny the Unlimiteds major portions of their purse at the 2007 "Reno National Championship Invitational for Entertainment Only Air Racing Event," a foolish move that brought about the threat of boycott by the Unlimiteds, which would of course mean, the end of the fake Air Races at Stead.

More importantly, it would mean no money for Houghton or his cronies and their Thugs, which is an event that is going to occur anyway since Houghton has personally aided and abetted the Airport Authority of Washoe County (AAWC) in their attempts to shut down the races.

As it is, we are still investigating a rumor that two members of the RARA (Rhymes with "HA HA") Board have received bonuses totaling, if not exceeding, one million dollars, and there are other members on the Board who would have also received substantial bonuses as a result, moneys that may or may not be getting declared on IRS Tax Forms, which RARA and Jones Vargas are annually denying this publication and its Publisher/Editor access to, in violation of Federal and State Tax Laws involving Non-profit Coprorate operations.

Mr. Rat (Houghton), Ms. Valerie Enos (Public Relations & Marketing), Tom Gribbin (Board of Directors, RARA, Board of Trustees, AAWC, President and Board of Directors, RARF), Wayne Sagar (AAFO.Com) and James Richard Campbell (Aero-News.Net) ~ the latter two fake "journalists" operating as Agents and Vectors of RARA in Sagar's case and RARA along with the Rocket Racing League (RRL) in Campbell's case ~ are all implicated in a Federal Racketeering Influenced Corrupt Organization's Act (RICO) and Civil Rights case filed by the Publisher of ILIPS Group International, owner and operator of The Home Pylon Group of publications at www.thehomepylon.com, www.thehomepylon.net, and www.thehomepylon.org (Not yet operational). Aviation & Marine USA and Silver State News Service, among others, based on verbal, written and documented reports and evidence that all the above had been involved in threatening Air Racer Ron Buccarelli and his crew that if they continued to have anything to do with Publisher Mark S. "Bear" Daniels, they would be bannished from the "Reno" event.

This produced multiple Civil Rights violations and automatic RICO charges due to the use of threats, intimidation, coercion and harassment, directed by multiple businesses against another for doing business with a third and for having "association with" and giving "credibility in Air Racing to" an established Journalist of over 35 years, who has covered Air Racing since June, 1976, and been published all over the World as a direct result.

This is not the most disturbing news of the past year. Mickey Da Rat's event has killed another three pilots within days of each other, and one additional pilot has died following the races, including collective during-post racing, two pilots who may have been flying aircraft too enhanced for their experience, one of them described as a "rookie;" along with a veteranJet Class pilot; and the veteran, five-time National Champion in IF1.

Dead are pilots Steve Dari, in the National Championship winning, Rose-Perigrine Sport Biplane, formerly known as "Rags;" Brad Morehouse in the L-39 Albatros, which crashed and enveloped the Home Pylon judging and timing area in smoke and flame when the aircraft exploded on impact; and Gary Hubler, who collided with Jason Somes, flying Race 4, Alley Cat, the former Owl Racer "Lil' Quickie," Race 71. Hubler was killed instantly when his aircraft impacted the desert. Somes was injured and had minor surgery to his eye, due to debris encountered as a result of the collision. Two Pylon Judges were injured on the ground, one refusing treatment. A third pilot's aircraft was reportedly damaged by debris from the collision. Somes retired from Air Racing immediately after the accident.

After the Air Races had ended, "rookie" pilot Pat Gleason was killed in the IF1 known as Barbara Jean 2, a gorgeous Kevin Kelly design, with witnesses on the ground indicating pilot error as the likely cause. We are still attempting to determine if Gleason had yet been trained at Houghton's greed-motivated Pylon Racing Seminar (PRS), which is a farce and travesty when it comes to issues of Safety, charges pilots illegally for time, training and experience on the course, and remains heavily criticized for its concern over intake of "profit, beer and pizza" rather than output and excellence in areas of Air Racing Safety.

In February, 2007, Sport Biplane Class President Steve Brown, was killed in a non-Air Racing accident in the Sierras, while performing aerobatics in a Pitts S2 Biplane. A horrible year for Air Racing overall. John Parker barely escaped a fiery death prior to the Air Races when his Thunder Mustang TM-1, "Blue Thunder," went off the runway during takeoff, then caught fire when the brakes overheated and started a brush fire beneath the aircraft, which was to heavy to move from the sand and sage, with no CFR equipment being on site at Stead to assist him by putting out the flames. The aircraft was gutted.

Beyond these safety issues, Pilot Ron Buccarelli was the center of further controversy after making First Amendment-protected statements to a Journalist from the Reno-Gazette Journal. Houghton immediately retaliated against Buccarelli by banishing him from further Air Racing and refusing to pay his winnings/dues up to the moment of banishment. The rat-clawed Houghton later apologized and shook Buccarelli's hand after the event ~ helluva thing, having to shake hands with that smelly Rat ( ! ) ~ indicating that Buccarelli would be paid, however, Ron has retired from Air Racing, put his exotic racer, Precious Metal, Race 38, a Griffon-powered Mustang, up for sale...

...and the Unlimiteds, who were also denied their pay for "off-time" caused by Houghton's ridiculously unsafe races this year, threatened boycott...

...and now Houghton is apparently reeling and responding to the threat with a promise of increased purse.

The purse, however, will be stolen entirely from IF1, which already suffered the loss of a portion of their purse to Sport Biplane, but more importantly, to the Reno Balloon Air Races, with Houghton and his Board's "unanticipated expenses fund" taking one half the monies they embezzled from IF1 to sponsor the 2007 Great Reno Balloon Races, which frankly we must admit, are more exciting than Houghton's event and more deserving of the entire purse and effort than the "BS" (Balloon Subserviant) "Reno National Championship Invitational For Entertainment Only, Air Race Nazi, Good Ol' Boy Rich Environment, Ask Joey and he will Show You his 'Tri- Tip' Air Races" complete with "Thug's Dog & Pony Show!"

...this according to our reports so far. I mean, we at ILIPS can pressure Houghton with more than enough of the bad publicity he deserves, but when the IF1 Board of Directors rolls over to the guy because they're in his pocket ~ to the point they all sell their aircraft because they know he's about to cancel IF1 racing forever at Reno, quit IF1 and go on their merry way, hey ( ! ) ~ what's a Publisher to do!?

Frankly, in regards to the destruction of the IF1 ranks at Reno by Houghton and his cronies formerly in IF1 (one is still attempting to sell his aircraft; there are buyers, so the rest of you in IF1, don't despair!), there's not enough there in the way of IF1's purse that should be satisfying to the Unlimiteds ~ except, maybe, for "PIG Pilot" and his General Motors "Viagra Cat" (There's a sponsor for you, the only "Limp Iron" racer in the Heavy Iron ranks needing Viagra...) ~ therefore, we at ILIPS Group International hope the pressure we put on Mickey Da Rat in regards to our reporting of his injustices and "Indecent Proposal-style" rolling in other people's money bed forces him to change his mind and include the IF1s this year, restoring their pay, and reducing the fabled bonuses (@ $1,000,000 for two people alone ~ Devil knows what the rest of the Board of Defectives at RARA received...) reportedly being received by himself and others on the RARA Board, in order to pay the Teams and the Pilots P-R-O-P-E-R-L-Y !!!

Included among those previously mentioned "injustices," confirmation that the "Saturday Night Style Massacre" of the female office staff members of RARA, was based on Sexual Harassment charges directed against Houghton and Joey "Da Tri Tip" Scolari, which were responded to by "Entertainment Mogul" Houghton with one of the cheapest, tackiest, most clichéd but effective threats ever lodged against women and single mothers in particular, by a Mogul in the "Entertainment Industry:"

"You'll never work in this town again!"

In the history of "Entertainment," let alone, "Air Racing as Entertainment," the only person ever to deserve the end-effect of such a low-life, cowardly, yellow, prissy-little-school-girl threat (as delivered by an alleged "man"), is the raunchy, filthy mouth (because you don't know where it's been, unless you're me and have heard the complaints of witnesses...) that utters such trashy, Machiavellian expressions.

Remembering, of course, that Machiavelli was an individual who advised an Italian Prince centuries ago, of the assumption that the Prince had the assumed right to torture a few others in order to maintain control of his "Royal Neighborhood," in order to accomplish the good works he could do for a majority of others. Or, in other words:

"The ends justifies the means..."

The Prince and the People both, rejected his advise as unconscienable.

American Politicians, Generals, Attorneys, and Businessmen to this day ~ beyond the Milquetoast Mike Houghton ~ practice this concept to this day. And what is the current RARA Board of Directors made up of, but "American Politicans, Generals, Attorneys and Businessmen!

Oh, excpet ~ this time around ~ women on the Board of RARA Directors, like Susan Fischer, of Sierra Pacific Power, also support Mike and Joey Butabi's right to sexually harass the women on their Office Staff, along with Keno Girls down at the Hilton Pylon Bar, which in regards to one of the greatest forms of Poetic Justice ever accomplished in Air Racing to date, abolished, dismantled and closed, by the new owners of the former Reno Hilton!

THERE IS A GOD!!! <GGG>

Good family men, everywhere, REJOICE!!!

As for all women currently working for or with Mickey Da Rat, Joey Da Tri Tip and RARA, including volunteers...

...you should ALL hang their heads in SHAME!

ILIPS Group International is thinking "FLO-MAX" for the so-called "men" of that sexist, racist, (non-) officer-and-gentlemen "challenged" organization, along with Sex Offender registration for Scolari and those aiding and abetting his crimes and those of the Owners & Managers of Scolari Warehouse Markets, Inc., of EEOC vs Scolari Warehouse Markets Inc., fame.

FYI for those "Inquiring Minds..."

...FLO-MAX is not a Nasal Spray (That's FLO-NASE ~ Ed.), it's the Federal Penitentiary in Florence, Colorado, that cuts off almost all contact between the outside World ~ including with family members ~ and the Maxium Security prisoners within, like the late David McVeigh, high-level Al Qaida operatives and associated Shoe/Dirty Bombers, and real-world "geniuses-slant/morons" like the "Unibomber," Ted Kacinzky, who none the less, are head-over-heels "upstanding citizens all" in contrast to Houghton, his Board of Directors, their Thugs and Flunkies, who have all taken over at the former "Reno National Championship Air Races," even going as far as to oust the legitimate and good volunteers who formerly worked for that "organization," in order to enjoy the perks and bennies that come with giving oral sex to Mike Houghton's ego and vanity (a.k.a. "penis, buttocks," respectively ~ Ed.).

Now, in regards to Houghton and his disdain for what we publish here at ILIPS, RARA has reportedly refrained from the posting of "Wanted ~ Deal or Alive Posters" of Publisher/Editor Mark S. "Bear" Daniels," in exchange for the more concealable, apparently-deemed-politically-correct, "Mug Shots."

They have also threatened directly and indirectly, our supporting photographers, forcing one to quit in justifiable fear. None of us at ILIPS bear any ill will or grievance towards or against this individual, simply because, we understand perfectly the risk to him, his loved ones, family and friends. Reporters around the World face death and injury on a daily basis, with the leading cause of their murder not being "War Correspondence," but rather, "fighting corruption" (Source: Reporters Without Borders ~ Ed.)

Also, and we are still investigating this newest issue, however, in the latest act of Racketeering and Civil Rights violations ~ en masse, we might add ~ it would appear that Houghton, RARA, Reno P.D. and the Washoe County Health Department, conspired to violate the Civil Rights of thousands, perhaps over 10,000, by banishing people from the "Valley of Speed" viewing areas in 2007, based on allegations that a woman bared her lower torso and took a dump in the Valley of Speed for lack of restroom facilities and/or trees, bushes. The complaint was reportedly filed by a resident living along the Valley of Speed, however, we have our doubts based on the preponderence of evidence against Houghton, RARA, Reno P.D. and Washoe County in particular, for conspiracy issues involving Racketeering previously, in our case and in others.

Any which way you look at it, as many as 10,000 or more people were denied their First Amendment Right to "Peaceably Assemble," after being deported by the Air Race Nazis, their Agents and Vectors, in what is apparently the worst violation of the Constitution and Civil Rights by the evil, snickering, Micket Da Rat and RARA's Board of Defectives, in the history of Air Racing.

All 98+ years so far...

...so bad, that compared to conduct directed against a certain Publisher and Editor, the action taken against the "Ten Thousand" in contrast to those actions taken against this one, measely, Publisher and Editor, basically equate in contrast to audaciously submitting to the P&E's charges, pleading guilty, paying the fines, going to prison, being bitch-slapped and sodomized by their cellmates en masse, then turning around and electing said P&E the "Air Race Queen" while getting down on their hands and knees and paying him Olympian-style homages not seen since the Greek poets wrote of "Zeus!"

(Note: Or in simpler words, compared to what they did to the folks in the Valley of Speed, they haven't laid a glove on me, but rather, have unexpectedly put me on a pedastal to dance around me like they would the "Golden Calf!" God! I love Air Racing! <g> Never a dull moment...and then, there's still the "Jungle Juice" down at the Warlock party! <ggg> ~ Ed.)

Anticipate a Class Action lawsuit in Federal Court shortly...those wishing to have their names added to said Class Action, which merely requires numbers of 100 or more (Group Action lawsuit is 100 or less...), merely need to contact this Publisher & Editor at:

bearzbearzbearz@yahoo.com

...to have their names included in the action, which will be Racketeering and Civil Rights based. Once more than 100 signatures have been gathered, the matter will be taken to a Class Action Attorney for serious consideration. The Attorney will need to be able to contact you, so include "point of contact" information, which will be forwarded to the Attorney. We do not Spam here.

It's more fun to pick on Houghton and his worthless Thugs and a$$-kissers! <GGG>

The potential for a second Class Action lawsuit is also real, based on fraud directed against the paying fans of Air Racing by Houghton and the Thugs at RARA. Based on recently published rules, which we've monitored and copied verbatim over the past five years, the "Reno National Championship Air Races" are a fraud for which the People should receive their money back, in the opine of this Publisher & Editor, along with his Aviation News and State News publications. Therefore, anyone interest in getting their money back for the fraud that constitutes the "Reno National Championship Air Races," please contact the Publisher and Editor with said "point of contact" information at:

bearzbearzbearz@yahoo.com

...to have their names included in the action, which will be Racketeering and Civil Rights based. Once more than 100 signatures have been gathered, the matter will be taken to a Class Action Attorney for serious consideration. The Publisher and Editor Estimates that in excess of two million people have been defrauded of their hard-earned moneys during Houghton's tenure, not including sponsors, corporate sponsors, vendors, advertisers and other associated businesses, therefore...

...we anticipate no problem in obtaining the 100 signatures necessary for initiating a Class Action Lawsuit.

All this in addition to the Land Fraud, Waste and Abuse, the Publisher and Editor of ILIPS Group International is alleging against the AAWC and RARA, along with the FAA of the U.S. Federal Government ~ and shortly, other Federal agencies ~ in regards to the current status of land at Stead Airport, Nevada, and other "Airport Properties" being siphoned-off by Krys Bart, Houghton, "Kingpin" Raggio, Jones Vargas and the AAWC/RARA, which we consider all one and the same "RICO" organization, especially when combined with the Reno Sparks Convention and Visitor's Authority (RSCVA), among other local and State agencies and entities in Nevada and elsewhere (i.e., their associates in Mississippi, Virginia and Las Vegas, for example. Getting curious!? Stay tuned to Silver State News! ~ Ed.).

Air Racing still maintains a bright future if anyone in the Sport is willing to fight for their Sport.

Bob Avery still has the Las Vegas Air Races in the planning stages, with delays in the development of the new Cargo facility and Airport at Mesquite, Nevada, being the only "setback" to report, other than Blayne Slagar attempting to "hedge his bets" by running their website. Blayne, of course, is Houghton's "Inside Man" in Las Vegas, to no avail, since he doesn't live in Las Vegas and there is a virtual "Mongol Hoarde" of Webmasters out there just waiting to take over...ANYTHING, let alone...Blayne's pitiful operation.

Blayne turned stalkier than ever this year, harassing a noted Photojournalist (other than I ~ Ed.) in the biz and a remarkably independent and cavalier Sport Biplane pilot with an extraordinary following that matches her "Extreme" sense of humor and ability to bond with "Boyz!"

...another thing for Blayne to be jealous of! A woman that can male bond when he can't!

Mesquite also has a new Mayor and her position on the development of Air Races at Mesquite must be invited and explored. We are hoping for and predicting the best, especially since Mesquite finds itself in reach of the populations of three States, including Nevada, where Mesquie sits, and neighboring Arizona and Utah. The best of many World's, Mesquite sits in a locale that can be protected from encroachment at the outset due to more modern planning methods and lessons learned (from the mistakes made by the Idiots in planning at the AAWC, no doubt!~ Ed.) , plus one of the proposals for the location of the new cargo facility being a form of "natural protection" against encroachment by "outside predators" (anything that thinks the sound of a thousand 747 cargo frieghters ~ all landing or taking off at the same time at the beginning of or end of night ~ is anything other than the "Sound of Freedom!" and would complain about cracks in the walls from the same...<g> ~ Ed.).

Air Race fanatics might want to consider new alternatives in housing, i.e., a return to the old Native American concept of "Cliff Dwelling," alá Mesa Verde, Colorado. Much easier to spot, pounce on, kill and eat an "Air Race Nazi" when you can see them coming ~ from altitude, like a Bird of Prey ~ then to have to deal with them while parking your aircraft or your chair along the hot ramp at a place like, oh, Stead Airport, Nevada! How cool to be at eye level with competing Unlimited Class racing planes, let alone, living in the Pylon! <G>

I just love talking cryptically! <GGG> More to come! Stay tuned to Silver State News!

Ray Sherwood's new PRPA has the new Oklahoma City Air Race on tap for this Fall, and two other events approaching fruition elsewhere in the United States, with other venues to be discussed and explored shortly.

Attempts by Houghton to monopolize Air Racing appear to be failing ~ frankly, "FAILED!" ~ and the "Reno National Championship Invitational For Entertainment Only Air Races, Good Ol' Boy and Air Race Nazi Fest," are on their way out ~ days numbered ~ and surprisingly, the number of Air Race pilots wishing to see the event gone from Reno and into oblivion is increasing!

Most know that Air Racing will not die nationally or internationally, just in Reno, the "Biggest Little Stupidest City in the World Represented by the State Senate Repist Majority Leader William ' The Kingpin ' Raggio!"

Fortunately, due to old age and the butt-ugly (also known as oogly, in Scotland...Ed.) photographs seen at the new Jones Vargas Law Firm website, at:

www (why why why!?) .unlimitednumbersofshystera$$holes.com

...Raggio's days appear numbered, too!

Nevada Democrats are reportedly breathless in anticipation (Even liberal independents, such as myself, need no less than fifty oxygen tanks per month around the house ~ Ed.), knowing soon, that they can rename the "Reno ~ Ta ~ Ho" (emphasis on the "Ho," without apologies to Imus, Rutgers Women's Athletic Sports or the so-called "Men" on the AAWC Board of Trustees ~ Ed.) airport once again for Senator Howard Cannon, before moving the expensive "William Raggio Memorial Erection" from the hallways of the current terminal, where it can be moved to the men's restroom for more appropriate uses involving sanitary facilities, running water, and guys immitating "Cherubs" standing over a pool/fool...

The "Pi$$ on Raggio" Contest Committee is also reportedly accepting offers of prizes to be distributed to the most creative "Cherubs" traveling through Howard Cannon International Airport, Reno, Nevada, along with those merely traveling to the airport to specifically visit the men's restroom, to express their First Amendment Civil Right to Freedom (Pee-dom?) of Speech. And/or "Oral Communications," considering the Senator's big mouth, legendary, "pouty" lips, and "come hither" expression...

For the record, Sexual Harassment of a State Senator's "Statue" is reportedly not prohibited by Law...provided one utilize's their hands to hold the Senator's statue's head with respect and reverence during the deed...

...said "respect and reverence" being shown to all whom the State Senate Rapist Majority Leader and his friends (Houghton, Scolari, et al...) have Sexually Harassed and/or "Raped" and/or Attempted to Rape and/or "Sexually Trafficked" and/or attempted to "Sexually Traffick" through, or worse...

...delivered clichéd, singles bar "one liners" on in the course of the victims' (plural) employment ~ in strictest and most contemptful violation of State and Federal Laws combined, along with Ethics, Morals, Values and Standards of Conduct, expressly prohibited by all that is Humane and Decent (!!!), including multiple works reported to have been devined by God...

...while one is committing the First Amendment-protected er, "statement," in the "face of Raggio" and through those pouty lips, which we must warn you, might be squirting water at you during the deed...or worse.

...the use of which is expected to be "high" in terms of frequency and repeat ("Sloppy Seconds") visitors.

Wear a "raincoat," in other words, figuratively and literally speaking.

In fact, the rumor is in the works ~ we have not yet fully confirmed it as it's still in the writing stage (Coming soon! I'm still writing it...mañana, mañana! ~ Ed.) ~ that "Frequent Flyer Miles" will be offered by Commerical Airlines serving Howard Cannon International Airport, in deference to visitors to the William Raggio Memorial Erection in the men's restroom in the future "William Jefferson Clinton Terminal."

Free cigars are to be handed out to visitors coming from the men's restroom at the Monica Lewinsky Cigar and Beret Fashion Bazaar, due to be installed at the terminal the moment Billary are once again elected President.

Got all that!?

Glad you read The Home Pylon!?

We know you are! You bet! And don't forget, eight years, then Chelsea! <g> Or Chelbillary, or if you say it real fast with an Arkansas accent, it's:

"Chill Hillbillies!"

If it's Air Racing related, we have it here! <g> Nothing but the best for our readers!

Getting back to the subject of the World's Fastest Motorsport, as opposed to the World's Sleeziest People Running The Fake Events (Houghton, Scolari, RARA, Diamandis, Whitelaw, RRL, as they reported at Aero-Sleeze.Slut, et al), 22nd thru 29th August marks the 99th Anniversary of Air Racing and the eve of the Air Racing Centennial. Air Racing began in Rheims, France, in August, 1909, in what is believed to be to date, the most epic, grand, elegant and colorful event, ever to have occurred in Air Racing, let alone, Aerospace.

Now, think about that ~ an event that eclipses the Paris Air Show, the later an event that operates at present, every two years...

Rheims offered "Le Grand Semaine d'Aviation de la Champagne!"

Airplanes, Air Racing, World Recognized Records, Enormous Crowds, Sponsors offering obscene amounts of money "hand-over-fist" (as opposed to being "fisted" by Mickey Da Rat ~ Ed.) the Nation's President to Honor You...

...and Champagne!

Just remember that the next time you go for Mickey Da Rat's "Beer, Pizza and BLOOD" at Reno, all you "Reno Air Racers" out there!

Remember:

Let me assure you ALL ( ! ), you'll do better at Chuck E. Cheeze, plus it will cost you less, the wife and the kids will be happier, and you can sell the stuff you win at Skee-ball for a greater purse than the Air Race Nazis can muster via their shakedowns of the participants on the ramp or in the Vendor's boothes at Stead.

AND...nobody dies at Chuck E. Cheese. The Rat there is trained in giving you Mouth-to-Mouth recessitation, not vice-versa, with the employees and "invited guests" forced to give it to him., and in regards to the latter, not always on the mouth...

Do you know where your lips have been!? Are you free to say it?

If the answer is "yes," you must not be faux racing at Reno!

Air Racing's Status 2007:

There are currently no bonafied Closed Course Pylon Races in the United States at this time.

The so-called, self-proclaimed, "Reno National Championship Air Races" are not a real air racing event, are in fact, "invitational" in nature, designated by the Event Operators as "Entertainment" and not proper Sports, Sporting Events, or Motorsports/Motorsporting Events.

Further, the so-called Reno National Championship Air Races are run by Racketeers and Thugs, are involved in Fraud and Civil Rights violations, operate fixed races and are therefore not qualified to be an Air Race, let alone, a "National Championship Air Race."

The facade known as the "Reno Air Racing Association" is a dangerous entitly known for its unsafe procedures, safety violations, resulting accidents, political interference in the leadership and membership of racing classes ~ to which RARA does not belong ~ harassment of racers, team members, fans and sponsors, and discrimination against veterans and disabled veterans.

Furthermore, RARA's current leadership has been involved in serious criminal misconduct involving fraud and laund fraud, intimidation, coercion, harassment, threats, false arrest, perjury, bribery, First Amendment and other Civil Rights violations directed against the legitimate Press, and other activities up to and including attempted murder.

Finally, both the RARA and the Airport Authority of Washoe County (AAWC) have announced publicly, the pending shut-down of the so-called "Reno Air Races" in the near future.

ILIPS Group and its publications strongly advise boycott of any further RARA-sponsored and/or related events, to include Rocket Racing League (RRL) Events of Dr. Peter H. Diamandis and Granger Whitelaw of the RRL. RARA is a co-sponsor of RRL events and proposes a National Championship for Rocket Racing, however, the RRL have included among their list of pilots one Mr. James R. "Captain Zoom" Campbell, whom ILIPS Group feels is a danger to himself and others and further, has himself made false claims of status (a.k.a. "Stolen Glory") as a Vietnam Veteran, Purple Heart (Wounded in Action) Vietnam Veteran and presence in Vietnam at the My Lai Massacre, self-proclaimed "knowledge" of which serves as the foundation for the outlandish charge make by Campbell that he has been followed by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and watched for what he knows.

The RRL has refused to respond to complaints about Mr. Campbell and stonewalls the issues of his fraudulent claims of service in Vietnam, with the intent of glorifying him at their RRL events in Las Cruces, New Mexico, scheduled for the Fall of 2007, and at the so-called "Reno Air Races," which will likely have an RRL presence this September, 2007, and following September, 2008.

Beyond that, ILIPS Group considers the RRL Events to be fraudulent in their marketing and proposed presentation, non-Sporting and non_Motorsporting Events, run as "Entertainment," as well as in general, a waste of time, aircraft, fuel, pilots and the potential race fan's hard-earned money.

Closed Course Air Racing is available in the United States at a number of venues, most prominently, the EAA AirVenture Cup Race held in conjunction with the Experimental Aircraft Association's (EAA) AirVenture Air Show, which attracts anywhere between 750,000 and 1,000,000 people annually, in Oshkosh, Wisconsin.

Closed Course Pylon Racing is only available in England and France at this time and involves European Formula One Events. Cross Country Air Racing, including the King's Cup, are also available in England, France, Germany and elsewhere around the World.

Seaplane Racing, under the banner of the Schneider Cup, has returned to the Closed Course in Italy, utilizing at present, Microlight aircraft.

Closed Course U.S. Air Racing events are currently being scheduled for 2008 and beyond, in Oklahoma City and Las Vegas, minimum.
