for anyone who is interested in Prop racing

Archived from groups: alt.games.microsoft.flight-sim (More info?)

Hello all,

For the last couple weeks I have been flying online with a small group
from http://westcoastatc.com doing Prop Racing.

It's the ultimate excitement for me and if your into it i encourage you
all to join in on the fun. Right now they have 3 different planes you
download from them and use. P51 Mustang, Pitts BiPlane, & Lancair
Legacy. They have a bunch of different paint jobs and everyone is
flying a different one.
The first week I raced was a cross country from Stead to Bishop. Gary
the race director gets you the flight plan and you put it in your gps
and then set up your plane with the right amount of fuel, trim etc...
then he sends up an AI pace plane we follow for a lap around the pylon
course below and everyone gets formed up together and match speed and
then were off and everyone heads for the deck and gets speed up to
380ias ++ and heads for the first airstrip. They even have a module add
on for FS that you validat with before the race starts and it keeps
track of everyones time and makes sure you make it between all the
pylons from one airstrip to the next.

Here is a little blur from the website...
