The Rocket Racing League has announced that their first exhibition race will (finally) be held at the EAA AirVenture in Oshkosh August 1st and 2nd, 2008.
The Racing League features rocket-powered aircraft that are flown by through a "three-dimensional track way" at venues throughout the world.
At Oshkosh:
...two Rocket Racers will compete head-to-head in a demonstration race in the raceway in the sky. The Rocket Racer pilots will view the "raceway in the sky" via in-panel and 3D helmet displays and the 700,000 people in attendance at EAA AirVenture will witness the racing action live on multiple large projection screens.
After the Oshkosh event, the 2008 schedule looks like this:
Reno National Championship Air Races (Reno, NV) - September 10-14
X Prize Cup (Las Cruces, NM) - TBD 2008
Aviation Nation, Nellis AFB, (Las Vegas, NV) - November 8-9
You won't find anything like this elsewhere!
