What are the Reno Air Races?

In my travels across the country i have visited many different lands in search of the metal birds! 


One of my favorite places to visit is Reno Nevada for the Air Races. Many people aren’t familiar with the Air Races and when i mention that I am off to the races, the most common comment is " the Red Bull Race?" No!! The Reno Air Races I always respond!!

  

For those of you not familiar with the Reno Air Races, this page is for you!!!!


About the STIHL National Championship Air Races

The STIHL National Championship Air Races are held every September just north of Reno by the Reno Air Racing Association, a 501(c)(3). The event has become an institution for Northern Nevada and aviation enthusiasts from around the world with 7 racing classes, a large display of static aircraft & several military & civilian flight demonstrations.  Independent economic impact studies show that the event generates as  much as $100 million annually for the local economy.

Reno Air Race Final Race........

March 2023

Open Letter to Our Loyal Fans

To our loyal fans and our passionate community,
 

It is with heavy hearts that we write this to let you know that, after  nearly 60 years of air racing in northern Nevada, 2023 will be the last  National Championship Air Races at the Reno-Stead Airport. While we knew  this day might eventually come, we had hoped it wouldn’t come so soon.  Citing the region’s significant growth amongst other concerns, the Reno  Tahoe Airport Authority has made the decision to sunset the event. For  so many around the world, Reno has become synonymous with air racing and  it is hard to imagine the National Championship Air Races gracing any  other skies than those in the Sierra Nevada. However, we are committed  to finding a new location so that the event can continue. In fact, we  are currently exploring several other possible locations to host the  event in the future but it starts with making this year’s event the  biggest and most successful it can be. In essence, the future of the  National Championship Air Races starts now. And, we need your help.
 

As we take off for one last time in Reno, we are inviting the community  and race fans from all over the world to join us in sending the Reno Air  Races off in style. Consider it a celebration of six decades of  thrills, history, pageantry, camaraderie and family. Reno has been the  event’s home for the last 59 years, and we could not leave without  recognizing the community that has embraced our event and helped make it  a signature event for our region. We look forward to seeing the many  faces the Air Races have brought joy to over the years, as well as new  ones who will get the chance to see the only racing event of its kind  for the first time this year.
 

While we discuss the future of the Air Races, we are grateful for our  time at the Reno-Stead Airport and our partnership with the Reno Tahoe  Airport Authority. Our event has generated hundreds of millions of  dollars for the local economy, while instilling a love for flying in the  community and becoming a valued partner to many charities and  non-profits. We have always been so thrilled to show off the beautiful  Reno Tahoe area to the tens of thousands that flew in just for our event  and we’re looking forward to doing that again this year. The support  from both our community and visitors has been overwhelming, and the  impact they helped us make in Reno is immeasurable.
 

The last National Championship Air Races in Reno will take place from  September 13-17. The 2023 event is set to return with more than 150  planes and pilots as well as several ‘hands-on’ displays and experiences  including the GRADD-NVBAA STEM Education Discovery Zone, heritage  displays, military demonstrations and static displays and more. The  event will also mark the third year of competition for the STOL (Short  Take-Off and Landing) Drag which has become a phenomenon in the skies.  While this is our last year at this location, the Reno Air Racing  Association is committed to preserving and growing this great event and  developing the next generation of Air Race fans. We look forward to  seeing you in September. You can save your spot now by purchasing  tickets at www.AirRace.org
 

With much appreciation and love,
 

The Reno Air Racing Association Board of Directors

       

Reno Aircraft Race Classes

Biplanes

STOL Aircraft

STOL Aircraft

Biplanes are represented by small, aerobatic aircraft like the Pitts Special, the Mong and the Smith Miniplane, gives pilots a chance to apply their skills to racing on a 3.18-mile course at speeds exceeding 200 mph.  

STOL Aircraft

STOL Aircraft

STOL Aircraft

Short Take Off and Landing (STOL) Drag fly with independent spirit, STOL drag racing is purely about who stops at the finish line first. STOL drag racers fly on a designated track, about 2,000 feet in each direction, landing on or after a while chalk line. Precision and perfect timing are crucial, as any aircraft that don’t make a complete stop between runs are disqualified.

Jet Aircraft

STOL Aircraft

Formula 1 Aircraft

Jet Aircraft were inaugurated in 2002 as an invitation-only class, featuring match racing with Czech-built Aerovodochody L-39 “Albatros” jets. Today the class has opened the field by adding other aircraft such as Provost, Iskra, L-29 and DeHavilland Vampires. This class truly stands for the “Fastest Motor Sport” with speeds exceeding 500 miles per hour.  

Formula 1 Aircraft

Formula 1 Aircraft

Formula 1 Aircraft

Formula 1 Planes are all powered by a Continental O-200 engine (the same 100 hp engine used in a Cessna 150). The fastest Formula 1 aircraft exceed 250 mph on the 3.12-mile race course in Reno. Many Formula 1 aircraft are built by the pilots that race them and are a relatively inexpensive way to enjoy the excitement and satisfaction of air racing.

Sport Planes

Formula 1 Aircraft

T-6 Texan Aircraft

Sport aircraft highlight the new and innovative work being done in the development of high-performance kit-built aircraft. Competition in the Sport Class is fierce, with the rapid introduction of race-driven engine and air frame technology. Sport Class aircraft race on a 6.37-mile course at speeds reaching nearly 350 mph.

T-6 Texan Aircraft

Formula 1 Aircraft

T-6 Texan Aircraft

The T-6  features racing between stock aircraft, including the original T-6 “Texan,” the Canadian-built “Harvard,” and the US Navy “SNJ” version aircraft. The fastest T-6 aircraft generally post race speeds into the 220-230 mph range on the 5.06-mile course at Reno. Because the aircraft are all of the same type, the T-6 Class provides some of the most exciting racing at Reno, with an emphasis on strategy and pilot skill rather than raw horsepower  

Unlimited Aircraft

Unlimited Aircraft

Unlimited Aircraft

Unlimited Aircraft are all powered, with the exception of very few “scratch-built” aircraft, by stock or modified WWII fighters with the P-51 Mustangs, F-8F Bearcats and Hawker Sea Fury being flown most often. The Unlimited Class flies in speeds exceeding 500 mph.
