Description
A rare opportunity to purchase a historic race aircraft in perfect condition. Gotcha! (race 9) has an incredible history winning Gold in the late 70’s at the Reno Air Races and to this day is a crowd favorite as she raced again in 2018.
The aircraft was fully restored in 2017 by Dennis Buehn. A custom race engine with flowed heads and many other internal goodies was built by Rex Vaughn at Tulsa Aircraft Engines. Gotcha! Only has a handful of laps on this engine and is barely broken in with less than 300 hrs on engine.
Just some of its features are listed below. The aircraft runs and flies perfectly with a 10,000.00 plus annual just completed on 11/11/2021. Comes with both standard prop (overhauled 150 hrs ago) as well as freshly overhauled race prop. Parachutes not included in the sale.
