Just went to the Reno Air Races (Sept 2014). I have known about the races for many decades and finally said I can't wait any longer and went. Wow! Breathtaking, Incredible, Stunning, and More. To see planes racing head to head at over 490 miles per hour, separated by a nose or less is a big WOW! To see the jet teams in formation! Double Wow! To see the aerobatics Triple Wow! To get up close and personal in the pits. Yum! The whole day from start to finish is five star fun. Bring a good hat with a big brim all around and sunblock, plan to walk around a lot to see things. Bring you Binoculars to see on the far side of the track and be ready to be amazed! It is a huge event with more food than you need as well! Come early (before 8:00 AM) and plan to see everything. The Unlimited Class is quite a display of power and speed. The parking was easy, and the exit after the event was relatively easy. (it is tougher at Dodger Stadium than this)
The is a lot of cool stuff to browse, many famous people to meet, and lots of art to view. Come one, come all and enjoy! Get a seat in the top row if you can as it is the best for viewing and for the breeze.
