| Formula One aircraft are all powered by a Continental 0-200. The weights and sizes of every major engine part must be within stock limits. The cam profile and carburation are strictly controlled. Race aircraft must have 66 square feet of wing area, weigh at least 500 pounds empty, and have a fixed landing gear and fixed pitch propeller. The fastest Formula One aircraft can reach 250 mph on the 3.19-mile race course at Reno. Many Formula One aircraft are built by and maintained by the pilots that race them. |
