red bull air race

pretty cool event went down on the detroit river this weekend. if you have never seen one, i recommend making a visit to a red bull air race. i had seen footage on youtube and tv before, but let me be the first to say that it does the event and the action involved no justice. the sound of the planes, the announcers, the helicopters, it all mashes into a rad experience. thanks to AMD and the mid-west red bull folks for taking care of me this weekend! check out the pics below... enjoy

beautiful day, smoke on



little too close

red bull has a guy who flies his helicopter upside down... not sure how this fits into the laws of physics.
