Part of any
competitive endeavor is “The Record”.
Longest, shortest, fastest, slowest, records come in all types and sizes.
In racing, records
are kept for events and for accomplishments. There are record lap speeds at Reno, and cross country speed
records. Our own Bruce Hammer is holder of one such record, Transcontinental Eastbound, Class C-1.b.
This page will document
Sport Air Racing League records for absolute speeds in class.
Records are held by SARL members only, using speeds captured at SARL-sanctioned
races. Documents verifying speeds (race results) will be reviewed by the Chairman after each sanctioned
race, and when SARL points are awarded, any records set or broken will be updated and announced.
