Remember when Spam Can was in this colorful scheme? This was at El Toro in 1996.

Ah, the "Phoenix 500" air races. I still remember the last moments of the Super Corsair.......

I remember seeing the video of the SC going in. Truly tragic.

I think its time to see a new Super Corsair II though.

They used to have what was left of the Super Corsair sitting in a pile in POF's yard. It was not a very big pile. :shock:

I was standing in the pits with Chuck Hall watching the race, and we watched it go in. Then I saw it later, in the bed of a small pickup.
