Hello Mike -- I am (as usual) clueless!
So I need more clues!!
Isn't it usually me giving the quizzes?

Am I incredibly dense? Why do I not understand this?

It's OK Mudge, it's just kinda one of those motor guy thing is all--- too much Merlin blood and hydro oil I guess!?!?!?

Mudge -- don't feel bad -- I'm confused too! Of course that's a fairly normal state for me.
Engine builders' minds work in strange and wonderful (?) ways -- us mere mortals just have to try to follow along, somehow
Mike -- I'm surprised too actually -- I was thinking maybe Dana, though Dilgard doesn't seem very Viking. It's actually Piggy Sue that had me going. I also looked at 1993 and managed to read 2003, which left me even more confused (Like I said, a normal state for me).
Anyhow, I don't have a clue where that slide might be at this point. My files are still in considerable chaos after our move West (even though the move was a year ago, LOL) and the Pegasus stuff is still MIA. I know it's here somewhere, but...
So after confusing Mudge and me, you still don't get your picture, yet.

Well, I found my Piggy Sue file -- of course the shot you're thinking of isn't in it! Must be in my Strega-Barrow file, or my race people file, or ... well you get the idea...
Here's one of the three of you plus Del -- funny how Mr. Williams always manages to make normal-sized people look little!

How's this for a Ridge Runner III shot -- 2005 Gold Race from pylon 5, with Dan gaining fast...
Wonder how fast that stock-canopy Mustang was moving at that point?

Here's the first lap -- Dan Martin high (well, for him at least). We need more Mustangs out there, Sparrow!

This year will be my first trip to the Reno Air races. I can't wait! I am hitting Reno, KOSH, Gathering of Mustangs, TOM, Chino, and maybe the Spruce Goose Museum. It is going to be a heck of a summer.

Now that sounds like a great summer! You will love Reno -- truly nothing else on this planet quite like it...

Yep. Reno is, in my opinion, without a doubt the best aviation event out there.
