Formula V Air Racing is a competitive motorsport where race pilots flying custom-built airplanes race one another around an aerial oval race course marked out with pylons. Formula V air races are held as a feature attraction at major airshows around the USA. The raceplanes can reach lap speeds of over 170 Mph.
