Mooney Zoom speed trial ?

[Austintatious]

I see this listed on the events in the add for the MooneyMax in longview on Donmaxwell.com 

The curious kitty in me wants to know what it is and my friend google isnt helping.

So.... what is a Zoom speed trial?

I spoke with Paul about this last month while they were still planning the event. Mooney owners are always talking about the speed they get out of their birds. He thought it would be fun to categorize Mooney's by model and have a point A to point B speed trial to see whose was the fastest. I agreed that it would be fun to have a little friendly competition amongst other Mooney drivers. Plus, it gives us another excuse to fly...lol.

Cool, good thing I am buying a rocket!

Buying a Rocket puts you in good company...

But, what you do with the Rocket will make you stand out...

Seeing if Byron is aware of this event... @jetdriven

A fast race horse is only as good as it's jockey.  Same for a Mooney.  Better brush up on skills.  But will be a lot of fun.  Man!  What bragging rights!  My understanding is Jolie is flying Maggie from California to compete.

So many details. How is scoring performed? Aircraft classes?
