RACE - Canard Air Racing - A History of Racing Burt Rutan Designs, 1983-2005 is a pictorial history of the Air Race events held by the RACE -Rutan And Composites Enthusiasts covering the first event in 1983, through the last in 2005. It is a photo rich document with over 950 color photos, and features maps (aviation charts) of the events, and stories by some of the racers. Burt Rutan’s designs (or other Rutan inspired designs) that raced with us include the Varieze, Long-Ez, Cozy, Defiant, Quickie, and we were later had Glasairs, Lancairs, RVs, and Questair Ventures enter and compete in these closed course cross-country events. Burt came out to play on rare occasions in the early days of racing our amateur built aircraft. Some aircraft went on to race at Reno.
