Sport Air Racing League Announces Schedule

2022 Races Announced, Open to All VFR Prop-Driven Aircraft

The 2022 Sunrise Cross Country Challenge has announced the schedule for the year, beginning with the first stop at Kaolin Airfield in Sandersville Georgia. Entries are completely open for the race series, which aims to promote open course air racing for experimental, production, and vintage military aircraft. All proceeds from the race will go to local charity. 2022 will see the return of a few air races that were put out of commission for a variety of reasons last year, like the returning Mark Hardin Memorial Air Race that was canceled last year so that the venue could undergo airport construction. The Hardin race will make its 11th appearance in the League.

It’s the first of the Rotax 912 series to use fuel injection technology, but the high-tech part of it only begins with the fuel injection.
