Achieving a spectacular showing in the 2018 Reno Air Races, Lancair Legacy and Super Legacy models set the pace for the rest of the class, winning Gold, Silver, Bronze and Medallion first place finishes. Andrew Findlay, with a 402.716 MPH finish in his 750 hp Super Legacy, "One Moment" won the John Parker Memorial Gold Race.

Legacy pilot Ernie Sutter, in "Just Pass'n Thru" took the honors in Silver, at a speed of 288.985 MPH, followed by Japanese pilot Chiwami Takagi-Read in "Legacy", winning the Bronze at 273.801 MPH.
