“Len says”
Team Technician Lenny Rulason is an expert when it comes to the machine’s that make the Red Bull Air Race the exciting sport it is.
Read Lenny’s thought’s on Matt’s MXS-R and the engine that powers it.
The Aircraft
The MXS-R race plane is a great aircraft, it has many assets from the all carbon construction airframe which is very light weight, strong and easy to maintain to being a very competitive race plane and cross country flying machine at the same time. The MX factory gives us all the support and help we need to be as competitive as we can with the MXS-R for the 2010 race season.
The Engine
The IO540 race engine from LY-CON Aircraft Engines is also an essential piece of race equipment for us at Matt Hall Racing. Ken and his engine specialist have helped us put together a great engine with all the power and torque we will need to be competitive for the 2010 race season.
