The team at Matt Hall Racing is pumped to give you the chance to be Matt’s wingman!
The first ever Matt Hall Racing YouTube video competition is up and flying – to see more click here.
How it works
Every month from now until the end of the race season we will award a Matt Hall Racing gift pack of a hat, t-shirt and Team Guide for the video featuring Matt that the team thinks is the best of that month.
At the end of the year one of the monthly winners and one other entrant drawn at random will win a joy flight with Matt.
Make sure your video is between one and three minutes long and you send us an email to team@matthallracing.com to let us know you have loaded it to YouTube.
Good luck!!
**Joy flight prizes will be redeemed at Maitland airport in NSW. Winners will have to get their own transport to Maitland.
If last month was a busy one for Matt Hall Racing February has been even more so.
Matt has split his time with two freezing cold trips to the MX factory in North Wilkesboro, North Carolina and a dash across to Red Bull Air Race headquarters in snowy Salzburg, Austria for the annual pilots’ meetings.
The first trip to North Wilkesboro saw Matt’s new MX-S take to the air on its maiden voyage which was very exciting for Matt, Lenny and the crew at MX. Since then there have been a few of the usual challenges that come with a new engine and a new aircraft but after the Austrian sojourn things have really come along.
Fuelling up with snow in the background
The whole team has been with Matt and the plane for about a week now after Salzburg and it has been very beneficial with Matt starting to put some good hours into the plane and running in the engine well. Some tinkering here and some small mods there and things are on the up with just a few days to go before the aircraft is packed up for shipping to race one in Abu Dhabi.
Right before first flight
Sergey Rakhmanin, Alejandro Maclean and Adilson Kindlemann are also at the same factory and working very hard.
The meetings in Austria were intense but educational and had all the pilots and teams excited about what lay ahead.
Matt and Dave will be back in Australia next week for final preparations including our big season launch – keep your eyes out!
