I saw this in the back of the most recent flying magazine and it has to be one of the coolest aircraft I have ever seen.  It's a custom built racer, that can go over 200 mph with only a 180 HP engine, and cruise up to 20,000 ft at 10.0 gph.  I want one, just thought I'd share. Grin Wink

Nice find, probably a whole lot cheaper for relatively similar performance.  I still like the look of the Polen Special though, it just looks fast. Grin Wink
