Voodoo is a highly modified North American P-51 Mustang that was the 2013, 2014 and 2016 Unlimited-class champion of the Reno Air Races and is the current holder of the piston power aircraft speed record of 531.64 mph, breaking the 528.33 mph record set by Rare Bear on August 21, 1989.  Delivered in 1944, this Mustang managed to survive separate three crashes before a 1988 restoration and a new career in racing.  Voodoo is now part of the Planes of Fame Air Museum collection.  Nikon D500 w/Tamron 150-600mm.
