The business end of the Hawker Sea Fury T.20 "Dreadnought" (NX20SF). The plane is powered by a Pratt & Whitney R-4360 Wasp Major, a 4362.5cu in (71.5l), 4300hp (3200kW), a 28-cyl 4-row radial engine. Dreadnought has raced at Reno since 1983. In recent decades it took a backseat to planes such as Rare Bear, Strega, & Dago Red, but with the retirement(?) of those planes Dreadnought leaped ahead to win several of the last races at Reno.
