F-51D "Voodoo"

"The airframe that would become Voodoo came into the world in 1944 at North American Aviation’s Inglewood, California factory and was dispatched to the United States Army Air Forces, and from there went on to serve the Royal Canadian Air Force as a Mustang IV. A number of owners and a fatal crash ensued, the rebuild after the tragedy bringing the airframe to life as a racer in the 1980s. It first raced at Reno as #5, Voodoo, in 1998 where it finished in 1st place in the Unlimited Silver race with an average speed of 427.889 miles per hour. On September 2, 2017, pilot Steve Hinton, Jr. set a new 3-kilometer “absolute propeller driven piston-powered aircraft" record in Voodoo with a speed of 531.53 miles per hour over four consecutive passes. That’s .7 Mach – extraordinarily fast for a piston aircraft."
