Race Your Own Line

Song Background/Inspiration

A flat-out flight anthem for the 2026 Air Race Classic, written for the all-women crews who fly the route across the country to the finish at Mt. Vernon, Illinois. Its heart is the thing that makes this race different: it is scored on a handicap, so you are not chasing the fastest plane, you are chasing your own best line. The verses lift off at dawn, the choruses open the throttle, and the bridge brings everyone home to a town waiting at the runway. It is about speed, but more about the spirit and freedom of getting there your own way.
