California-based Lloyd Hamilton has long been associated both with the sport of air racing and with the Hawker Sea Fury. Furias was built up from the components of a number of Sea Fury airframes and a 2833-kW (3,800-hp) R-4360 radial and the propeller of a Douglas A-1 Skyraider installed in place of the stock Centaurus engine and propeller. Qualifying at over 400 mph at Reno in 1985, over the years various modifications have been incorporated, including a turtledeck, but victory continues to elude this unique razor-back Fury. Furias is flown in a colour scheme of red with the upper fuselage and the rear portions of the inner flying surfaces in gold.
