A civilian, Unlimited Reno Air Racer - based on T-2 wings and tail was proposed during the late 20 th century. They planned to power it with a large, American radial engine. The plan was to start with flying surfaces designed for 500 mph, then build a new fuselage. I doubt if it got beyond the "collecting parts" stage and no sketches were published. It would have joined Tsunami and the Pond Racer as a new class of new-built unlimited racers. Money is the biggest limitation to all these projects.
