Did you ever find the info you were looking for about the Reno racer based on the Yak II, Czech-mate?
I am familiar with the builder, the late Bob Yancy, and some of his crew. The crew chief during the build was Ken Gooch, of Hi-tech Aero in Klamath Falls, Oregon, USA.
The plane was originally "Perestroika" when Bob had it. The best Bob ever did with it was a gold class third place at nearly 440 MPH. He was beaten by Strago and Dago Red I believe.
I watched it being built from the original, and contributed the paint that was on it at the time.
Bob hung one of his P&W 2800s from a Corsair on it.
