Looks a little NASCAR-ish to me. Is it a military demo team or an airshow team.

It's a normal F-16 that is specially paint and used now for demonstrations. About a few year it is gonna be in service again. The demo from last years is gonna be repaint to the normal color and than back to its squadron. The pilot is still the same as last year.

Last year they were in Nellis. Look to the old demo color on the pictures.

They didn't flew in that color. But here a vid of that show at Nellis.

Normally he used his flares, but i didn't see that on the vid.

I liked the black and silver job from a couple of years back, hope they visit RIAT this year, even if they have covered the 09 jet with wallpaper nicked from a Chinese restaurant.

Thanks Dutchy, RIAT is on there along with a few other UK dates, the Dutch F-16 is always very popular over here.
