The aircraft is a Bulldog. Never heard of it before but that's what it had
painted on the fuselage and what the commentator kept calling it.

He got really low a few times on Saturday. At one point he aborted a rolling
maneouver as he was going to smack the ground (he was about 30-40ft up at
best).

Yep, Jim LeRoy was the pilot and that site explains it all. A highly
modified Pitts.
