Nice. That's nose in the wind and ears back!

What kind of speed did you carry through the kink?


I was slow in the kink, but got a little faster each time.

I am testing a data system so I have some pretty good numbers.

Looks like my fastest in the kink was 101, but I never even came close to pushing it there. I am going to try something different and see if I can go through 115-120.

When you do, make sure you chinch your harnesses extra tight and have your arm restraints on right! :)

lol, yeah I am going to just try it and see what happens.

;)

Build UP to 110+. At 100 there was no drama at all and plenty of track out.
