the carbon fiber is lighter dumb@#ss . . . he is probably flying "because" he blinged out with carbon fiber. Geeeezzzzz

Obviously he needs a bigger wing.

Default flying cabs

Thanks, Alex, I appreciate the kind comments!

And kudos to Dito Milian of GotBlueMilk.com for capturing the shot. For more, see http://gotbluemilk.com/web060424/742/index.html.

The gent who speculated that this picture was taken at the Thunderhill turn 5 bypass in the clockwise direction was spot on. The track is a blast in that direction, very tricky in spots. Don't know why it's not run that way more often.

Getting airborne is not difficult, you just have to carry enough speed over the crest and be pointed in the right direction. The picture following this one on the GotBlueMilk web site shows the factory rollover protection deployed. It goes "BANG" by the way

Robert.
