Default Berm-A Shave (Thunderhill repave, pt. 2)

Got back up there today, almost all of those 4" killer kurbs have been mowed down. Hard to tell exactly how they are v. the old tried-and-true pre-repave ones as we ran the track backward. Made for an interesting day, as most of us had not done that for a couple of years. Found out the Radical won't go flat over the hill into 9 (from 10, remember) and brake so well at on the crest............

That's great to hear! Thanks for the update, Ken. GGR runs TH on the 20th in the CCW direction.

I really have a hard time with T9 in the CW direction. CFRA will running TH in the CW direction in October.

Take an SM out, you won't have to bother with brakes pretty much anywhere.

And I found out you can go flat over the crest into the entry of 9, and brake on the downslope with a Radical (but you probably saw that over on PDC, I'm just throwing it in here for anyone else who cares to ponder the thought of that.........my bravery pales in comparison to DJ.)

Totally blind over the top!

I don't think I will try that in my car.
