Hey, at least he doesn't have far to fall! Looks like a lot of fun.

Nah, plenty of trees in the way to slow you down on that run...

Whats your estimate to his speeds? You have a bit more experience from about that point of view.

It's a bit hard to say; his camera is lower to the ground than the average helmetcam, and I'm usually looking at the tach rather than the speedo. I'm guessing he might be hitting 60-70mph at the fastest point on the descent, which from his point of view of pavement + 6 inches is going to look like Warp 7. :)

If you ever make it back here and have some time to hang out, we should take the kart out. I'm lapping the local 1.1 mile (12-turn) track at ~1:03, which with your ass half an inch above the pavement is quite a thrill.
