It was a really sweet day.
Its funny how I been DSing my ass of for the last 9 years and it all came together for a brief 20 seconds where the hill did a nice cycle and I was able to string a dozen good laps together.
I dont doubt that before the year is out a few of us will be knocking on 300mph. Expecially Joel with a D80 on the way and Roger who has a MCT on the way. These boys are hungry and have the skills it takes to keep the record moving up.

Congrats Mick!! Awesome flying and very well deserved. So good to see the record moving again. You have now moved Australia up into second place behind the US. 300 is just around the corner!! Sounds like the wings were fairly bendy. Stoked for you mate  . Can't believe how far Joel has come in a short span of time and same goes for Roger who must be stoked with two(maybe 3) world records for airframe speeds. Eric |
