Cool stuff - nice video. *Was that done out near Gordon's Well?

Take your Taz down to Buttercup, go to Comp hill and over on the west side of the hill, there's a little flat ledge about 1/4 the way down from the top. *Drop over the top of the hill, hit the ledge on the throttle, fly about 1/3rd the way down the face of the hill. *The car will more or less float down once the air gets under the chassis. *Land, nail the throttle, jam through the whoops and then launch off the ridge down at the bottom where everyone sits and watches. * I was getting about 10 to 12 feet of air under the wheels and flying about 85 - 90 feet out into the flats.

You can thank me for the front upper shock mount design, as I was able to show Neil that the original setup wasn't quite up to snuff (I had Taz #5). *Man that was fun!!! - oh, wear a neck collar/donut if you decide to do this more than a couple times. *I couldn't hold my head very easily up the next day...
