Those puny trims they installed are going to be trying hard I bet but from the looks of that test there is enough extra speed haha, NOTHING to worry about. It hit the MCBR with enough speed to get airtime off the backside of it.

The need for speed is NOT a habit nor occupation, It's an Addiction!

Wow right now the back row looks like it would be quite the stomach punch coming off the midcourse. The helix might have some force after all!

So excited for this thing.

I remember watching Diamondback's first tests and they didn't seem near as fast, but I guess that can be chalked up to freezing weather, compared to just slightly above freezing weather.

I'm going to time it from crest to brakes next time.
