Glad you got videos, but you had to see it in person. That was pretty scary watching from the 330' mark. Swore it was going over!
Glad you made it after busting your tail to get there.

Thanks for all of the video and kind words. I will pass on the wheelie contest though. The damage was minimal and I made two more passes a couple hours later.
