You guys are right. You have to be on your game and be in control to go fast
on the dirt. Not much room for mistakes, weather your going 150 or 250.
As for me, my right hand goes right to the chute handle right after I punch
in high gear, when I see the ballons, I am sooo.. ready to pull it.
Imagine my dismay 2 years ago, thats right,in Sept. I hung the laundry and
didn`t feel it hit. By the time I figured it out I was deep into the shutdown area.
204 threw the lights and about 150 out the back door boiling the brake fluid.
Scary, yes. Stupid, yes, Should have cleaned the teather and the rest of the
pilot better after B-Ville that year. Sombody could have gotten hurt.
I think about a year or so ago J D and some others were having people pop
their chutes in tech in Sept. Not a bad idea.
