Wow, that was nuts. That is a super fast part of the track too. That dudes is really lucky, I wonder if he particpates in track sessions anymore. I'd think twice after that.

Wow.

Yikes! That was way better than all of those "stare at it until something jumps out at you" pictures people like to post links to.

Definately a wake up call, bad juju can happen even at casual HPDE's...
