Awwww man I wished I could make this contest!
Now this is what I call SSC combat! Super Sonic Combat
I hope you guys get some video and post it online!

You would notice very little difference from any other Open B contest. Steve's choker with a .25FX on Ultrathrust will push 100 mph. My choker, with 64" ripstop covered wings and .25/ Ultrathrust was in the the low to mid 80's. I think most every Open B ship is flying at or near the 80-85 mph mark. More than likely you won't see the Jett powered choker fly in our contest. While speed is nice to have, the shorter wing gives up turning ability and streamer grabbing potential. I would rather have the longer wing, better turning, slower ship any day.

It sure is fun to rip around with the 120mph choker though!
