Sometimes it takes a while to recognize just how hard some of our brethern work at their hobby, and just how bright they have become from years of effort. The European speed guys simply live in their own niche within our hobby, and prove to the world each year just how good they are. On this side of the pond, our go fast efforts usually end in go fast and turn left around he pylons and we do get up around 200mph flat, level and around turns. Their birds are all special one off designs intended to dive-stay togeather on pull out and scoot across the radar at around 250mph and up. I doubt if their specialized birds could stay 10-15' from the ground around 600' spaced pylons and maintain the 250 mph, CAUSE THEY ARE NOT DESIGNED TO DO THIS. When this guy talks about speed, I respectfully listen, and copy it all, and stick it in his file among several other Euro go fast guys. We have one thing in common in this area and thats engines, fuel, props and the desire to be better than the rest. With all that said, I will shut up before what I am trying to say becomes something not intended, by you and everyone else here that I also have great respect for in addition to the desire of outrunning each and everyone.
