awesome read. intersting to know how much money some people spend on (meaningless to others) self directed dreams. kind of inspiring in a way.

Mmm, I'm not sure about that. Yeah it's cool and that, but that's pretty farkin' dangerous to do on a public road.

Oh well... Be even more fun to do in Australia, straight through the middle, coast to coast. Hellllo 300kmph+. Haha.

At the end it's talking about a different attempt. With a different copilot. And they made it

yeah i think they went over like 3-4 attempts. if you skip to the bottom its talking about the last run, where they broke the record by like an hour and 4 min
