diablopilot 2 #1 February 13, 2005 I got to play in "Frikken Insanity's" two way Tunnel Leauge competition tonight. WAY too much fun! Best of all for me is that it's not the pit one team against another type competition as it's kind of a round robbin for team mates. You change partners in the two ways each round, and at the ent you get an individual score. Forgot I could still turn points!---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freeflyTM 0 #3 February 13, 2005 from what i have heard, there use to be one in australia but it went bankrupt. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
op5e 0 #4 February 13, 2005 /start of hijack/ It is my understanding that there is someone who wishes to setup a wind tunnel in australia. Due to the housing market boom investers are hard to come by, but when that gets resolved they will build it and we will come. I do not see it will be something that will happen in the near future but crossing fingers it will happen. I am more than certain they did not go bankrupt. /end of hijack/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

op5e 0 #6 February 13, 2005 It is great to see you are having fun on a weather day. I am just starting to learn how to turn points, so you have one (well alot more than one) up from me. Glad to hear someone is having fun with wind between the knees. Also i would be interested in knowing how the scoring works. Is it just based on points or style as well ;) What happens if you head down on the matts do you get bonus points hehe. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
