-in my Moyes Litespeed LS4

Everyday the 90 competitors and crew would drive 1.5 hours out of Brazils capital city to launch and fly a 2-4 hour, 80-150 kilometer course, and then later RACING across the goal line in the heart of the capital city, Brasila. Amazing big-AIR event with great people involved, on and off the ground.
