LOL!

Seems you folks had another blast!

I'd like to see a photo of damaged bricks though.

I hope to get around making the write-up of the first SweULV someday, but since
we had ours in mid December I'm still clear of the "being slower then Brendan"
danger.

We also had the problem with too short rooms, instead of lowering the ramp (it
never crossed our minds and the speed was the fun part) we decided that the
vehicle that bounced furthest against the wall won that event... We had one
fortunate bounce where the driver stayed licked against the wall but the
vehicle travelled far back into the room, all but the builder laughed
hysterically. Next time I think we'll install a ramp in the other side of the
room too. Lowering the ramp and thus the speed is not an option :)

Best regards,
