I saw the jump. I am glad I recorded it. They made this last way too long. almost 2 hours of show and he only jumps after 90+ minutes. All the while they try to explain to the non-expert crowd that it's really hard to jump that far and that he actually "flies" his motorcycle, like a jet fighter, you know (computer animation used to prove the point).
Anyway, his jumps were truly impressive. He only broke the record on the first one, 322' and 7/16 if I remember correctly, over 12' better than the last.
And his bike looked and sounded like a KTM 2-stroke to me, but I may be wrong. It was modded in an interesting manner, with the radiator behind, to minimize drag.
I guess he had a bit of a hard time getting to full speed. Also the wind gave him a bit of a hard time. He has the potential to beat the 350 mark, no doubt.
Oh yes, the guy one crazy Aussie.
Happy new year.
