Amped Up

Well...Miami's in the books.  Two laps - 1 on Saturday and 1 on Sunday.  Sunday's time was actually better than Saturday (2 hours 45 to 2 hours 40 on Sunday).  We had intended to use Sunday to have fun and do a lot of recording, but that idea kind of got blown out of the water by us getting there a little late and just making it onto the course.  We'll save that story for another post, though.

Not the best picture, but here's Brian's shoe

One of the big takeaways from this weekend was the fact that the electrical events were much more charged up than they have been in the past.  Both Electric Eel and Electroshock Therapy shocked us much worse than they had in the past.  In fact, on Saturday Electroshock Therapy actually drove all three of us to our knees (twice for me) and Brian got zapped right out of his shoe.  Unfortunately, there's no video of that as we all went through together, but we did get video of Electric Eel on Sunday, which tagged each of us pretty badly. 

Here's Brian:

Here's Patrick:

In each of these cases, you'll be able to hear the zaps, and some choice words (for which I apologize).  The lesson we learned is that the electrical events are not to be taken lightly anymore.
