PTW Buggy gets into the 100km/h Club
Well young Wexler Muse, the previous PTW buggy record holder now has a new target to break.
Wexlers outstanding 58.30mph was finally broken today by Tom aka RedSkyHorizon using the Dominator 4, he managed 62.60mph just over the 100km/h
barrier. A very proud day for me.
Tom rides extremely hard in ridiculous conditions, his PB is 66mph, he has ridden his buggy in winds gusting to almost 80mph, I would say he is
fearless, but he informs me he does get very scared.
PTW Dominator does a 100km/h
About RSH and his extreme high wind buggying
So Wexmeister, you have the buggy, you have the wheels, you have the ability, you have the location, fly safe, listen to your Dad, have fun.....then
break the PTW record again

Congrats Carl and Tom. I love watching his videos! Putting kites up when others including my self would not even consider it. He's a mad man!
Glad to see you buggies getting the job done! You are still an inspiration to most!

I told Wexler about this and he said "hmmm". I think in teenage speak, that means he will consider it a new goal to reach. He's also asking me about
the records for tandem 1 and 2 kite runs. We have the awesome tandem connection from XXtreme. It fits the PTW perfectly. To be
continued.................... Oh, and congrats to RSH. Job well done!

Thanks all.
The butterfly effect -
I head out on a wet 'n' windy day and set a new speed for a PTW bug. 24 hours later a teenager half way around the world says "hmmm"
Go for it Wexler but be safe
