Default Hot wheels loop de loop

I was driving on the 5fwy and saw what looked like Hot Wheels orange track on the El Toro air field over the last week or so. Never had my camera with me though. It was a double loop set up for the X-Games. It is gone now, moved it to the X games location.

Boost, because sometimes atmospheric pressure just isn't enough.

I was surprised at how slow they did this. I was watching, and thought they where gonna stop roll back, and go again.

G force. That's a tight loop and if they went too fast the G forces might make them pass out. That's my guess anyway.

Yep, Tanner almost didn't make the ramp because of it.
