This was cool. Robbie Knievel at KI
 

Saturday he will attempt the whole 24 trucks. Tonight he started at 8, 10, 12 and finally the fifteen he jumped here http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fu...deoID=34720745

They moved the ramp to the 24 length and he made some practice runs but it was getting dark at 9pm.

Anyhow, I watched him make about 20 jumps each distance 4-5 times. One time at the 15 truck length he landed really steep on the top of the ramp and almost lost it.

Nothin but a helmet, Jeans and a t-shirt for safety. No Tach or Speedometer.

Can't make Sat, Look for vids as soon as sunday but they won't be mine.

Chuck, I believe Evel's 1975 record there was 15 busses. This practice ties that length. He'll jump 24 trucks saturday at 7pm at Kings Island.

That was way cool. Question is, Did you actually see it?
Thanks for posting that BTW.
Chuck, Who found the excitement of Robbies jumps grew every time they increased distance. This full jump on saturday will be about 240ft
