  • That Duke is a bit quick! Worth mentioning that Rutter is basically doing an exhibition lap (part of an old PB test) - he's going quick but not full beans by any measure. It's shocking as you get to see the speedo. For reference, that's a 123mph average lap - the lap record, held by Peter Hickman is an utterly mindboggling 135mph!

    Check this out...he gives commentary too.

  • It's really pretty absurd.

    You'd be fair to assume they're all just bombastic thrill seekers, but from the way him and others speak, they all have a very real and humbled awareness of how ludicrous this all is.

    The section where he reiterates that it took him weeks to learn how to go flat out in a section really got to me. Weeks of work on a single section. It's commitment and learning.

    Much salute.
