I’ll head down in a bit and check it out. Confirmed sighting of a Hoonigan dude picking up 1,000 drinks from Starbucks on Chippewa a few minutes ago. :tup: ---

> [@2TurboZ](#): > > Did you realize that the easy way or the hard way? Easy way fortunately, lol. - - - Updated - - - OK so I’m seeing some bootlegs on social media right now but nothing really worth going down there to see. @BDR5oh does anyone know when they might jump the bridge? Maybe I’ll jet ski down the river and post up. ---

I drove around to all the bridges and it didn’t look like any were being setup for a jump, at least not today. Met up with @BIG_E and watched a bit of it. @Xander was there too. I’ll post a few pics soon. - - - Updated - - - ![http://www.nyspeed.com/pictures/chopper.jpg](http://www.nyspeed.com/pictures/chopper.jpg) ---

I was right there when they set it down … pretty amazing pilot skills … I was also thinking the jet wash was gonna be worse than it was - - - Updated - - - If anyone is planning on checking this out via water … your best bet is to launch by like small boat harbor … and stay inside the break wall and you’ll catch a great view of tomorrow’s action ---

Fire dept and EMS headed there for a car in the water as we speak. That’s not good. ---

I was up there around 3 watching some donuts. Not many people around until after 5pm. > [@stuiephoto](#): > > Fire dept and EMS headed there for a car in the water as we speak. That’s not good. There was a fenced area blocking the area they were to the water. The helicopter was close to it with the Raptor. Just looked at pics, the fence was down in back. ---
