    Of course, we shall measure this upon that crucible of comparison... the ski jump. See the attached image for the competitors and the video for the result! :D

    Place your votes before watching the full video or reading the posts below. Let's see who guesses correctly. ;)

    Not sure it was really fair given the one I voted for broke the jump. >_>

    Anyone with experience in karting has got to pick either 1st or 2nd place right, or sell their stuff and go home.

    Congratulations! :D

    However, I think tervuren and I would have been correct if the ramp had been stronger. ;)

    All the best,
    Andrew.
