Thery might raise the suspension a tad ... ;)
Most excellent show and lift-off though ... ver' ver' impressive.
That launch had to be fake though?
Strike that. I see it was actually Europe's largest non-commercial launch! I'd just assumed it was a fake!
One of the software alpha geeks at work was involved in both the top gear rocket stunts.

It looked real to me, if it was fake then someone has bloody good sfx! Right now, where's mi duct tape..................
It was for real. The bloke at work does the software & some of the electronics for amateur rocketry - they had a large rocket out at Black Rock in the US a while ago trying for the UK altitude record.
