Whats interesting is that he is still rolling when this photo was taken. Check out the upward deflected aileron on the left wing.

Wow, that is really irresponsible. He's not only inches from killing himself, there are others around he could kill (the photog) and $100+ million aircraft he could destroy.

Mike,
With all due respect SHUT THE FVCK UP! Give credit where it's due - the Toro driver is doing what he has been trained to do.He's going the speed o heat at low level. I for one choose to applaud him
and say "Yea Baby Bellisima Pass" do it again
Peter

I guess that's either some seriously good flying or a very lucky pilot!
