They're all the same. Basically you can get away without getting caught by already having your rig on (Slider down, 46" PC, expect to take 20+ seconds freefall to clear the overhangs) in your car. As soon as the bus full of old codgers arrive have your ground crew honk an air horn at the opposite end of the parking lot. Wait 30 or 40 seconds for them to turn their heads (codgers are annoyingly slow - like Welshmen but without the sheep) then run off the edge while they're distracted.

You need to grit your teeth and take a solid 20 or it's all for naught.

Good luck;)

PS if you bump into Jochen, the rollerblading German butt-sniper give him my regards. I left him at the top of the North trail but he may have made his way back down to Phantom ranch to solicit some new blood by now.:o
$kin.
