It's dirty out here in the real world. What happens when those grooves get plugged up with mud, bits of glass & other tires and dead squirrels? But I'll admit, I do want the "Picyures to download".

Hey! A no-RUD landing!(Rapid Unplanned Disassembly) I think it did the transition back to vertical at a higher altitude than previous attempts. Too bad there was cloud cover and the video was not working.
