I thought he did pretty good for a redneck rocket engine guy. Hard to do practice runs with that jet engine on those sites and tune up your jump? And this was the 70’s and early 80’s. Going down a straight track is a whole different game than figuring how to jump a gap fairly precisely for the takeoff and landing. Not much room for error, as he found out.
