Ozone Rush - My First Day  starstarstarstarstar
My mate brought along the Ozone Rush, 150 hrs, luvly condition. Does a few SATs, spirals, b-lines and handed it over to me. The conditions were very strong,...

Ozone Rush 2  starstarstar
The Ozone Rush 2 is faster, as you'd expect, than the Mojo. Full stalls easily, SATs nicely. Launching is not too hard. That's about all I can say so far....
