I tried coming up with a new route after you took the gold here, but that 3rd flag seemed so out of the way no matter which way I tried. I just couldn't see the wheel hook opportunity!
@Lee and Tyler: I've been working on this level for several days now. I can't find any scenario where a stall drop at the end is faster. You have to slow down too much and stretch to grab the finish flag. If the finish flag were moved to the right just a bit, it might be faster to drop.
