Windy days with p3

[JohnnyD913]

Does anyone else ever get bored and decide on very windy days to clock top speeds?
I keep it vlos and under 400 feet.
I will fly into a headwind our about 500-1,000 ft.
Turn 180 back with wind, switch to atti, and let her rip..
I managed 51 mph today with a record years ago of 74mph..

and the purpose is? ?
I'd rather get to fly another day but then at 82 my reckless days are over?

I was at a friend's house today to take a few more picture of fall leaves. I didn't think the wind was too bad today. I turn it around to go with the flow and topped 60 mph. Whoo I was flying. LOL

I was up maximum height, to see if an old dirt road, still crossed over the hill. Up there I was at tree tops. I turn it around and caught a jet stream off the top of the hill.
