Challenge: The Hoops of DOOM

[Jon144]

Your Challenge is Simple. Fly through the Hoops of DOOM! And SURVIVE!

I don't really think that there is any more to this challenge. The faster you go the more bragging rights that you will have! It's not that hard with enough practice but difficult and fun enough to be a challenge. Take your piloting ability and finesse to it's limits as you fly through these giant metal rings. Will you survive?!

Hint: You will need to park the plane you're using beside the runway before loading the hoops. That or rig it to sit on the launchpad.

Done.  Drove the rings off into the grass so I could use the runway. 369 m/s but could tweak for faster.

 

Edit: I don't do planes.

I've downloaded this...Jeb locked himself in the bathroom.

I will let you know how it went as soon (tm) as I break him out.

Were these left over from the Kerbal Kwuidditch World Kup?

Bah!  What is this slowly I hear about?

Challenge Part 2: How many actively firing SRBs (not Separatrons) can you fit through the rings at once?

5 in this case.  Jeb is a little upset that I didn't plan for any way to recover him if he actually succeeded.

I freely confess I may have gotten a little obsessed with this.  Moar SRBs and Jeb insisted that he must survive the mission.  Made a nice little ejection seat for him that worked at least 20% of the time.
