I feel like when i am in a really focus it is not super mentally exhausting, even for a 1 hour nitro final.
Interesting. I generally see it like this for you:

Mouth open = Completely focused.
Mouth closed = Less focused.

On another note, please tell me you keep all of your tools, parts, etc. rolled up in a towel (hobo-style) when you leave the off-road track. I see another potential Gravity RC product in the making.

Congrats on the baby! Glad to hear all is well.
