I average around ~250 max on escapes; my top speed grab was a legit over 1000 sanics somehow; I rocketed off something, just about died, and flew halfway across the map. I think someone shot me at the perfect time and I narrowly avoided death, while taking a huge speed boost.
Raindance?
There's a collision bug somewhere at the tower, edge of the entrance or edge of the tower itself, not entirely sure. I manage to hit it sometimes because one of my flag routes seems to have the optimal angle for it. If you hit it, next thing you know you are in the stratosphere. I managed to land without dying ONCE from that height, and only barely so. But it makes for a really great escape - pretty much you are gone from the map for 30 seconds or so until you're back down in shrike range.
Edit: I'd really like to play with some of you guys. 
silvershot10 on Steam, might show up as Kirfkin
T:A isn't a Steam game. But add me in T:A as Balanuir then you can see where I play if I play and join in.
