If 80 mph doesn't seem fast to you try it on a skate board.

You just brought back nightmares of massive speed wobbles when i was a kid...they never ended good
I used shopping cart front wheels on the rear of a wooden go-cart when I was a kid.
Little did I know that those wheels cause the back end to kick around when you steer.

True... it's all relative...
Some people think 100 mph is fast on a highway...
Some people have bikes that will do 100+ mph in first gear...
Some people pilot fighter jets over the speed of sound...
Some people have been in the space shuttle...

Damn I must have watched this movie 100 times... still love it. Look for the cameo by a young Tony Hawk (driving the Pizza Hut truck).
Just tighten the trucks Yabbo!

last winter i had a party at my house and at about 2 Am we got the great idea to go sleding...
...i lived over a mile up a windy dirt road in the woods on top of a hill, the road was covered with snow so we tied a 10 foot rope to the back of an suv and attached a tube...i didn't make it around one of the corners and flew into the woods when the suv was going 45... i hit some small trees and got pretty banged up but i still did better than some other people
Thanks chuck. But I want to see Doc doing this.

I had my first fall off a skateboard (long board rather) when I was 26+1!!
My friend put me on a long board and said go down a hill and was telling me how to turn. Slam I went. Stopped there since I had an interview the next day would be hard to explain a 26 year old Grad student falling off a skateboard!

That's called feedback.If 80 mph doesn't seem fast to you try it on a skate board.
A man who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself. - John Stuart Mill
