HP numbers are good and all, but they are like asking someone how much they can bench. What difference does it make if I can still kick your ass?

Technically it's a Jew-fro. Which I think you'd understand:



As for the hippie comment; I'll let it slide . . . this time.

I was wondering how long it would take someone to notice that pic from 1979. I could actually write a book about my adventures in the summer of '79.........

Before you get crazy, you might wanna remember I hit that wall ~60 with nothing more than a lap belt and didn't get knocked out. Just saying........

I once did a swan dive off the bridge in front of Universal ampither into about 18 inches of water. To re-enact properly, fill up a kiddie pool on your drive way and dive into it . . . from your roof. I didn't get knocked out either, but you might notice my nose is crooked. My friend who followed me . . . not so lucky.

So, in conclusion, you and me have similar awesome taste in hair style, tough, and not so bright probably. . . . but I can drive. Or at least I've never crashed into a loading dock.

EDIT: I just read the reason for said incident. Yikes! BTW, this is why ya'lls be signing a little release of liability form to drive RX-Snake.

The AC hoses were tied up to the export brace with zipties. A couple of them broke and the hoses dropped down just enough to interfere with the throttle linkage. I couldn't get the accelerator to move. When it did, it pushed past the hose to WOT. The hose wouldn't allow the linkage to return. I hit that loading dock wall ~60 MPH.
I'm no CSI, but I don't see any skid marks from brakes or sliding. And judging by the angle of the car, did you jump over the parking stops and hit that wall straight on?

Skid marks from the brakes are on the pavement in the parking lot, Yup, flew right into that wall.
