from another forum:




Here is a dialougue that I love from my cousin, my dad, and myself last summer.

As a backround story, I always tell my dad how everyone grabs for the O-shit handle on thier first ride.

"Dad after arriving after giving older cousin a ride- Did he do it?
Me- Yep
Cousin- Do what?
Me- Grab the safety handle
Cousin- Oh IDK man, I was to busy trying not to shit all over your seats.
Dad and I- LOL
Cousin- Seriously, my Gf's dad has a Porsche I thought was fast, that was nothing compared to this."

General friends- Im not riding in that thing again, it scares the shit outta me.
-Your third is like my first

All Motor and V8 guys- How do you make so much power and get 30mpg?
