....they only made 10's for pussies not game enough to ride 12's

All 10's should come with a pink helmet and a cute kitten...

12's were made so the older and fatter people who couldnt handle a 10 had something to stroke themselves about

I think frog is a prime example!

right Mick

in summary........
1st run was 199.94, return run n/a was 193
2nd run was into a 10 mph headwind on spray* 197, coming back was 206!
2 way average of 203 mph!

awesome
stock engine (but no can)
spray* = nitrous

large distances...quickly
oh yeah

cheers
