Yeah, I was holding the camera in the lane and had to stand up and watch out for the bike doing a burnout right behind me. Then I lost where the boards were when I turned back around.

You are the LS1 KING!!!!!! What's even more impressive is that you did all this yourself - from putting it together (I'm sure you had SOME help) to driving it! Awesome!
