Default Rolling burnout trumps wheelie

Hey, he instigated it so puppy kicking was justified.

Don't know yet, and tracks are closed for the year. I'll be rolling on big n mediums next spring when it reopens: I'm aiming for high 10's on motor, but that's all in the 60' times. Nitrous will not be for the track, just roll races where guys don't want to dig race me.

Yep. Though I wouldn't pick a go-pro but would go with my contourHD due to small size (this bike was the first guy ever to see it) great battery life (up to 18 hours) without using the car adapter and you can use a Ipad? Iphone? to control it thru bluetooth - including live feed viewing. I wish I had known it was coming out with that option before buying my now-last-gen ContourHD. Get a couple 32gig miniSD cards and record a weeks worth of 1080p then reformat on the weekend if nothing worthwhile is recorded. Dead simple.

I'd take my chances in a dig race against a average rider on a RS4 when it's warmer out, but not when it's 40 degrees outside and on slightly damp ground. A car just can't match a bikes ability to get traction in almost any conditions, even rain.
