In the intersections out in the country where they pave the road and when they pave the other road they pave over that intersection again over a couple decades you get a jump. There used to be a good one at Arlington and county line road on Indys south side . You'd go over that at 70 and you could feel the front tires lose contact with the ground . The great thing though is that it was a smooth landing. Almost like a landing ramp . Now that there is an entrance to I-65 , they have fixed the intersection .

My Pop. 10,000 barrier as a child theory is doing REALLY good here!

I don't recall ever being caught but I do break it frequently!

You mean something like this...

My Roadmaster is going to go out with a bang. I plan on spraying it with Nitrous, getting some hang time, and lots of general beating. 230,000 on it now, figure it will get me to the salt flats at least one more time maybe twice? Want to put 250,000 miles on it then kill it a slow death!

Good to know.

So I guess 30-40 years is a safe interval.

the only thing with no statute of limitations is killing a person.

must occur within view of officer, no cop no stop. Of course, that requires no harm.... harm, usually a year or 3.

of course, be blatant enough and have it on video then "play stupid games, win stupid prizes."

SBG (or any other barrister preseht) what IS the statute of limitations on blatant willful traffic violations?

Yes I have, all 4 wheels left the planet. Wasn't my car either.

Right about now PDub is really regretting confessing he'd never flown a car....

RJR, why wouldn't you write the stories? Just change or withhold the names and locales to protect the guilty . . . .

Fixed it. You miss so many humor possibilities.

O.K., but I REALLY need a nap.

A quickie though. Scarlet D-150s with warmed over small blocks, big tires and chrome stacks jump real good. I miss my Lil' Red Express. No one memorable flight though, but SAME factory for sure!

And let's keep it stories, not lectures and this isn't a contest..... well not officially.
