one of the guys I used to work with used to go to tractor pulls, he built a twin turbo ls1 based tractor...needless to say, he won the pull

You know..Ive gone 180 on a bike ( on the track ) 165 in a car, and if jet planes had a ride along I would go for it, but fast boats are the only thing that truly scares me, 70 in a jet boat is scary as crap!!...sounds like a fun engine thoough..^^^^

he next winter all the local motorcycle shops got into roadracing mopeds, we had tomos sprints breaking 55MPH..The best ever was 72 MPH, but she seized when the guy closed the throttle, I guess I ported it a little to far!!!
