Worked great. I'm not sure the truck has ever gone that fast, I must have had it up to 50, I was really flying. It was a great day. http://rides.webshots.com/photo/2915342550106367558ZbCAsN | | | | | Joined: Dec 2002 Posts: 2,549 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2002 Posts: 2,549 | | | | | | Joined: Jan 2008 Posts: 4,961 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jan 2008 Posts: 4,961 | It looks good. But you must remember that it is a truck. I'm sure that it has seen a lot more than 50 coming off of a hill to get a run at the next hill. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2004 Posts: 29,803 Kettle Custodian (pot stirrer) | | Kettle Custodian (pot stirrer) Joined: Feb 2004 Posts: 29,803 | I'm sure that it has seen a lot more than 50 coming off of a hill to get a run at the next hill. We used to call that little procedure a "Georgia Overdrive"! Jerry

Not sure it is the long term finish. | | |
