How long before they're sticking their legs out of the window in the middle of air-time?

Not exactly elegant - like a rhino doing gymnastics. But I approve of such craziness.

Rhino gymnastics, I like it.

Last weekend we went to the Saratoga Auto Museum for a Corvette show, burgers & beer. Burgers, fries, cars; microbrew beer served by Albany's Roller Derby Girls [who knew].

I'm 5'11" & 200#, these girls on skates out threatened me quite a bit. Big, pretty, and agile. I wouldn't cross one without skates! Never underestimate a hippo gymnast.

That was pretty cool and yes Dan, Derby girls do kick ass. The teams here in Detroit are awesome. Go Pistolwhippers!

We go see the monster trucks every year at Lebanon Valley. Some of what they do is amazing. As for roller derbies my mom is pretty sure i was concieved at one.

I love that Pastrana (I'm assuming that was him) is such a maniac. The spirit of all the Nitro Circus crew is just fantastic.

I'd guess the engine suffered some decent oil starvation being upside down at high revs, but the publicity of pulling that off is well-worth a rebuilt engine, I suppose. His sponsors will be stoked.
