So why did you write "over 120 mph"?

Terminator - It is against RCU rules to 'bait a post' - or to use a headline to get people to read a post that is unrelated. What is the point of this thread? Either explain, or its going to be deleted.

Everyone Else - Although you may be confused, try not to bash other members in the forums, cool?

Did you calibrate the radar gun and call the world record books? What kind of chassis are you using?

Your link is an Error 404 page. By clicking on the link, it redirects to a promotional page.

Maybe he lives is a big city and he threw it off a building. I gotta believe terminal velocity on one of those tumbliing wouldn't be too fast, 120 sounds about right.

Do we start taking bets on whether we see this video proof anytime soon?

nice post there tamiyamad..............or should we say terminator 3

personally i think that unless you come up with a valid link and soon, that Nitro should delete this thread and if he has the power to do so, i think he should ban you from being able to post as well

Actually - You are correct - I checked, and the IP addresses for these two screen names are the same. This is the same member.

Tamiyamad is terminator 3.

Due to where this thread has lead - I am now locking it.

If anyone wants to discuss this further, please feel free to PM me.
