    What an absolute hoot. Not condoning the red light running
    or anything, but boy can those guys slip through traffic.

    I liked the part where the one guy just grabbed onto the
    back of some car's trunk or spoiler and let it pull him
    ahead for awhile. Talk about "no rules" racing!

    Whoa! Hey, here comes the next step: School bus limousines!
    Come to think of it, where are the Bluebird SUV
    conversions? Sure, the full-size ones might be a little
    inconvenient for going through the drive thru, but you
    could base it on the short buses. How appropriate is that?

    I think I'm on to something here. ;-)

    This happened to me in a car a while back in downtown
    Toronto. A courier shouted 'heads up' and grabbed the car by
    the open window. I thought it was awesome.

    If you're running Windows, then not having enough room to
    store 50 MB will land you with all kind of troubles. Windows
    needs swapfile space and it can easily gobble up 50 MB just
    opening up simple Word files. Hence, you either have enough
    to store and use the file temporarily or you're soon going
    to have issues.

    The NT-based versions of windows always use a fixed-size
    swapfile, and I normally set Win98 to use a big fixed
    swapfile as well.

    On my XP system, the min page file is 2 GB while the
    max is 4 GB.

    I've had less than 50mb space and no problems. Now I got
    about 75mb, I deleted some stuff. I have Windows 98. JohnnyJ

    The Eliminator is to short, could be a little 'twitchy' on
    the highway. Grand dominator seams a tad excessive. Are you
    offering a picture of the the Dominator? Seams that would be
    baby bear...just right! I would also want to have a brush
    guard installed across the grill, make for nice fun off-
    road, maybe a Rhino!

    The disk space discussion has become irrelevant; the site no
    longer has the file.

    Anybody care to put it up, so I can download it? I
    missed it.

    The way they ride, helmets would likely make little
    difference...
