  1. This one's is 8 seconds. 3 seconds + .1*50 = 8 seconds. This one's is 9 seconds. 3 seconds + 1 second + .1*50 = 9 seconds. Correct, except it is 300 feet for 250 pounds or less and 1 foot for every pound over 250. Aside from the math, nicely done. Derek Derek, The factor is 0.01 not 0.1. 50 x 0.01 = 0.5. hense 3.5 sec. and 4.5 sec. 8 or 9 sec. would be between 800 and 900 ft. It is 300 not 250, my bad.

  10. Who do you think is picking up the bill? Who do you think is picking up the bill for all the advertising that the big three auto companies and Bud does.

  13. James, I should be a Elsinore this weekend, grab me and I will show you. I make my own swoops and use bungee cord for part of them. It allows for a greater range. One thing people forget about when using swoops, part of going fast is being able to stop. You can carry more speed longer if you have and know how to use swoops.
