    It's not that bad actually. The speed is the fun part, I suppose the turns might take a bit of getting used to.

    Now, if YOU were the only thing keeping you on the ride lol...that would be a different story.

    It looks like fun, it also looks like you could splatter your brains on those stumps or get a nice rash on that wilderness area.

    Looks like fun but after a few runs it would be a bit boring. Spice it up a little and do it at night with random **** that jumps out at you like during a hayride on Halloween. Now that I would sign up for over and over and over.
    Everything matters. That is all.
    Money cannot buy happiness, but it sure can buy a bad **** boat to pull up along side it though.

    That was as fun a riding with that motorcyclist through that traffic at 120 miles an hour video.

    Thanks!!

    I think that stick is a brake handle though. I guess the rider who took the video did not pull/push on the brake handle during that run. It would suck to be thrown out of the cart/buggy over that rough timber section. I agree, during the winter and at night.....awsome!!
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.
