  1. Last time i saw him was at the dyno day last year...RIP Kenny
  2. This was just written on the nbc4 comments area I know a young woman who heard two downshifts of a motorcycle and then the crash. She didn’t see the crash, she heard it from her open apartment window. Interestingly enough, she didn’t hear roaring crotch rockets, she heard downshifting. I firmly believe you can’t come from “NOWHERE” at this intersection. Even if they were going a 100 miles an hour, the driver would have seen them if she were looking. Perhaps they blended in to lights farther down the road, they aren’t as easy to see as a car. I don’t believe they were racing.
  3. My friend got broadsided (in a car) pulling out in front of someone speeding horrendously (in a car) on a two lane road with a crest that limits view and the other driver actually drove off after hitting him, my friend still got a citation for failing to yield
  4. It seems to me from the media that the woman may have been in the wrong by pulling out in front of them. They said there were no skid marks, which means one of two things (to me) 1) he didn't have time to react because they were too close to the intersection or 2) they were trying to go around the car. I did some calculations for reaction time. Avg reaction time is 2.5 seconds. So if he was traveling at 100mph (supposedly) he would have traveled around 366 ft in those 2.5 seconds. For a person going 65 mph (which is the norm on henderson) the reaction time is 238 ft, only a 126 ft difference and time wise a one second difference. Looking at this, it means that the 70 year old lady would have pulled out in front of them when they were a maximum of 370 ft away, and with a normal speed on that road she would have only had 3.5 seconds to clear the intersection. Unless this is lead foot granny, she pulled into the intersection causing the crash...
  5. Sorry to hear. May he rest in peace and my prayers go out to the friends and family.
  6. I don't like hearing talk like that Casper....
  7. The road ia completely straight and the accident happened at an intersection with a light. Also henderson has a limit of 45 and people regularly do 65 through there. While they were probably breaking the law, yes the cager should have been paying more attention
  8. i just drove by there and was wondering what happened...RIP fallen rider
  9. go to a place called mills rd up around rt. 42 in delaware...mild thrills, and sometimes clean road, definitely do a dry run first. http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&q=mills%20rd%20Ohio&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wl go up dublin rd or riverside dr like i said not much but it's close to home and has some twisties
  10. happened to me twice down in hocking by my parents house. One was a turkey the other was a chicken....i laughed my ass off after each time. I was thinking that it would be just my luck that i would be killed on the bike by a turkey...
  11. i had two super soaker 50s back in the day...might still have them actually

  17. That's for damn sure! The one thing that no one should forget is that the military is to defend the Constitution, not necessarily the president. I believe that we (Marines) have the balls to do what others won't and make those hard decisions. Not to mention we can do it with shit on a stick for weapons after two weeks without sleep and no food. Semper Fi!!!!!!
  18. Tim!!! It's Chris from the CSC shop, welcome to the site!
