Hummmmm. So I'm not the only one who has been bitten by the bike bug? But I know that I'm probably not smart enough to avoid that sort of speed temptation and on two wheel no less. One of the fellows at the local grain elevator is a bike nut and claims he has a bike that he has had up to 356 km/hr (wow!). I still derive enjoyment from brisk acceleration but try not to use too many gears for the enjoyment.

Another plus for a future move to Fairview, being 35 minutes closer to both Dawson Creek and Ft. St. John for autocrossing where the car can be exercised more. Still only in first gear though!

So sure, would another 50 hp make that much difference to me with a new cam? Probably not. Would a cooler sounding rumble make me do it? Oh ya!

Then again I have really toyed with the idea of getting a Smart car too so who knows what I'm thinking about when it comes to car power.

"To be seeding in but a few hours, perchance to dream!"

Cheers,

Garry
