Default So who in the Lake Michigan area is going to take me over 100mph this year?

I have a list of things I would like to accomplish during my life.

1. 200mph on land
2. 100mph on water
3. Ride along with Blue Angels, Thunderbirds, or similar

Ive been 93 on the water.
187 on land.
450ish in the air (turned on my GPS while flying to Miami )

200 on land will have to wait until next year. My bike runs just over 190 and I have been to 187. I just don't have the money for the turbo this year.

Anyone want to help me out with #2?

PS, Doesnt it piss you off when they take these bimbo news people up in the fighter around airshow time? They should raffle off that ride and donate the money to a good charity. That would at least give the average guy who has dreamed all his life about it a chance.

I was actually going to make a donation to the Christopher Reeve foundation having had a small taste of nerve damage myself. I may have to rethink that now.

If you don't think your back will hold up, I'll take your place and tell you about it. You know me, anything to help.

Chris
That sounds like a good plan. I'd love to take a ride on that boat.

I'm finding that you have a mean streak. We close on the 30th. Don't choke on any bones.

1.) Been there, done that. In a Volkswagen. (New 12 cylinder VW Phaeton, soon to be available in the US, computer slightly mucked with ...)

2.) Still working on it ...

3.) Sometimes Air Chance runs a special: Fly the Concorde on a Business ticket ... not worth it.
