 He's a great rider, I remember his then-exclusive double whips in old NWDs... And I'm sure he keeps the Lincoln just out of sentiment, but seeing him behind the wheel of that 460 cid, 2.5 ton cruise ship talk bollocks about light and efficient Euro cars is a bit ridiculous to me Smile

 That's the joy of having a car for fun! I doubt he takes that boat far outta the neighborhood.

 Are you kidding me? What a waste of time. I respect Kyle Strait and everything, but come on. That is not a video worth showing. I just skipped through the last 4 minutes. I agree with Pinkbike supporting the athletes and all, but that was worthless. If anything, that made the athletes, and the people trying to promote them, look worse.

Please don't show stuff like that again.

Thanks,

Liam.

 Old V8 sounds like a good choice, GT and FOX sounds even better. Good 4U dude! Next time try to remember about seat belt 'cause police can put U in a STRAITjacket Wink

 Dude its not against the law in america to not be wearing a seatbelt.
  • 7 0
 On cars pre 1964 that would be the case, because it wouldn't have seatbelts, but his is a '69. So he has to wear the seatbelt because its the law Cop
  • 1 0
 Yes, pre '64 you don't need to wear a seatbelt IF it doesn't have them. If the car has them (which his does anyways) then it's the law to wear it. My dad has gotten this ticket in his 62 Vette because it has seatbelts installed.

 actually its 1966.
