Hey, you got your star back!! Congratulations, buddy. It's about time. What was the winning comment?
How does the NHTSA go 38 miles in 21 minutes at a "steady average speed of approximately 75mph"?

@Arken: Not really. A typical single speed mountain bike runs a 2:1 ratio on 26" tires, which equals 163 inches of rollout. Fixies are geared even higher. This one is running a 1:1 ratio (since there are no gears). So even the 36" model only has 113" of rollout. It's actually geared lower than the lower gears on…
Dude, you just learned one of the COOLEST things about rallying! Isn't it even more awesome now?
From Rally America's website: "As an additional challenge, all rally cars must be street legal, since they must traverse public roads with traffic between the competitive timed sections." Pastrana's car in Sian's picture and mine, is racing in a Rally America event (notice the number). Therefore, it must be street…
