I don't know about riding it head first with no helmet...

But I'll take one too.

"death cart" aptly named I think

I thought we were gona talk about the song "want" by the cure?

how about a landspeed record barstool?

We built an electric barstool to race at World of Speed at Bonneville. We broke the exisiting record of 49.972mph with an average speed over 2 runs of 53.557mph. Similar drivetrain as the drafting stool mentioned earlier but in a CNC frame with custom everything. Rules, video and...

why am I not surprised there is a class for barstools?

electric only? Sure gas could get too fast to be safe for this type of thing, just put in a displacement limit or something. Besides, dumping one of these at speed can't be much worse than a motorcycle.

I'd rather have a motorized Buggy Rollin' suit.

thats freaking awesome...

for the rolling body suit... that vid was awesome...

If I had one of those suits I'd probably just find myself broken at the bottom of the 1st flight of stairs in the vicinity.

I think somebody just invented a new form of motorsport.

wasn't there a guy in france with a suit covered in rollerblade wheels who would zoom down mountain roads on it? I seem to remember seeing a video on it and got some damn good speed up doing it.

He also wore out the wheels every couple of runs

oh, i thought you "WANT" to lose your two front teeth...

yup unfortnatly youtbube is blocked at work :(

Yeah I'd be game for the wheel'd suit. That would be a crazy fun ride. I remember getting stopped by a cop when I was a kid when I hit about 29mph tucked in tight on a skateboard, in base housing. I was scared, really scared. I kept thinking just keep it strait no turns and please lord no pebbles.....that would have sucked.
