I'm glad you all have an interest but for the love of god please do not call them "choppers."

A chopper is a motorcycle.

Helicopters are not really all that fast in a straight line. I think some of you may be dissapointed to see a dig race between an Evo and a helo.

What if it were my slow-a$s Evo vs the 'copter?

Not a very good run, but I had a bad day all together

Nice run, that course setup looked very similar to the one when I was there with you.

Was it exactly the same???

How many of you commute to work and take the highways.. and how many go the backroads?

I tried Riverview Road this morning on the way to Independence from Stow/Hudson instead of the highways... took about 25 minutes.. and i didn't have to deal with nitwits reading the paper in traffic on 77..

I honestly just had a "i need shots of an evo from a chopper" go though my head today..

I'm thinking a Cleveland segment of top gear...

Isn't it great?!?!? I work on E.30th near CSU and I've been hearing it all day. I think it's super cool. There were biplanes doing crazy dives and corkscrews (pardon my aviation ignorance...) with smoke trails this morning while I was driving in from the east side. Pretty wild stuff.
