Took a Raider out for a demo at Daytona... I went "two up" with the misses... Oh poor her!
The guide turned to me, just before we pulled out of the lot and said, "You're right behind me... you got the best seat in the house... Just listen to my pipes and keep up..." So, I'm thinking... OK maybe this will be more fun than being in the back of the pack...

WHOLLY CATS! Man, Oh Man! What a ride...! Six Flags couldn't even come close to this thrill ride!

We were doing 50 on an empty back road when I heard to guide down shift into fourth and throttle up... I figured he was only going to goose it a little so I was a little slow on the uptick... When I realized he was making a "run", I kicked it into third, twisted the throttle back full and ZOOM! My cheeks were flapping in the breeze! Next think I know, I was in fourth and doing eighty with fifth to go and the guide was still pulling away, So I went for it, with misses hanging on for all she was worth, just a hootin and hollerin like she was on a mechanical bull ride! She was having as much fun as I was...! (Although, I gotta say... At one point, I think I looked in the rear view and saw her legs flapping in the wind back there!) And, I'm not too certain, but if it weren't for the shape of those cafe' racer handle bars, that thing has... we may have both been sitting on the Stratoliner that was a little speck in the rearview at this point,

Man! anyone who's thinking about getting one of these rockets needs to do two things before they take delivery... First, take the astronaut training course and second, get a specialty license plate that says "TROUBLE" on it...

BTW: I still have a grin...
