    Raised in mid-west, spent 40 years in SoCal…….Lived 25 miles from where the last Major quake on the San Andreas erupted……lived a few miles from the Northridge epicenter……..now back in tornado country……which is easier on nerves and sleeping. When Northridge hit at 4:31 AM, there was no warning, and the ground really shook for 30-45 seconds. Glad I’m now gone before the “big one” eventually hits……it won’t be pretty. At least here, you get plenty of warning to get to a safe place. Was in Aurora, MO the day/night of the Joplin tornado……forgetting the weather radar the local sirens went off twice that night……..I’ll take severe storms and tornadoes over a major (6.0 or higher) eq any day of the week

    Same seal, same place? Be time to look at where it goes outside and what runs inside. May not be the installer.

    Attempts have been made, with no luck from what I've seen.

    She takes a spill in that outfit and she won't stop sliding till she hits the lodge......or some fella willing to take a hit to slow her down.

    Fast is relative……had speedo bouncing on a 95 twin turbo Z…….built to 500 hp, 187 in Turbo S Porsche, 176 in C-6 Corvette, 155 in BMW 550, but 154 on Aprilia motorcycle was the best experience…….no way could I have come off the seat with all the suck power going through my butt

    I’m 74 and skied Park City 2 years ago…….once you really know how to ski, it doesn’t take much energy etc. Granted won’t do the bumps anymore…..especially the way we used to. Did patrol at Loveland in the 70’s…..typically carried three sets of skis……cruisers, powder skis, and shorty (180 Kniesel Short Comps).
