Good thing you were taking pictures while driving

shhhhh...don't tell him!    I'm 6'4" 230lbs so it was a tight squeeze and the pedals are very close together for someone w/ size 12 dogs.

Good thing you were taking pictures while driving

No doubt wow! Did you lean on it at all? That is where they become impressive.

My Bro has an early RT10 model.  The thing is brutally fast. One Friday night at the bracket drags, I made a run in his. Leaving the tree in 2nd gear, hazing the tires the whole time, I looped it about 300 feet off the line when wheel speed still wasn't catching up with available traction. After turning it around and pointing it in the right direction, I still ran a 105 mph trap speed from mid track. The e.t. was something like 45 seconds though.

Not really...tires are shot...and was shoe horned in there, plus the pedals are too close, didn't feel comfortable going full throttle...maybe with a little more seat time!!
