A question though. What should you call it when you do a coaster across a parking lot and set your quad down right next to someone, or someones car? There should be some type of name for that. Saying that you "coasted" into someone's car doesn't have that ring to it ya know?

My GOD!!! Thank goodness that 1000ceecee chimmed in and posted a thread about this BS!
Anyways.... Bill... you suck... you'll never make it.... your wheelies, videos, and still pics are all garbage..... oh wait... this is what we're not supposed to say to each other!
Seriously... you look like you've got the control on lock. To be able to time out the coaster so it stops within a few feet of Tim's quad is pretty damn good in my book. I've got control like that in a mt. bike coaster... now I'll have to apply that skill to quad stunting when I get the EX!

more like IF you get the EX ive been hearing about you getting a quad since i found this playground... lol 
I want to see someone scrape a highchair and bring it down with engine brake... or any trick for that matter that dosnt require rear brake to come back down from a scrape... this aint happening not with stock gears anyways..

Okay smartass... I guess I deserve that. All talk and no action.... well "hopefully" that'll all change soon. I'm paying off my truck in 4 weeks and having the quad shipped to me right afterwards. It is still winter and I do live in the rockies... so I'm not really pressed for time here. But... as soon as I do get it.... I'll post a pic for ya.

Well... as I said earlier in the week... "I'm done". I'm not getting caught up in anymore BS. So... no matter what anyone writes to start any type of "problem"... I'm not getting involved.
But thanks for explaining the whole "troll" thing....... weirdo!

hmmmmmmmmmmm time to fix my grab bar!
