ya, it rains at exactly 4:10 every day until 4:35. then it gets REALLY hot. 4:20 is a good time to do something in the shade till it dries out. :)

Oh yes. It's really cold here all the time. I'd rather be hot than cold - it's so much more gratifying to cool off than to have to warm up.

My mechanic where I use to live had a burn out pad at the back of his shop and when it was time for one of the club members to change rears we would get together for a beer or 2 and watch the burn out.  What we did do to make the burnouts better was before the burnout began a small amount of petrol was squirted onto the ground and as the burnout was in full smoke the petrol was ignited with a stick and rag (simple torch).  The end result was the tyre engulfed in flames and was named the "Flaming Burnout"

HINT:  Don't do what I did one tyre change and use too much petrol as it melted my rear guard.....The picture was priceless though :thumb:

You should have found a harley dealership that was having a burn out contest so you would have won $1,000.  :thumb:  :laugh:
