Screen Print Break on my STREET LUGE!!! (Mt Scott, Portland OR 6/12/11-raw gopro vid)

Taking a break from screen printing and press building: Running my newest luge design/build(M2 'Mystic') on Mt. Scott. 83a Flywheels on RII'180's. 28.50 lbs. Did not have my GPS but I have run this hill so often(prior GPS 54.4)that I know I beat that spead here today. Probably because on the 54.4 mph, I was running Seismic Speedvents, a fast wheel but not as fast as Flywheels.
If I can ever get a spotter for the mid turn to the west, so I can use the whole road/inside of, and so keep my speed through that turn...I think 60 is easily doable. As it is I can fudge the yellow line a bit and have some visibility through that turn, but it is still not the the most effective use of that turn. If I ever get rich I am going to have a full time driver and a group of spotters!

I LOVE street luging...designing and building them just as much. I never get itno anything it seems(screen printing included)unless I am into the mechanics/design/build aspects as much as the 'do' art. I don't just want to know 'that' something works, I want to know HOW it works and make it work BETTER if I can. I do it for a living in Screen Printing...but I do it in everything else I enjoy to. THAT is much of what is 'profit' to me.

@NewYorkPaintballers Damn...I was hoping nobody would notice! i almost did not post the video because of that one moment :D I can't believe I was distracted by a nickel!!! And I sound like 'Larry' from the Three Stooges' when I see it. I guess it was like 'good luck' or something...I normally don't react to change on the ground. Not like that. O_o makes me wonder what i'd do if I found a $20???????
