Nice carbon fiber, it makes it light and rigid. :lol:

On the flip side of this goofy thing, I never understood why they put stereo systems in Ferraris and Lamborghinis. Why would you want to listen to music with an Italian V12 right behind you?

Likely to keep the girlfriend 20+ years your junior from talking too much. :lol:

Na, that's what the gas pedal and seat belts are for. 8)

Well, that is if you don't mind exchanging talking for screaming. :lol:

That adds 3 or 4 horse power right there, doesn't it? :mrgreen:

I would gladly buy the entire neighborhood some of those if it would keep their noisy arse vehicles to themselves. Problem is, they'd probably start mounting speakers on the outside of their cars so they can share it with everyone else. :roll:

I have to confess at a tender age having external speakers for outdoors etc, and playing the start of Christine the movie when stuck in a traffic queue, lot of heads trying to find out where the V8 was.
On a side note, every time I think of tizeye, I get a mental image

Thinking of New Zealand just makes me remember the film and smile

Lol the funny thing is that where Burt Monroe built that bike is not that far from here..the bike itself is in a museum here..the guy was a legend and the movie "The World's Fastest Indian" was a very accurate portrayal of Burts life..

You get better sound reproduction by cranking the drum intro of Van Halen's "Hot for Teacher". :mrgreen: Had some buddies in college that did that.
