As posted somewhere...... oh yea. SAI tour.

Went for a nice ride with Gary Patterson in the FIA, track ready !! Well... His side of the car (left) had a little bitty wind screen, My side...... NOTHING ..........

Well, let me tell ya, everything was OK up to 100 mph
At 120, the wrinkles on my face were slapping my ears !
At 130, my eye lids would not open, even tho I wear glasses,
I guess it was natures way of keeping the eyeball in the socket!
At 140, the wrinkles at each side of my face were slapping each other silly at the back of my head, Eye slits were lengthing around my head.
At 150 mph, my whole upper body was bouncing and viborating from the thrashing my face was trying to endure, I tried, and tried to open my eyes, and Finally I popped them open, and guess what I saw!!!!!!!
I saw for the first time in my life , the inside of both my ears at the same time. I must have looked like the Road Runner with a rocket up his A$$
The thing is, all this took place in a matter of maybe 15 seconds!
Maybe it is beliveable, cause when I looked in my right ear, guess what I saw!!!! I saw my left eye peering at my right eye, and visa versa!! I like to think, rather than having a hole in my head, it was the G-Force effect.
It was still one he!! of a ride, Thanks again Gary.

Bo

P.S. Everything returned to its normal place, when we re-entered
the 2 digit speed zone !!! I think !!!!!
