Well he is a good friend and actually I have a few friends with all about the same mentality (stupid).I even got a dui about 6 years ago myself and I dont even drink but a handfull of times a year and in the last 6 years maybe a handful of times.But I myself also have learned my lesson to never try and stop someone from driving drunk to me it just dont matter anymore if they kill themselves or someone else.The whole reasoning in me believing that way is cause I tried to stop a friend from driving once drunk and ended up getting 15,000 dollars worth of surgury done to my face and yes me and him are no longer friends anymore

Man that sucks, his ear! were the doctors able to save the ear and re-attach?
if not i feel for your friend. It's too bad when good machines go bad(because of the owner) But you did get a sweet project out of the deal!

Something someone said earlier about "friends" really struck a nerve with Me. I've had "friends" in the past that if I were to never have met, I would be a millionaire by now. For all You Guys reading this that are under 25 or so, take my advice and save yourself from a lot of misery. You know those people in your life I am talking about. Have the self confidence and self value to LOSE those LOSERS in your life. Sorry to hijack a thread like that, but believe me, you'll *BLINK* and find out you wasted 20 years of your life being loyal to someone who would throw you under a bus for a bong hit..........

Holy cow! Those pics are hell bent! I am glad you guys post those though.
It gives a reality check!
If throttle was stuck wide open, why not use kill switch or pull in clutch and jam on brakes or was there no time to react?

Yeah, he was alright but he didnt bail off in time. He had a helment on and his head met the trailer if I remember right. That was a few years ago and ITs been a while since we talked about it. I am going to ask him about the kill switch thing though....

That X looks bad.
To bad something like that had to happen. Doing anything drunk that involves machinery is not a good idea
