I was wondering if you know that the front lifts off the ground when you are racing? Or are you to busy to take notice?
I agree that shot makes a great Avtar

I had no idea that the wheels were off the ground.... When I reviewed the videos, I noticed the front kinda bouncing... but I didn't think that the wheels actually came off the ground...

Way to go Olivier, keep it up and you will have to get a shiny wheelie bar to stick out the back.
