Here's mine for the day.
When driving the dirt highway from 12 mile to Double Hot at night, do not turn out your headlights while drafting at 60 mph during the night.
Doing so causes extreme panic of other passengers in the vehicle and serious distress to the driver you are drafting due to thier inability to see your behind them.
*note, drafting in this fashion does cause an elevated heart rate and those with serious heart issues and the desire to live should not attempt this activity*
Just ask my passengers, **giggle**

Re: Post Your Black Rock Hints and Tips
Sat, May 14, 2005 - 8:38 PMIf you draft using a staggerd rank formation it is possible to draft at closer distances. I recently demonstrated this technique to someone during a recent excursion to the playa. The learner was able to get within 5 feet of my bumber at 70mph. The advantage of this formation was that we were both able to see what obsticles were ahead of us and were able to manouver independantly if needed. I am however looking for other skilled drivers to practice my high speed formation driving with.

Sun, May 15, 2005 - 6:20 PMO, common 5' is a little far I think the night Natasha is talking about we were all about 2-3 feet apart, all 5 cars doing 70+.
I was fine and so were the other drivers but all passengers were I guess nervous, I really don't understand why?????

Sun, May 15, 2005 - 6:23 PMHere one you never ever want to do:
Come off at 12 mile hit 70 mph and then hit the road burms 100 yards in, your neck and kidneys will never forget you as they all hit the roof of your vehicle then the floor. This also cause someones A-arms to bend.
Just a passenger. -
