Down with Darksides

You can get it back Dave. Just get somewhere 33 seconds faster when you go for your next ride. Must say I was naively hoping the second clip was from the bottom of the hill showing the tyre run over someone or knock a kiddie off a tricycle. :(
Soon as it stops raining I'm going out to get that time back myself! :D

Watch the first one twice cos I thought I must have Blinked and missed something, The second one just showed you need to have rubber in good con to get good start:rolleyes:
 
Obviously there's not a bunch of tree huggers around your area they would have the EPA swarming you :eek: Is that shackle line oil well system in your area we used to have server power houses around here on a cool night you can hear the power houses exhaust sounding off

Those are interesting pictures, were these machines being used to pump oil out of the ground?
What are all the wires close to the ground for?

Top picture shows a traditional power source that would be connected to the bullwheels.
The next one is an example of the offset "bullwheels"
They were housed inside a power house
The bullwheels had several power rods coming from each one...they have an alternating motion and a large "eye" at their end where the "rod lines" to different "oil jacks" can be connected via a hook.

The one picture shows a 90 degree option for directing the rod line.
Some rod lines are raised, some run at ground level...
