My son (33) had a Stark Varg. Looks like any other dirtbike. You can set the “horsepower” at whatever level you want up to 80 hp. At full power it’s faster than a 450. On my backyard track, which is 1/2 mile long, I think he rode it at the 30 hp setting and it ripped. Pricey (around $11-12k) but a solid bike. Top speed is around 75 mph.



If he’s wanting something more the size of an 85, my grandson (12) was tearing up the track on an Altis Sigma 98v. Easily jumps all the doubles he jumps on his GasGas 85. Around 27 hp and tops out at 70-75 mph. Costs a little under $6k.

I’m tired of those on this board who say he doesn’t deserve to be in the HOF. Of course he does.

Exactly. In his 11 full seasons at LSU, he had 5 seasons with 11 or more wins and another 3 with 10 wins. 2 Championship appearances with 1 title. He was a winner and his players would run through a brick wall for him.

For the critics, give me a list of coaches with more success this century outside of Saban and Meyer.

This is just Saban scaring away the competition so he can take the job.

I think we get to see if Nuss’ play was due to injury or due to Sloan’s playcalling. Nuss will start, but he’ll be on a short leash.

It really is impressive how thorough border patrol agents are in Texas. Most of the roads I hunt for snakes in West Texas are close to the border. I’ve been stopped so many times at night after stopping on side of the road, making quick turn arounds, hopping out of my vehicle and running across the road, etc. And the agents are so nice - they never give you any attitude. They just do their job, do it well, and do it in such a pleasant way.

I don’t step into the dealership until I’m picking up the car, but I always know exactly what I want through online research.
I use cargurus to find every dealer that has my car within a 500 mile radius. I pick the few best advertised deals and play them against each other with just a few email exchanges (and get a value on my trade-in). After a couple days I pick the best deal then go get my car.
I’ve never had a dealer renege on a deal, try to add crap to it, or alter my trade value. I’ve saved as much as $6-7k over the best local dealers by buying from high volume dealers out of state. I’ve bought 10 cars in the past 10 years, and all but a couple have been purchased this way.

but I keep replaying in my mind him going for it on 4th down on his own 25, up 12 in the 3rd quarter, this past Saturday.

I’ll take that over BK not going for it on 2nd & 20 and 3rd & 26 while down 7 in the waning minutes of the 4th quarter against Vandy

Did you see the stupid decision he made to go for it on 4th and 2 from somewhere near his own twenty yard line in the Oklahoma game?

Well him being gay doesn’t make you not retarded.

…they’re not mutually exclusive.

As Alx said, they tend to be mixed. You’ll have some species like racers that almost always bite, some like Eastern hognoses or mud snakes that pretty much never bite, but most species tend to fall in the middle ground. You’ll find some kings bitey and some not so bitey. That even applies to many rattlesnake species.

Then you’ll have some that you think are docile and you’re just handling them casually with no indication that they want to bite, and out of the blue they chomp down on you. One of my vivid childhood memories was a seemingly tame king snake my brother was holding for quite a while, which then suddenly tried to swallow his hand. That’s why I only take venomous free-handling so far - you can never trust a snake.:lol:

ETA: Non-venomous snake bites really don’t hurt bad at all. Much less than a bee sting. I always say the best way to overcome a fear of snakes is to let one bite you. It’s not really a big deal.
