Default More Red Bull Insanity

Check this out: Red Bull Energy Drink - USA - Red Bull Metallicross - Red Bull Metallicross

It's free (except for parking) to the public. Happens on a Saturday and looks like it will be an absolute hoot to watch. If you live here in the ATL then it's a sure fire way to busy yourself for a night.

It would be a lot more interesting if they'd give the riders tazers and clubs. Or maybe those rotating swords like they put on the Roman chariot axles...

Tazers & Clubs? Those are for punks, I say give 'em MG42's mounted on a co-ax handlebar mount coupled with a .50 for a spotting round.

Reminds me of some testing they were doing in the Everglades on militarized airboats. They set some up with 50 cal machine guns on the front. The guns created so much recoil the boat would stop if the guns were fired forward. If they fired to the side they frequently capsized...
