A couple years back Evil Twinkie tore it up n' matched Sylvain Tremblay's best time - i just missed a podium finish but Twinx took home the gold. Heard he's gonna be back

pffft jump into line with people you know if you're scared so that way you don't have to worry about gettin' slammed into.

Everybody that we've all met n' caravaned with know the deal - give enough space to dodge impact. Pretty simple. If you think the guy behind you doesn't understand that - then drop behind him.

or just do what mike said - drop to the back of the line. I remember he came in towards the end of my line. He got there safe n' sound.

Here's the problems we've run into in the past:

1. people weren't following directions

2. we're travelling through LA/OC during the morning rush on one of the busiest hwy's.

3. people weren't following directions

4. A lot of the people caravaning have never caravaned with 50+ people before so they bunch up because they're afraid of being left behind or leading

5. people are half awake at 5am in the morning

6. a lot of people like travelling near their friend so when another person tries to jump in between them and their buttbuddy they try and bunch up n' prevent the next guy from moving in - which can (and has) cause dangerous situations

7. ******** at 5am like jumpin' in n' out of our caravan to 'be funny'

8. some people press the brakes...other LIKE TO SMASH IT

9. Some people like to lag and break the caravan causing confusion n' frustration w/those that are trying to keep up with the pack.

10. some people wanted to make a cool entrance on the vid (people tried doing dramatic drive by's lol)
