There are some fairly impressive canyons in ND. I know, because I put oil pipelines in some of them.

Second video is out on the road when I opened her up, very quiet really - windows are up but the power difference is huge!

Sounds awesome!
That chug'n - but that sounded like a "hot camshaft lope"... Sounded sexy!

I used to live in the Black Hills of SD. I would kind of like to see what ND is like to live in but too many places and too little time. Lots of Indians, prairie dogs, and hail there I imagine.

Camshaft lope - is where you have a large lift camshaft - usually for higher horsepower applications (also quite a bit in turbo and supercharged applications)
