You know Tom, in your wheelchair, you could wear one of those bicycle helmets like what's his name where's in the Tour de France. What's his name? Oh! Lance Armstrong. Yeah, and the spande

spelling?) too. Aerodynamics is the way to go.

This could be a new sport. Tour de Wheelchairs. After 10 mins going about 75 mph, you could look like this ----->

Maybe Garrett will sell me his malfunctioning SuperCharger for real cheap...hmm, I'm not sure if my insurance would cover that kind of wheelchair upgrade. New tires and spokes is probably all I can get out of them. Well, there's always my social security check!!! Ah, there's hope yet

But, problem is my wheelchair is a 97 model, so I don't want to put alot of money into it if the lower and front gaskets are going to go bad on it. I've already been preparing for the problem by researching it on www.leakingwheelchairs.com

I crack myself up

Inda,

I'd have to strengthen the handling on it for those speeds. I wonder if Beltech make a drop kit for it?

I say forget all that. Go 4x4. I would get a suspension lift instead of a body left. Maybe go....um....5 or 6 feet.

Of course, you would need the waterproof seats or seat covers. Maybe go with wider tires in the back. I don't know if yours comes with good springs or shocks (or any at all. Those '97's were iffy back then.), but get the extreme, hulk shocks. You won't be disappointed.

Just my 2¢.

I'd have to spread some silicone sealant around my IV so I wouldn't get any water leakage whilst off roading. Probably a snorkel and scuba mask as well, heck, I'll already have the oxygen tank right?

And uh, with my social security and medical bills.....I'll need that 2 cents
